Equipment performance, downtime and losses – recorded directly on your CODESYS controller. The DDAS Machine Insight Suite SL is a library bundle for machine builders and system integrators, covering machine states, shift and batch times, with a ready-to-run application template. One license per device covers the entire bundle.
Performance, time and shift data from the machine program itself – licensed per device.
The DDAS Machine Insight Suite SL is a set of CODESYS libraries for machine builders and system integrators. It records machine states, downtime and losses, calculates KPIs such as OEE, and provides the time and shift data they are based on – directly in the IEC 61131-3 application on the controller or on an edge device.
Included Libraries
Equipment Performance Library
Tracks machine states and run times
Categorizes losses and analyzes downtime by cause (top states)
Calculates KPIs in real time: OEE, utilization, losses
Stores history data in standardized data structures for dashboards and higher-level systems
Returns one total result over several shifts or batches on request
Date & Time Library
Local time, UTC, weekday and calendar week
Timestamps with millisecond resolution
Calendar and time-zone handling
Scheduler Library
Build time calculation and predicted batch end
Shift and break schedules
For batch- and shift-oriented production, maintenance cycles and timed operations
DDAS License Manager Library
Checks the license of the suite on the device. Included in compiled form and added automatically; no configuration required.
Application Template
A ready-to-run CODESYS project that uses all function blocks:
Sample machine program with visualization pages for machine performance, shifts and breaks
License status of all libraries and combined error handling of all function blocks
Delivered as CODESYS project, project archive, PLCopen XML and native CODESYS export – use it as the basis for your own application
Typical Applications
Machine builders with small series: one license per machine, delivered with the machine to the end customer
System integrators: add performance monitoring to existing CODESYS projects
Edge devices: one license on an edge device covers all connected machines, including machines from other manufacturers
Licensing
One license per device for all libraries of the suite, through the CODESYS licensing system (SoftContainer on the device or CODESYS Key)
Perpetual; may be passed on together with the device
2-hour demo mode without a license – test the suite on your target device before you buy
3 months helpdesk support by DDAS
Security updates for five years from the release of this version (until October 2031), free of charge in the latest compatible version
Requirements
CODESYS Development System and CODESYS Control V3.5.18.0 or higher. The runtime must support CODESYS licensing (component CmpCodemeter). Verified under CODESYS Control Win V3 x64. Details are listed under Requirements.
Delaware Digital Application Solutions LLC develops CODESYS libraries for machine builders and system integrators – engineered by automation professionals.
Requirements
Development system
CODESYS Development System V3.5.18.0 or higher.
Runtime
CODESYS Control V3.5.18.0 or higher.
Supported platforms and devices
CODESYS-compatible controllers, industrial PCs and edge devices that support CODESYS licensing. Designed for CODESYS Control Win V3 x64 and compatible industrial PLCs.
Licensing requirements
The runtime must contain the CODESYS licensing component CmpCodemeter. Not every manufacturer-specific runtime includes it — check your device before purchase (for example with the CODESYS "DeviceReader" project from the CODESYS Store, or ask the device manufacturer). The license is stored in the device's CODESYS SoftContainer or on a CODESYS Key.
Additional requirements
The following CODESYS libraries, part of a standard CODESYS installation: Standard, Util, SysTarget, SysTime, CAA DTUtil Extern and 3SLicense (CODESYS licensing). The DDAS License Manager library is included in the package and added automatically.
Restrictions
Accuracy depends on the system clock and the RTC configuration. Hardware-dependent behavior may vary across CODESYS platforms. Verify correct functionality on your target device before production use. Not designed for safety functions.
Licensing
Single device license: one license per device for all libraries of the suite, activated with the ticket ID in the CODESYS License Manager. Demo mode: runs for 2 hours without a license from each start of the application.
