Ide Overview

Get oriented in the logiccloud IDE — the in-browser environment where you author IEC 61131-3 logic: the project tree, the Structured Text (Monaco) editor, and the sidebar tabs.

  • Prerequisites: A project you can open (see Projects).
  • Required role/permission: Editor/Admin to edit; a Viewer can open the IDE but the editor is read-only (see Viewer (read-only) overview).
  • Settings that affect behavior:
    • Project type decides which sections appear — e.g. an HMI section exists only for PLC with HMI projects (see Project types).
    • Project access controls whether you can edit or only view.
  1. Open a project’s IDE at /portal/workspace/ide/:id (from /portal/projects, open a project).
  2. Use the project tree (left) to navigate POUs, type definitions, global variables, and configuration.
  3. Open a POU to edit it in the Structured Text editor (Monaco) in the center.
  4. Use the sidebar tabs to switch between project areas and tools.
  5. Save your work; build from the build action when ready (see Builds).
