Leomatic Automation
Builder is
a PLC programmer tool for Windows PC.
Our PLC integrates all the
machine-logic and motion control
instructions.
LAB allows PLC programming and testing also in run-time, for
more practical and faster work-sessions
on automatic machine controlled
by Leomatic systems.

Hardware requirements
-
Automation Builder
may be executed on any PC (industrial,
desktop, laptop, notebook), equipped with Windows
operating system (Windows 2000, XP, Vista or Seven).
PNC system can be directly connected to:
- a standard or virtual COM port of the PC (via a
standard cable or an adapter);
- a USB port of the PC (via a commercial USB cable).
Software characteristics
Automation Builder
is a wide window on a PNC system, allowing inspection on the
whole system; it also allows data/parameters programming and
variables forcing, so for a technician it may be a powerful
and versatile instrument.
Its look is very similar to a progressive development system,
user configurable; work-screen may be divided into some
functional zones, each of them containing a specific data-group
representation based on the context.
A "solution" may group more than one "project"; a "project" may
involve more than one automation "node" (a "node" is a Leomatic PNC
system as well as a group of Leomatic SYSTEM5 modules).
Here below is
shown a typical Automation Builder screen, in which you may see:
- the structured representation of the project components, on
the middle-right;
- the edit window, on the middle-left;
- the output window, on the bottom-left, with the results of
compilation;
- the property window, on the bottom-right, related to the
selected project component.
