Description

In Ladder Diagram, the controller is a top organizational unit that typically consists of task and controller tags. There can be a single task or multiple tasks. Tasks inside a controller are executed in parallel. There are two types of controller blocks available in Simulink® PLC Coder™:

  • PLC Controller Suite

  • PLC Controller

PLC controller suite is a block hierarchy that models a simple complete Ladder Logic Controller structure whereas a PLC controller block consists of ladder logic semantics. The controller tags store the information of global variables such as DataType, Mapping type, Port, Address etc. The global variables defined for a ladder diagram form the input and output ports of the controller.
