A powerful editor for LAD/FBD programming is available for ladder diagrams (LAD) or function block diagrams (FBD).

LAD/FBD also include commands for SIMOTION control using standard logic functions. Motion Control tasks are preferably programmed with PLCopen blocks. Blocks which have been programmed in other SIMOTION languages can be called without problems. User-friendly functions such as "on the fly" variable declarations or automatic syntax checks are available when programming in LAD or FBD. It is possible to switch over between LAD and FBD in the editor at any time. A program can therefore be viewed and processed in either LAD or FBD.
