Visual programming method and system for motor controller

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of electric and electronic, and specifically relates to a visual programming method and system for a motor controller. The visual programming method for a motor controller includes the steps: visually compiling a program off-line, writing the off-line compiled program into a memory region of a controller, and operating the program written into the memory region of the controller, wherein visually compiling the program off-line includes the steps: opening the visual programming software, loading a configuration file into the memory, performing program editing, saving the program into a dynamic array, and saving the dynamic array as the first customize file. The visual programming method and system for a motor controller can realize on-line programming, debugging and single command execution, thus being convenient for program designing and debugging for the staff, and can also realize the off-line operation function, so that the staff can write the logical program flow of the application scene into the controller and disconnects communication with a host computer after saving and through power up execution or state change of I / O to trigger and stop the program so as to be suitable for some simple or fixed logical application scenes conveniently.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of electrical and electronic technology, in particular to a visual programming method and system for a motor controller. Background technique [0002] At present, with the development of software technology, in addition to traditional text editing, there are visual programming methods for programming. Visual programming can visually represent each step of the program action by providing symbols and views, and the program action directly matches the required steps. This programming method is in line with human thinking. Therefore, the use of visual programming in the field of motor control can make Programming becomes intuitive and clear. [0003] The motor control methods mainly include pulse control and bus control. Both of these methods require the host computer to send pulses or commands. When using the host computer to perform related operations, the wiring of the motor will be complicated and the cost will incre...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] The motor control methods mainly include pulse control and bus control. Both of these methods require the host computer to send pulses or commands. When using the host computer to perform related operations, the wiring of the motor will be complicated and the cost will increase. To avoid these disadvantages , the relevant control logic can be written into the controller through programming, so that the controller can execute automatically. At present, many programming methods use a special editor for syntax input, and then compile it into a binary file and burn it to the controller. This programming method requires The staff are familiar with program syntax, program structure, code sequence, etc., but many front-line staff are non-professional programmers or people who do not know how to program, and know little about text program programming with strict requirements. Therefore, they are required to be familiar with the control It will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of operation and debugging of the staff, increase their workload and reduce their work efficiency

[0004] In order to solve the difficulties brought by text program programming, the existing literature has a motor controller design with human-computer interaction interface. Xu Zhengping, Xu Yongsen, Kuang Haipeng. Liquid Crystal and Display. 2012.27(4):515-52, proposed to use an array keyboard And the LCD is used as an interactive device. Through the buttons, the user can input codes or parameters on the spot, and the information during the operation will be displayed on the LCD in real time. However, the premise of using this method is that the user needs to be familiar with the code instructions, and the programming method is inconvenient and not intuitive.
