Soft-PLC runtime

HolonStationPLC

In development

A soft-PLC for station and plant logic, running on standard industrial PCs and talking IEC 61850 and IEC 104 natively.

Planned features

What this tool is being built to do. Features may change before the first release.

  • IEC 61131-3 languages

    Program in Structured Text and Function Block Diagram, the languages automation engineers already know.

  • Standard hardware

    Run on industrial PCs and servers instead of dedicated controllers.

  • Protocol I/O

    Map variables directly to IEC 61850 and IEC 104 data, without separate gateways.

  • Online debugging

    Watch and force variables while the logic runs.

  • Versioning

    Keep track of every change to the application.

  • Redundancy

    Redundant runtime for critical logic is on the roadmap.

Where it helps

  • Station automation logic

    Interlocks, sequences and local automation at bay or station level.

  • Gateways with logic

    Add calculations and conditions between protocols.

  • Labs and test benches

    Build automation scenarios around simulated stations.
