Structuring the automation system: Standard procedure
This section describes the standard procedure to create an application with the »PLC Designer«
based on the ApplicationTemplate.
• Use the following recommendations as a guide in order to be able to then create a PLC project
in the »PLC Designer« in a structured manner using the ApplicationTemplate and to program it
effectively.
• Due to the structured layout of the ApplicationTemplate (the consistency in these structures
and the compliance with these structures), applications can be created more quickly and hence
integrated in an existing PLC program more quickly.
