DANSK DSF/PREN 61131-10 PDF

This standard specifies an XML based exchange format for the export and import of IEC 61131-3 projects. A complete IEC 61131-3 project implemented in an IEC 61131-3 environment can be transferred between different programming environments . It allows for the exchange of configuration elements, data types, and POUs written in: • the textual language, Instruction List (IL), • the textual language, Structured Text (ST), • the graphical language, Ladder Diagram (LD), • the graphical language, Function Block Diagram (FBD), and • Sequential Function Chart (SFC). The exchange format is specified as a corresponding XML schema. The XML schema is an independent file with the .xsd extension and as such part of this specification. A description of this schema is contained in this standard. It is assumed that the reader of this standard is familiar with XML technology. Figure 1 provides an example overview of the usage of the XML exchange format. Different tools may produce and consume XML based IEC 61131-3 information.
