I came across this tool on the net when trying to look for a hardware independent programing environment for PLC coding. Has anyone used it before ?

What is Simulink PLC Coder?
Bill Chou, MathWorks

Simulink PLC Coder™ generates hardware-independent IEC 61131-3 Structured Text and Ladder Diagrams from Simulink® models, Stateflow® charts, and MATLAB® functions. Simulink PLC Coder generates Structured Text in a variety of file formats widely used by third-party integrated development environments (IDEs), including:

3S-Smart Software Solutions CODESYS
B&R Automation Studio™
Beckhoff® TwinCAT®
KW-Software MULTIPROG®
Omron Sysmac Studio
Phoenix Contact® PC WORX™
Rexroth IndraWorks
Rockwell Automation® RSLogix™ 5000 and Studio 5000
Siemens SIMATIC STEP 7 and TIA Portal
IDEs that use generic ASCII files
PLCopen XML

It's part of Matlab. Theoretically useful for testing out/tuning complicated control loops. Not sure how practical it is for machine control/sequencing. I think we used Matlab & Simulink in college, but not the PLC code exporter. Never heard of it being used in the real world, but I'm sure someone does.
 
Thanks. This tool is still under development and I'd think it could become a solution for hardware independent coding approach.
