PLCEdit 2.1.0

PLCEdit 2.1.0 is designed to help you take full advantage of a cross-platform editor for POU files (program organization unit).

The product can help you:

• Read and edit POU files, compatible with Moeller SucoSoft and easySoftCoDeSys, CoDeSys v2.3.x export files, Siemens IL and SCL sources. and KW-Software .IL and .ST sources
• Edit and create different types of files, PROGRAM, FUNCTION_BLOCK, FUNCTION and GLOBAL_VARIABLE_LIST.

• Everything what PLCEdit can do is open some POU files, edit them slightly and store them back into a compatible format - it is not an IDE. PLCEdit is an easy to use notepad which starts up simply, without any deamons or background Apps and it will not bend your Windows registry.
• This small App allows you to view, edit, create and to print POU files. But PLCEdit can be more for you. The program includes a batch converter to prepare exisiting POUs for another PLC platform. Maybe you have a folder based version management which contains the function blocks as single files. In this case PLCEdit can be used as a reader which is able to save file paths as a session. You can increase your version management with sessions of a POU's development line.
