At Schneider Electric Training Center, we are introduced how to use PLC, especially Twido PLC.

 

What is Twido?

TwidoSuite is a full-featured, graphical development environment for creating,configuring, and maintaining automation applications for Schneider Electric Twido programmable controllers.

A programmable controller reads inputs, writes to outputs, and solves logic based on a control program. Creating a control program for a Twido controller consists of writing a series of instructions in one of the Twido programming languages.

Twido Languages

The following languages can be used to create Twido control programs:

  •  Instruction List Language:

An Instruction List program is a series of logical expressions written as a sequence of Boolean instructions. A program written in Instruction List language consists of a series of instructions executed sequentially by the controller. The following is an example of a List program.


  •  Ladder Diagrams:

A Ladder diagram is a graphical means of displaying a logical expression. Ladder diagrams are similar to relay logic diagrams that represent relay control circuits. Graphic elements such as coils, contacts, and blocks represent instructions.The following is an example of a Ladder diagram.


  • Grafcet Language:

Grafcet language is made up of a series of steps and transitions. Twido supports the use of Grafcet list instructions, but not graphical Grafcet. The Grafcet analytical method divides any sequential control system into a series of steps, with which actions, transitions, and conditions are associated. The following illustration shows examples of Grafcet instructions in List and Ladder programs respectively.
