  • Ladder logic graphical programming and textual programming synchronization
    Patent number: 10345784
    Abstract: For ladder logic graphical programming and textual programming synchronization, a processor dynamically synchronizes a graphical ladder logic programming interface to an executable code base of ladder logic instructions. The processor further concurrently dynamically synchronizes a textual ladder logic programming interface to the executable code base.

  • Programmable logic controller for safety systems with reduced cross-wiring
    Patent number: 6549034
    Abstract: A safety system programmable logic controller provides for cross connection of inputs and outputs of separate independent control modules through the use of virtual wire connections passing as messages on a single logical backplane. The backplane executes a high level protocol that provides wire-like indications of communication failures mimicking those of separate physical wires.
