Draft PLC code from the functional description

Turns your functional description into draft PLC code with test cases, written to your own standards. Your automation engineer reviews, tests and releases it.

Problem

A machine or cell starts with a functional description: modes, sequences, interlocks and alarms. Turning it into PLC code and test cases is careful, repetitive work, and experienced PLC programmers are hard to find.

What it does

YP reads the functional description, the I/O list and your code standards, and builds on your existing function blocks. It drafts the standard control logic and a test case for each sequence, interlock and alarm, linked to its requirement. Gaps in the description become questions. Your engineer reviews, tests in simulation and decides what goes to the machine.

How it works

See exactly how the work gets done.

The PLC code is drafted from your functional description. The run is triggered by a functional description that has been approved.

The code is written to your standards. Naming, structure and function blocks come from your own libraries and code standards.

YP also writes the test cases for the code. Each sequence, interlock and alarm gets a test case that is linked to the requirement it checks.

Gaps in the description become questions for your engineer. YP lists the gaps and conflicts it finds as questions and does not guess.

Your engineer decides what goes to the machine. The engineer reviews the draft, tests it in simulation and at the acceptance test, and then releases it.

The outcome

Your engineers review and test instead of typing every sequence. Projects reach the acceptance test with the code and tests already written.

01
PLC code drafted

To your naming, structure and function blocks

02
Test cases included

One for each sequence, interlock and alarm

03
Engineer releases

After review and testing in simulation

For your numbers

YP drafts the PLC code and tests from your functional description, so your automation engineers deliver more projects with the same team.

How it runs

Designed for enterprise.

Private

Runs on your infrastructure. Drawings, prices, client and claims data never train a model.

Explainable

Not a black box. An AI auditor checks that every task was done as intended and proposes improvements.

Traceable

Every value links to the document, rule or record it came from. Every step is logged. A named person approves anything that leaves the building.

Your systems

Works in your ERP, CargoWise, policy system, GIS and file shares. Nothing is replaced.
