【 摘 要 】

This paper presents a new Matlab toolbox for synthesis of Structured Text (ST) code for Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) and Programmable Automation Controller (PAC). This tool can directly generate IEC 61131-3 Structured Text Language from Matlab script for selected Integrated Development Environments (IDEs). The generated code can be verified and compared with the results obtained with Matlab simulation. After this, generated code can be used in IDEs, compiled and uploaded to a PLC or PAC controller for final verification. This approach leaves all available Matlab toolboxes for programmers use, thus allowing fast and easy synthesis developed algorithms.
