ISaGRAF is the most powerful SoftLogic package on the market. ISaGRAF software is composed of three features:

 
     
 

(1) A single design environment¡G

 
 
 
ISaGRAF provides a single design environment - ISaGRAF workbench, which can be installed in windows 95, 98, 2000, XP, users can fully use the workbench to design ISaGRAF PACs which in different types or different platforms, Ex. ICPDAS PACs: I-8XX7, I-7188EG/XG, W-8X47, £gPAC-7186EG. That is mean users just need to learn the single software, can run the application in different controller.
 
     
  (2) Provide six PLC syntax¡G  
 
 
ISaGRAF is the software that supports five of IEC61131-3 PLC Language, including Sequential Function Chart¡]SFC¡^¡BQuick Ladder Diagram¡]LD¡^¡BFunction Block Diagram¡]FBD¡^¡BStructured Text¡]ST¡^and Instruction List¡]IL¡^five language, it also supports sixth PLC language - Flow Chart¡]FC¡^. This flexibility enables users to choose the language that best suits their knowledge, style and the nature of the application.
 
     
  (3) Easily integrate to the HMI software and MMI¡G  
 
 
ISaGRAF supports Modbus communication protocol, the user designed application can be easily connected to the various types of HMI software and MMI.
 
     
     
  ISaGRAF Workbench  
 
The ISaGRAF workbench software includes following syntax and functions:
 
 
Graphical Editors for programming:
  • Quick Ladder Diagram
  • Function Block Diagram
  • Sequential Function Chart
  • Flow Chart
Text Editors for programming:
  • Instruction List
  • Structured Text
Functions:
  • Application download
  • On-line debugger and controller
  • Simulation
  • Cross referencing
  • Project management
 
  • Document generation
  • Backup and Restoration of applications
  • Graphic debugging animation
 
     
   
     
  Quick LD Editor  
 
The Ladder Diagram (LD) is one of the most familiar methods of representing logical equations and simple actions. Furthermore contacts representing input arguments and coils representing output results are utilized.

The ISaGRAF Quick LD Editor offers you the best compromise between high level graphic capabilities and easy to use keyboard driven programming. With the ISaGRAF graphic editing tools the user can mix LD and FBD programming on the same chart. Any function or function block of the library can be called from this editor.
 
     
  FBD Editor  
 
The Function Block Diagram (FBD) is a graphics-based language which allows the user to build complex procedures by taking existing function blocks from the ISaGRAF library, and wiring them together on the screen.

ISaGRAF includes a library with more than 60 standard blocks ready to use. And others are available from each target's blocks. For ex. The ICP 8xx7 series.
 
     
  SFC Editor  
 
The Sequential Function Chart (SFC) divides the process cycle into a number of well-defined steps, separated by transitions. SFC is the core language of the IEC61131-3 standard. The other languages are used to describe the actions performed within the steps and the logical conditions for the transitions. Parallel processes can be easily described using SFC.
 
     
  Structured Text Editor  
 
Structured Text (ST) is a high level structured language with a syntax similar to Pascal but more intuitive to the automation engineer. This language is mainly used to implement complex procedures that cannot be easily expressed with graphics-based languages (IF / THEN / ELSE, FOR, WHILE...).
 
     
  Instruction List Editor  
 
Instruction List (IL) is a low-level language, similar to the simple- text PLC languages. In August 1996, the ISaGRAF IL editor received the certificate of PLC open compliance with a class-rating of IEC61131-3.
 
     
  Flow Chart Editor  
 
Flow Chart (FC) is a non-IEC61131-3 language. It was added into ISaGRAF in 1998 beginning with Version 3.3. FC is a graphics-based language. It combines "test", "action", "flow", and other mechanisms to perform a control process
