Trusted Toolset Application Validator Software Package 1. Validator #1 - Cross Reference Checker


1. Validator #1 - Cross Reference Checker

This Validator processes the cross reference file that is output as a result of using the IEC 61131 TOOLSET 'Cross Reference' tool. The Validator processes this file then presents the user with a graphical display of variable usage. This enables the user to easily identify variables that are shared between programs within an application.

Programs that share one or more variables are dependent on each other, i.e. changes to one program can affect the behaviour of its dependent. These dependencies must be checked during the development of such an application if the target integrity for the application is to be SIL 3 (AK6). The cross reference checker aids this task by identifying program dependencies and thus enables the applications developer to perform adequate re-test of affect programs.

The Validator can be run as a stand-alone application, or by selecting Cross Ref. Validator from the IEC 61131 TOOLSET Tools menu. Before running the Validator, the cross reference file must be generated. It is recommended that the file is given the same name as the project with an '.xrf' extension, and is located in the application directory as the Validator looks for this file by default when it is run from the IEC 61131 TOOLSET Tools menu. For example, if the project name is 'projxyz' then enter the filename 'c:\isawin\apl\projxyz\prjxyz.xrf' when generating the cross reference file. Note that the complete path name must be entered.

1.1. Using Validator #1

The Cross Reference Checker (Validator #1) can be run as a stand-alone application or by selecting Cross Ref. Validator from the IEC 61131 TOOLSET Tools menu.

1.2. Generating a Cross Reference File

To generate the cross reference file for an application follow these steps:

1. Start the IEC 61131 TOOLSET Projects manager.

2. Select and double-click on the project containing the required application.

3. Select the Cross References item from the Tools menu.

4. Ensure that the Object type selection is set to (all) then select the Export (text file) option from the 'File' menu.

5. Enter a filename for the cross reference file.

1. Validator #1 - Cross Reference Checker Trusted Toolset Application Validator Software Package



Trusted Toolset Application Validator Software Package 2. Validator #2 - TIC Code Cross Reference Checker


2. Validator #2 - TIC Code Cross Reference Checker

This Validator performs the same task as Validator #1 to produce a graphical display of variable usage and program dependencies that the applications developer can use to aid program verification and re-test. The Validator differs from Validator #1 in that it derives the dependency information from the downloadable TIC code and application symbols database files generated by the IEC 61131 TOOLSET when an application is successfully compiled. By deriving the information from a different source, the applications developer is able to perform an additional consistency check on the IEC 61131 TOOLSET and Validators themselves by comparing the results of each.


The TIC Code Cross Reference Checker (Validator #2) can be run as a stand-alone application or by selecting TIC Dependency Checker from the IEC 61131 TOOLSET Tools menu.

2. Validator #2 - TIC Code Cross Reference Checker Trusted Toolset Application Validator Software Package



Trusted Toolset Application Validator Software Package 3. Validator #3 - TIC Code Processor


3. Validator #3 - TIC Code Processor

This Validator is used to compare the compiled TIC code produced by the IEC 61131 TOOLSET compiler for two different application databases. Its intended use is to identify differences between versions of the same application.

The output from the Validator enables the applications programmer to identify programs that have changed as a result of amending an application, and to also identify any unexpected changes to programs that may have been introduced by the IEC 61131 TOOLSET itself.

To use this Validator it is recommended that the IEC 61131 TOOLSET Projects manager is used to copy the project to be amended to a new project before any changes are applied to it. The required changes can be then be applied to the existing project. Both the modified and copied projects can then be compiled to produce the database files required by the Validator.

Run the validator by either selecting the TIC Difference Checker option from the IEC 61131 TOOLSET Tools menu, or as a stand-alone application. Select the copied and modified application directories for comparison, if all the required database files are available then programs from each application are compared.


The TIC Code Processor (Validator #3) can be run as a stand-alone application or by selecting TIC Difference Checker from the IEC 61131 TOOLSET Tools menu.

3. Validator #3 - TIC Code Processor Trusted Toolset Application Validator Software Package



Trusted Toolset Application Validator Software Package 4. Validator #4 - TIC Version Checker


4. Validator #4 - TIC Version Checker

This Validator is used to compare the compiled TIC code produced by the IEC 61131 TOOLSET compiler with the application loaded into the Trusted Main Processor. The intended use of this validator is to confirm that the application being executed in a Trusted system matches the toolset copy of the TIC code.

The output from the Validator enables the applications programmer to identify programs that have changed either as a result of amending an application, or due to any unexpected changes to programs that may have been introduced by the Toolset itself.


To use this Validator it is recommended that the IEC 61131 TOOLSET, Projects manager is used to copy the project to be executed on the Trusted Main Processor as a comparison copy. Any subsequent amendments to the project can result in a change to the compiled TIC code.

Run the validator by either selecting the TIC Version Checker option from IEC 61131 TOOLSET Tools menu, or as a stand-alone application. Select the application directory for comparison, interrogate the Trusted Main processor for the run time application and then compare the applications.

Trusted Toolset Application Validator Software Package 5. Program Dependency Tree


5. Program Dependency Tree

The program dependency tree produced by Validators #1 and #2 shows program and variable dependencies by displaying them in a tree hierarchy. The top level nodes in the tree give the programs from the application. These expand to list the variables used by a program, and these in turn expand to list the programs that use a variable. The icons are used for the tree nodes are assigned unique colours and shapes, and have the following meanings as detailed below.

Green Round Icon

This node represents a program that has no shared variables, and expands to display only variables that are not shared.

Red Round Icon

This node represents a program that has one or more shared variables, and expands to display both shared and non-shared variable node types.

Green Square Icon

The node represents a variable that is not shared and expands to display only one program name.

Red Square Icon

The node represents a variable that is shared, and expands to display the names of the programs that share it.

6. Errors and Warnings

The following Errors and Warnings by the Application Validators as they are detected.

'Abort, name too long!'

This message is displayed if a variable or program name read from the application symbols file, or the cross reference, is too long. The maximum identifier length supported by IEC 61131 TOOLSET version 3.23 is 16.

'Aborted, unknown block type header'

This message is displayed by Validator #1 if it encounters an unknown header type while reading through the cross reference file. Check that the correct file has been selected, or try regenerating it.

'Aborting, input file is not a valid cross reference file'

This message is displayed by Validator #1 if it detects a syntax or format error while reading through the cross reference file. Check that the correct file has been selected, or try regenerating it.

'Aborting, input file is not a valid symbols file'

This message is displayed if a Validator encounters a syntax or format error while it is reading the application symbols file. Try recompiling the application to re-generate the symbols file.

'Applications directory : <name> does not exist'

This message is displayed when a Validator cannot locate the specified Application Directory.

'Cannot find application symbols file Appli.tst for application <name>'

This message is displayed if a Validator cannot locate the application symbols file for an application. Check that the application has been compiled successfully.

'Cannot find TIC code file Appli.x6m for application <name>'

This message is displayed if a Validator cannot locate the download data base file for the application. Check that the application has been compiled successfully, and that the compiler options have been set to generate code for a Motorola target (ISA68M).

6. Errors and Warnings Trusted Toolset Application Validator Software Package


'Cannot produce report, printer fault'

This message is displayed if a printer fault occurs while a Validator is attempting to output a report to the printer.

'Download database not in Motorola format'
