Some of the general features of Cscape include:

Project Navigator

The project navigator makes it easier than ever to develop custom applications using Cscape™. The familiar Windows like explorer tree is both intuitive and user friendly.

The icons in the tree allows users to skip between the discreet application nodes while automatically opening whatever tool is appropriate for that object or control so developers can rapidly jump from one location to another.

There are a variety of device based templates which can be used as an application springboard and also sample code projects and tutorials.

 

 

Organizational Blocks

Ladder logic development takes a giant leap forward with the use of organizational blocks.

Users of our previous tools will immediately note how the use of organizational blocks is a significant improvement. Now, it is far easier to visualize the entire logic chain. This is accomplished by splitting long lines of logic code into discreet chunks.

Organizational blocks make supporting and debugging far simpler as the learning curve is considerably less.

 

 

Scheduler Blocks

The use of scheduling blocks allows developers to create any number of time based events which can be used to do anything from generating end of week reports for senior management to complex minute by minute processes making this an extremely useful feature both in terms of functionality and for monitoring ongoing productivity.

The simple, easy to understand block based layout makes it easy for users to understand other developer's code, thereby simplifying maintenance and debugging.

 

Simplified Controller Configuration

It's easier to configure your particular OCS using Cscape's™ simplified Model Selection, with OCS models grouped by family instead of a single list. Simply select the Horner product you intend on using and Cscape™ will automatically pre-configure the base application for you.

  • Provides significantly faster online debugging

  • Dynamic Shape Attributes (circle, rectangle, line)
  • Works with the Optional 4,000+ Graphical Library, Cscape™ with Symbols

FAQs

Q. Why Can't I Download Cscape with Symbols for Free?
A. Because the symbol library is a licensed product, Horner APG is NOT authorized to place it on the Web to download free. However, we will continue to make Cscape without Symbols available to download at no charge.

Q. Once I Download and Install Cscape with Symbols, How Do I Access the Symbols?
A. The library of 4,000+ symbols is completely integrated with Cscape 8.0 and later. Whenever you want to edit a screen with a new symbol, you'll be selecting and placing either a bitmap object or animated bitmap object. An option will appear in the dialog box to "Select Symbol." From there it's a simple process of browsing the 64 available categories, and scrolling down to find the symbol you want to use. Once inserted, the symbol can be moved and/or scaled like any other bitmap object.

Q. What Symbols are Available?
A. The symbol library has more than 4,000 symbols from such categories as:
  • 3-D Pushbuttons
  • Chemical
  • Food
  • General Mfg.
