CODESYS is a software platform for industrial automation and the Internet of Things (IoT). It enables the development of distributed automation solutions and the implementation of communication protocols across multiple platforms. The platform offers a comprehensive suite of tools for creating distributed applications, including a graphical user interface, programming language, and debugging tools. The platform also provides a range of integrated components, such as libraries for communication protocols, graphical user interface elements, and drivers for various hardware components. The applications created on CODESYS can be deployed on various platforms, such as PLCs, PCs, and embedded systems, making it possible to create a wide range of automation solutions. The platform also offers support for multiple communication protocols, such as Ethernet/IP, OPC UA, and MQTT. CODESYS provides a scalable, robust and secure development environment, making it ideal for industrial automation and the Internet of Things.
RobotStudio is used to simulate and program ABB robots, not PLCs.
