The application presentation (program, data, setup parameters, operator screens) complies with the IEC 61131-3 norm and its ergonomics is similar to standard programming tools'.
thinPLC is an essential tool for your maintenance chain. It offers a set of connectors to enable any third party's tools (supervisors, control/command HMI...) to benefit from the dynamic display of PLC programs.
Access to thinPLC requires authentication, allowing for limited access to the applications depending upon connected the user profile.
Publishing a web PLC application takes only a few clicks. Then thinPLC ensures access to it from a web browser in accordance with your infrastructure security rules.
thinPLC isolates the industrial network to protect it against possible hacking.
thinPLC architecture
Major advantages
Simple and intuitive: ergonomics has been thought for easy adoption by automation engineers.
Reliable: programs cannot be modified, access right management.
Open: platform is open for integration of new IOP components (monitoring, thinHMI, documentation) or tailored components.
Easy setup: configuration is made by simply importing PLC programs; administration is minimal.
Functionalities
