Tutorials

Getting-Started: Bottling Line ApplicationThis tutorial presents the creation of a bottling line application using standard libraries included in the software. It explains how to model and simulate the plant (real equipment) and its control system.  
Getting-Started: Material Handling ApplicationThis tutorial presents the creation of a material handling application using standard libraries included in the software. It explains how to model and simulate the plant (real equipment) and its control system.  
Getting-Started: TrainCe tutoriel présente une modélisation du système de contôle des portes d’une voiture d’un train. Cette application met en oeuvre : le contrôle/commande (ordre d’ouverture et de fermeture des portes), une simulation de la partie opérative (portes, capteurs, …) avec possibilité de mettre en défaut les équipements physiques.  

 

 

User's guides : How to... with ControlBuild ?

How to use the API Com?Controlbuild has a communication interface via a COM layer, which allows the software to be driven from an external tool. The aim of this document is to describe the way to implement this communication within the interface and to describe all the different functions you can find. Examples in VisualBasic and in C/C++ are also presented.  
C Code Generation Coding RulesThis document describes coding rules used in the generation of C code from ControlBuild.  
How to perform functional tests with ControlBuildThis guide explains how to develop and run automatic functional and coverage tests with ControlBuild.  
How to use semaphore under Cygwin B20 in NT TargetsThis document explains the way to have semaphore running in cygwin B20 executables on NT targets.  
How to manage ControlBuild projects in collaborative environment?This document presents several management methods to realize a ControlBuild Project. Indeed, under some circumstances (teams on several sites closed or not, big project or not), the way to manage a project is not necessary the same.  
How to use static analysis and code metrics with ControlBuild?  
How to use User Functional Box (UFB) with ControlBuild?When ControlBuild is installed, only a limited number of IEC 1131-3 function box is available. In order to use ControlBuild in specific contexts, you need to work with specific functional boxes. The aim of this document is to present how to add, describe and use User Functional Boxes (UFB) in order to have them available in ControlBuild editors.  
How to use array variables with ControlBuild?This document explains the way to use array variables in ControlBuild.
