Introduction to Siemens PLC programming software

Siemens PLC programming software, a professional programming software launched by Siemens of Germany, uses PLC programming. PLC programming is an electronic system developed based on digital operations specifically for industrial environment applications. PLC programming uses programmable memory to store instructions for performing operations such as logical operations, sequence control, timing, counting and arithmetic operations, and uses digital and analog input and output to achieve the purpose of controlling various types of machinery or production processes. The Siemens PLC programming software is also developed based on this.

Introduction to Siemens PLC programming software functions
