About Logix Designer project components
A
Logix Designer
application project includes the following basic components:
These components work together as follows:
Project Component | Definition |
|---|---|
Task | Provides scheduling and priority information for a set of one or more programs. When you create a new project, the software automatically creates a continuous task. When this task completes a full scan, it immediately restarts. |
Program | Each task requires at least one program.
|
Routine | Provides the executable code for the project in a controller (similar to a program file in a PLC or <SLC> controller). Each routine uses a specific programming language (e.g., ladder logic, function block diagram, sequential function chart, or structured text). |
MainRoutine | When a program executes, its main routine executes first. Use the main routine to call other routines (subroutines), using the Jump to Subroutine (JSR) instruction. |
Subroutine | Any routine other than the main routine or fault routine. To execute a subroutine, use a Jump to Subroutine (JSR) instruction in another routine, such as the main routine. |
