Project types
There are different project types available in logiccloud. The project type defines the structure of the project and the available features:
PLC with HMI
Section titled “PLC with HMI”This project type is used for creating PLC programs with a graphical user interface. The project contains the following elements:
- POUs (Program Organization Units):
- Programs
- Function blocks
- Functions
- Type definitions
- Global variables
- Configuration
- Access variables
- Configuration variables
- Application configuration
- Tasks
- Program configurations (the programs that are executed in the defined tasks)
- Libraries
- HMI screens - resolution-based views with one or more pages
PLC only
Section titled “PLC only”This project type is used for creating PLC programs without an HMI. The project contains the same elements as the PLC with HMI project type, except for the HMI section.
Library
Section titled “Library”This project type is used for creating libraries that can be used in other projects. The project contains only POUs (Program Organization Units) and type definitions.
Library projects can be added to other projects by importing them. The imported library can be used in the project by adding the library to the project configuration. All elements of the library are available in the project that imports the library.
