Powerful high-level language for precise automation solutions
Structured Text (ST) is a modern high-level language according to IEC 61131-3, which is based on Pascal and is ideal for structured programming. As the most widely used language in the standard, ST combines clarity with high flexibility – perfect for complex control tasks and the replacement of outdated IL (Instruction List) programs.
High-level language constructs for maximum efficiency
With ST, you use familiar high-level language elements:
Conditional programming: IF, CASE, WHILE, FOR
Modular structuring: Functions, function blocks, data structures
Scalability: From simple logic operations to complex algorithms
Ideal for experienced developers
Programmers with knowledge of C, Pascal or similar languages will find their way around immediately.
ST enables:
Fast implementation of complex rules and calculations; Reusable code thanks to clear modularization
Easy maintenance thanks to readable syntax and structured documentation
