S5 for Windows® provides the tools for creating, modifying, testing and documenting programs for programmable logic controllers (PLC). Active and corrupted steps are specially indicated. The status display has the same layout as the editor window. The size of the step boxes is adjustable to the size (number of characters per line, number of lines) of the used comments. The corresponding Symbolic Library may also be displayed and edited at the same time. The size of the logic window may be adjusted. This logic may be displayed and edited inLadder logic (LAD), Control System Flowchart (CSF), or Statement List (STL). Simultaneously to the actual Step Sequence the logic of the selected Step or Transition is displayed in a separate window. The G5 for Windows® Graphical Step Sequence programming is compatible to the SIEMENS GRAPH5 and GRAPH5/II PLC programming package and therefore it also needs the standard SIEMENS Function and Step Blocks (FB70/71 - SB0, FB72 - SB2, FB73 - SB3).
