Simple IEC 61131 engineering with tool integration in MULTIPROG Suite
With the open IEC 61131 MULTIPROG Suite engineering platform a system is available which simplifies handling of automation solutions even for complex distributed plants and even if different fieldbus systems are used. For example the suite can consist of the following components:
- MULTIPROG for IEC 61131 PLC programming
- Fieldbus configurator for the bus configuration
(e.g. for connecting PROFINET components)
- Visualization software
Complete performance and all advantages of modern automation software "under one roof"!
With integration engineering becomes universal which makes it easier to handle. The data of all associated tools are compatible and kept consistent. This way simple scalable solutions from only one or two of the described tools up to the complete suite can also be used.

Advantages for user and manufacturer due to integrated platform
For manufacturers of automation devices, with the MULTIPROG Suite, an automation system is available which is open and fieldbus-independent.
When developing new systems, a lot of integration efforts can be saved with this platform, which results in significantly decreased market launch times. |

Open base for individual, integrated automation solutions
MULTIPROG SUITE is available to automation solution manufacturers as open basis for own developments, which renders the usually necessary coordination and costs for integration superfluous.
This way, you as manufacturer of automation devices can add your own tools and thus the core of your know-how to an integrated engineering tool and thus profit from the use of the standard technologies with regard to cost and time savings. The platform enables a higher level of integration, which leads to a working method which is even more modular - and results in crucial simplifications and cost savings.

Workspaces provide an overview
Each of the tools integrated in the MULTIPROG Suite is housed in its own workspace. |
 |
 |
| |
This way, you can easily switch between IEC 61131 programming, visualization, bus configuration, connection of the variables with the process data. At the same time, each workspace can be freely configured, i.e. depending on your requirements, you can combine elements and controls of the different workspaces. |

Common data management
The Suite is completely responsible for the data management of each tool. You do not need to manage individual files (device files, bus configuration project, visualization project etc.), or worry about the consistency of the data: MULTIPROG Suite stores the data of all tools in a project and takes over their complete management.

IEC 61131 programming with MULTIPROG
A central component of the Suite is the IEC 61131 programming system MULTIPROG with all features that are also provided by the "standalone" version: apart from many other features, powerful editors, clear project management, comfortable debug functions for tests, commissioning and maintenance as well as support of various resources are also available. All these functions enable intuitive and target-oriented programming.
Integration of the XML Component Builder into the IEC 61131 programming
Due to its open architecture, MULTIPROG enables integration of external program parts. These so-called add-ins enable the data exchange via the Automation Interface and allow system configuration using XML. Additionally it is possible to distribute a PLC program over several PLCs and debug them simultaneously. |

Machine visualization
In the "Visualization" workspace of the MULTIPROG Suite you will find the ProVisIT machine visualization software. The complete performance range, identical with the standalone development version, is available to you. Of course, this includes ProVisIT Runtime that is used to switch the visualization project online. The data of the visualization project are automatically integrated into the MULTIPROG Suite project. |
