SBC Software
A standard software – for all device types – now and in the future
Applications can be ported over long
periods of time and across all product
lines.
Virtualization is the key to reusable
program code. Java and Microsoft.Net
work in the same way. Hardware-de-
pendent compilation of applications, e.g.
as is normal for soft PLC systems, is
obsolete.
Saia PG5® Core
A tool for all platforms
The control electronics should have the
same lifecycle as the systems technol-
ogy. It must be possible to adapt and
extend at any point in this cycle.
The compatibility and free portability of
systems/machine software is ensured
by an overall product generation of
18-25 years. This only works if engineer-
ing software is developed fully in-house
and thus relies on “interpreted program
code”. This requires more hardware
resources but enables the portability of
user software across multiple genera-
tions of controllers.
Old application programs can be taken over for new Saia PCD® controllers and further processed with the

We supply our devices with a virtual ICA machine. This“machine”always remains the same even if the hardware on
it changes. Your application will always run on all device platforms – now and in the future.
