The control coprocessor expands the capability of a programmable-
controller system by running C, BASIC, and assembler programs that
perform tasks such as:
manipulating and analyzing input, output, and other information
gathered from the programmable controller
communicating with devices external to the programmable controller
system via the Ethernet
or asynchronous serial communication port(s)
These user programs run asynchronously to, and independently of, the
programmable-controller control logic, but they do have access to its
memory. You can use the control-logic programs in your programmable
controller to start and stop your C, BASIC, or assembler programs.
