Program—KincoBuilder Fast Start

KincoBuilder Interface

Project Organization Structure

Tasks Execution in CPU

Steps to create new project

KincoBuilder Interface

Program Initial Data

(Optional)

CPU process the initial data upon power on

then starts scan cycle.

Main Program CPU executes main program once per scan cycle.

Only 1 main program in a project.

Interrupt

routines

(Optional)

For process specific interrupt events. CPU executes

interrupt routines upon occurrence of interrupt event.

At most 16 interrupt routines are allowable in a

project.

Subroutines

(Optional)

Invoked by main program or interrupt routines. At

most 16 interrupt routines are allowable in a project.

Configuration Hardware Configure CPU and expansion modules in the

projects, address, function parameters, etc.

Global variables

(Optional)

For declaring global variables required in the project.

Project Organization Structure

CPU executes a series of tasks continuously and cyclically. We take the cyclical

execution of tasks as scan.

Executing CPU Diagnostics: CPU executes self-diagnostics to check proper

operation of CPU, memory areas and status of expansion modules.

Read inputs: Read all the physical input channels and writes these values to

input image areas

Executing main program: CPU execute all the instructions in the main program

continuously and updates memory areas.

Writing outputs: CPU write the

values stored in output areas to the

physical output channels.

Processing Communication requests


If interrupt routines are attached in the program, CPU will interrupt scan

cycle temporarily when interrupt events occur and immediately execute

corresponding interrupt routines. Once interrupt routines is complete, it

will back to breakpoint.


Execution of Interrupt Routines

The following simple example just illustrates common steps for creating and

debugging a new project.

Assume that we shall create the following project:

project name: “Example”;

Hardware: a Kinco-K506-24AT CPU module;

Control logic” Toggle Q0.0---Q0.7 in turn and cyclically.

And for better structure, we use two POUs: a subroutine named “Demo” to

realize logic; the Main Program named “Main” in which “Demo” is involved.


Steps to create new project:

Step 1. Launch KincoBuilder;

Step 2. If necessary, user could modify default setting in KincoBuilder

[Configuring General Software Options].

Step 3. Create a new project by one of the following ways:

Select [Title]>[New project] menu command;

Click the icon in the toolbar;

After the above operation, the “New Project” dialog box will pop up. Users

need to enter project name and assign its directory, and then click [Sae], the

new project shall be created. In this example, let’s select “D:\temp” as the

project directory, and project name is “Example”.


Step 4. Modify hardware configuration in [Configuring Hardware]. In this

example, we configure Kinco-K506-24AT as CPU model.

Step 5. If necessary, users could configure [Initial Variable Table] and

[Global Variable Table]

Step 6. Entering instructions in main program and subroutine editor window

to realize logical control. Users could select [Project]>[IL] or [Project]>[LD]

menu command to change current POU’s language. In this program we take

LD as program language.

Main Program:

When creating a new project, KincoBuiler will automatically create an empty

main program named “MAIN” at the same time.


Add new Subroutine by one of the following ways:

Click the icon on the toolbar;

Right-click [PROGRAM] node in workplace window, and select [New

Subroutine] command on pop-up menu. Then new subroutine will be created

with the default name “SBR_0”.

Users could rename and subroutines by the following way: Close the

subroutine window; right-click on the subroutine node in workplace window,

then select [Rename] command to modify the name to “Demo”, or select

[Properties] command to make modification in the “Property” dialog box. Also

users could rename main program in the same way.


Subroutine: Demo Main program: Example


Step 7. Compile project. When compiling a project, KincoBuilder will save it

automatically at first to ensure it is the latest. Execute compilation by the

following ways:

Select [PLC]>Compile All] menu command;

Click the icon on the toolbar;

Use shortcut key F7.

The “Compile” tab in the output window keeps a list of the latest compiling

messages. Users could double-click on an error message in the “Compile”

Window to find the source code.

Step 8. Download program. Users need to make sure communication

parameters for [connecting PLC with PC] are correct. Download project by the

following ways:


Step 8. Download program. Users need to make sure communication

parameters for [connecting PLC with PC] are correct. Download project by the

following ways:

Variable must have a name and an address in the CPU.

Kinco K5 series PLCs provide two methods to access the memory units:

1.Direct addressing

2. Indirect addressing, i.e. pointer

Variables

Direct addressing

Directly represented variable

Direct address, a special symbolic composed by “%”+memory area identifier + data size + unsigned number

Symbolic variable

Declare symbolic variables within Global Variable Table or Variable Table of the respective POU.

Indirect addressing
