A TwinCAT 3 PLC library for the Database Server utilises the object-oriented extensions of the IEC 61131-3. As a result, the program code is more structured and much simpler to extend. The performance of command processing is also considerably higher. Furthermore, a C++ interface is implemented for the Database Server. This allows the user to communicate with the database server not just from the PLC, but also directly from a C++ application."; function tShowHide(id, show) { var s = document.getElementById("desc"); if ((s.innerHTML.length<=212 || show==1) && show!=2) { s.innerHTML = fDesc[id]; if (document.getElementById('m1')) document.getElementById('m1').style.display='none'; if (document.getElementById('m2')) document.getElementById('m2').style.display='none'; if (document.getElementById('more_txt')) document.getElementById('more_txt').style.display='inline'; } else { s.innerHTML = ''; } }
