be enhanced by displaying the simulated plant by means of corresponding

The use of the simulation in conjunction with the versatile debug functions
(troubleshooting functions) in CoDeSys allows a simple and efficient complete
program test.

Conclusion This overview shows that CoDeSys as a complete development environment
for your ecomat controller exceeds the functions of a common programming
surface. Let's take a small project to show that we are not promising too much.
