Description
The CODESYS Control Win SL turns an industrial PC into a universally applicable high-performance PLC – almost scalable via PC performance. The system is suitable for applications without tough real-time behaviour requirements and is also used in the building sector with the CODESYS KNX SL bookable.
The runtime system supports numerous I/O interfaces such as discrete input/output or fieldbus cards as well as integrated IEC 61131-3 protocol stacks. The fieldbuses are configured directly in the CODESYS Development System – without the use of additional tools.
Benefits
- Communication with the CODESYS Development System
- Loading, managing and executing the binary format application code compiled by CODESYS
- Debugging of the application within CODESYS
- Handling of I/O systems and fieldbuses
- Execution of optional components (see section “Product options”)
- Support of remanent data: hard disk, flash card, battery-buffered SRAM card
Interfaces
- CODESYS OPC UA Server, as a full version for data exchange.
Fieldbus support
With the delivery of the runtime package the following fieldbuses are supported:
- CODESYS CANopen Manager / Device
- CODESYS EtherCAT Master
- CODESYS EtherNet/IP Scanner / Adapter
- CODESYS J1939
- CODESYS Modbus TCP master / Slave
- CODESYS Modbus Serial Master / Slave
- CODESYS PROFIBUS Master
- CODESYS PROFINET Controller / Device
- CODESYS Sercos III Master
- These fieldbuses require an installed Npcap. This product therefore includes software developed by the Computer Systems Engineering Group at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory.
Product options
The product can be expanded by the following paid product options:
- CODESYS BACnet SL
- CODESYS KNX SL
- CODESYS Redundancy SL
- CODESYS SoftMotion SL
- CODESYS SoftMotion CNC+Robotics SL
- CODESYS TargetVisu
- CODESYS WebVisu

Requirements
Programming system | CODESYS Development System V3.5.17.0 or higher |
Supported platforms/devices | Runs on Windows 10 / 11 / Embedded (32 / 64 Bit) The versions are supported. Note: Use the Device Reader tool to determine the functions supported by the controller (free part of the CODESYS Development System). |
Additional requirements | -- |
Limitations | soft real-time properties: within the tolerance range, the time can be frequently exceeded and rarely severely exceeded. Not suitable for use in containers or virtual machines (VMs)! |
Licensing | Single device license: The license can be used on the controller on which the CODESYS runtime system is installed. The license activation is done on a software-based license container (soft container), which is permanently bound to the control system. Alternatively, the license can be stored on a CODESYS key (USB dongle). By redefining the CODESYS Key, the license can be used on another controller. Note: Without a license, the software runs in demo mode for two hours. Then a manual restart is required. |
Required accessories | Optional: CODESYS Key |
