Installation Overview
Set up PLC Studio AI with your CODESYS environment
Installation Overview
Setting up PLC Studio AI involves installing a bridge script that enables communication between your local CODESYS environment and the PLC Studio AI cloud service.
Setup Process
The installation consists of three main steps:
- Verify System Requirements - Ensure your system meets the minimum requirements
- Install the CODESYS Bridge - Add the bridge script to your CODESYS installation
- Connect Your Account - Link your PLC Studio AI account to your local environment
What Gets Installed
PLC Studio AI uses a lightweight Python script that runs within CODESYS's scripting environment. This script:
- Reads your project structure (POUs, GVLs, DUTs)
- Sends code to the PLC Studio AI service for AI processing
- Applies AI-generated changes back to your project
- Reports compilation results in real-time
The bridge script does not modify your CODESYS installation and can be easily removed if needed.
