Use the following sections as a quick start to
using Cicode in your CitectSCADA projects:
Cicode can be stored in
procedures called functions for multiple reuse and centralized
maintenance. For details, see Using Cicode Files.
Cicode can be typed directly into
command fields in online CitectSCADA forms. For details, see
Using Cicode
Commands.
Cicode expressions are used to
display and log data for monitoring and analysis, and to trigger
various elements in your system, such as alarms, events, reports,
and data logging. For information on using expressions, see
Using Cicode
Expressions.
A Cicode function is a small
program, a collection of statements, variables, operators,
conditional executors, and other functions. A Cicode function can
perform complex tasks and give you access to CitectSCADA graphics pages, alarms,
trend data, and so on. For information on using functions, see the
section titled Using Cicode
Functions. Cicode has many pre-defined functions that perform a
variety of tasks. For details on commonly used functions, see the
section titled Working with Commonly
Used Functions. Where system functionality cannot be achieved
with built-in functions, you can write your own functions. See
Writing Functions.
The Cicode Editor is the code
editing tool provided with CitectSCADA for the writing, editing
and debugging of your Cicode code. For details, see The Cicode Editor.
