MULTIPROG.NET - the new IEC 61131 programming system

The functional view of machines and systems will be decisive in automation engineering in the future. Which means that programming according to IEC 61131 is still an important part of the functional concepts, but does not necessarily represent the leading view. For this reason, it becomes more and more important to allow the integration of the IEC 61131 programming into existing .NET-based interfaces, together with tools used for configuration, parameterization, visualization, construction, etc. There is a demand for the integration of software components, the scaling of applications and the consistency of tools and platforms.

MULTIPROG.NET - forward-looking based on Automation Framework

As we are convinced that we are on the right and forward-looking path with our .NET construction kit Automation Framework, we are currently developing our new IEC programming platform MULTIPROG.NET on the basis of Automation Framework. It offers all possibilities of today's .NET software and thus fulfills the requirements regarding functional engineering. These capabilities are combined with the features of most modern IEC programming - the product of our long-term experience as the leading provider of automation software.

MULTIPROG.NET is

• component-based
• easily configurable via XML
• scalable - from simple editor application up to complete platform
• complete consistent software
• easy and intuitive to use

Open - scalable - component-based

MULTIPROG.NET - Approved functionalities combined with new technology results in maximum efficiency

MULTIPROG.NET is currently developed. It will provide the features of the IEC programming system MULTIPROG or MULTIPROG Suite that are long-term approved in practice. These functionalities will be expanded by new features and the operational concept of modern .NET software.

MULTIPROG.NET at a glance

• Component-based. This technology allows the integration of third-party and own components into the MULTIPROG.NET Component Frame. And, of course, the integration of MULTIPROG.NET components into third-party and own frameworks.
  
  Use MULTIPROG.NET to generate your completely consistent software platform that combines the tools required for all engineering steps from planning and configuration, programming up to visualization of an automation system into one frame.

• Configurable and scalable: From customizing the user interface, the editors (including the project tree) up to the Wizards - all components of MULTIPROG.NET can be individually configured, switched on and off and expanded by own components. The resulting application exactly matches your requirements regarding the functional scope and also the look and feel. Read more about this under "Individual Solutions" (see below).

• Easy handling due to new operational concept: The most modern .NET components offer an even better handling, for example by extended drag and drop functionality, improved editor functions or engineering steps.
  
  With the result: MULTIPROG.NET allows an even more comfortable and faster development of your PLC application program!

• Configuration and programming of several controls in one project. Parameterization data and the application can be downloaded simultaneously to all target systems in the network with only one command.
