English term or phrase: ladder logic
Definition from Manufacturing automation:
symbolic representation illustrates schematically the functions of a control circuit. The power lines form the sides of a ladder-like structure, with the program elements arranged to form the rungs.

Example sentence(s):
  • In an effort to make PLCs easy to program, their programming language was designed to resemble ladder logic diagrams. Thus, an industrial electrician or electrical engineer accustomed to reading ladder logic schematics would feel comfortable programming a PLC to perform the same control functions. All about circuits
  • Traditionally, ladder logic has dealt only with discrete values and counter/timers, but the ladder diagram today also supports mathematical operations using function blocks. Control Engineering
  • One common development platform is called ladder logic. Ladder logic is a programming language based on executing commands on a line-by-line permission system. Each ladder logic program comprises one or more ladder logic statements. electronic manufacturers

Ladder


Definition from own experience or research:
El Ladder, també denominat llenguatge de contacte o d'escala, es un llenguatge de programació gráfic dels autómats programables basat en els esquemes eléctrics de control clásics.

Example sentence(s):
  • Els primers PLC van ser dissenyats per ser usats per electricistes que podien aprendre a programar els PLC en el treball. Aquests PLC eren programats amb "lògica d'escala" ( "ladder logic"). Els PLC moderns poden ser programats de moltes formes, des de la lògica d'escala fins llenguatges de programació tradicionals com el BASIC o C. Un altre mètode és fer servir la Lògica d'Estats (State Logic), un llenguatge de programació d'alt nivell dissenyat per a programes PLC basant-se en els diagrames de transició d'estats. - Programable_Industrial
