Saia PG5® Fupla (function block diagram)
Fupla is the SBC proprietary function block diagram editor. It differs
in many respects from other graphic programming interfaces:
One Fupla file may contain several program blocks. This means
that one file can encompass an entire machine function. In
symbolic programming, each program block is given an
individual symbol name. This prevents collisions during the
build.
Fupla blocks are organised into pages. Each page can produce
several outputs so that entire functions can be viewed at a
glance on one page.
Graphic functions (FBoxes) not only have inputs and outputs,
but also parameter windows for configuration and online
modification.

Comment:
The Kopla Editor (contact plan) is an integral part of Saia PG5® Fupla Editor. Unlike conventional graphic programming
environments, FBoxes and contact plan elements can be combined in a single graphic.
Saia PG5® S-Edit (instruction list IL)
Saia PG5® S-Edit (instruction list IL)
The editor for the strong instruction set of Saia PCD®. S-Edit
combines an editor and online debugger in one interface.
The colour syntax function detects valid instructions and
applies a colour to them. The program code is thus much
easier to read and typographic errors are detected immedi-
ately.
The "Bookmarks", "Goto Line", "Find and Replace" editor
functions make it easier to navigate through extensive
programs.
The code built can be displayed directly in the original code.
The function is also used by the integrated debugger.
Complete functions can be copied from a library using
drag & drop.
Saia PG5® Graftec (sequential function chart)
Saia PG5® Graftec (sequential function chart)
Graftec (sequential function chart) is particularly suited to
sequential processes. Sequential blocks are a fixed component
of the PCD firmware and are processed by it efficiently.
Steps and transitions can be programmed in IL and graphi-
cally in Fupla.
To also ensure a good overview with extensive sequential
processes, division into sub-pages is possible.
In online mode, the active transition is permanently displayed.
Option to process the code step-by-step in step mode.
