Development environment

Development and modernization of systems

The platform enables the development of new systems as well as the upgrading of existing solutions, which includes saving of input-output devices.

Due to its modular architecture, the Virtual PLC can adapt to different scenarios, ranging from small autonomous objects to distributed control systems (DCS).

Hardware independence: running on x86−64 and ARM, and other architectures.

The use of Russian software compatible with various operating systems: Astra Linux, ALT, RED OS, foreign distributions Debian and Ubuntu.

Scalability of functionality by means of software modules.

Support for industrial standards IEC 61 131−3 and IEC 61 499.

Features:

A powerful engineering environment for configuring, programming, and debugging projects. Supports visual algorithm design (FBD), monitoring, task management, and execution contour in real-time.

Features:

Runtime environment

The software version of the next-generation programmable logic controller (SoftPLC). It determines execution of control algorithms in a Linux environment while also supporting real-time modes. The Virtual PLC's architecture prioritizes reliability in hostile environments, high performance, scalability, and security.

Execution of up to 20 tasks with different priorities and execution intervals.

Connecting to SCADA via OPC UA, Modbus TCP, MQTT.

Support for hot standby*.

Logging, diagnostics, including SNMP, Syslog.

The ability to work within a virtual environment and on physical hardware.

Support for the concept of fault tolerance** and rapid recovery scenarios.

Operation in rigid real-time mode (from 1 ms).

Facilitates the scheduling and execution of both scheduled and on-demand tasks.

Features:

* in development: plan – Q4 2025
** 1oo2 – Q4 2025, 1oo3 – 2026

* in development: plan – Q4 2025

Project structure: Device → Resource → Application → Control loop.

Support for event-driven logic (IEC 61 499) and periodic tasks (IEC 61 131).

Graphical algorithm editor and function block library (FB).

Debugging and monitoring: FORCE mode, event triggers, logging.

Configuration of communication protocols: OPC UA, Modbus TCP, MQTT.

Support for text editor (ST)*.

Built-in tools—backups, project templates, local history, autosave—are designed to reduce the risk of errors and speed up the system's deployment.
