4.1.1.2 Runtime software
The Industrial PC is the core of the control system. To perform the task of the central cont-
rol unit, the Industrial PC requires the runtime software.
The runtime software comprises the operating system. Moreover, further software compo-
nents are required which, for example, execute the control program.
The Industrial PCs are supplied completely with the runtime software. The different com-
ponents of the runtime software are described in the following.
 L-force Logic
The L-force Logic runtime software is a soft PLC. It serves to execute PLC programs which
have been created with the »PLC Designer« . These programs describe logic operations.
L-force Motion
( 20)
serves to control drive-related processes.
The programs are processed cyclically by a multitasking operating system. L-force Logic
merely describes the function; the performance of the control system results from the in-
teraction of the runtime software with the selected target system and thus directly de-
pends on the selected processor and other factors.
L-force Logic is available for the following target platforms:
Industrial PCs:
– Embedded Line EL 1800-9800
– Command Station CS 5800-9800
– Control Cabinet CPC 2800
HMIs:
– EL100 PLC
