I think that if there is a serious problem about one brands IEC compliance then it should be noted. Then again, I never intended the chart to be so detailed or all-encompassing or even correct. Lets not try to put too much into this.
However, I see this coming with a certain un-avoidability. Sooner or later, you will find that to be able to bid on projects, you must agree to use IEC601131-3 languages.
When I started to collect all the information for the chart, it struck me most how much the IEC languages has spread.
Is this good or bad ? Personally I think there is more good than bad in standards.
If there is something to complain about IEC601131-3 it is that PLCopen isnt ambitious enough.

It is hypothetical. But IF I had to choose another PLC brand today, IEC Structured Text would be a MUST.S7Guy said:Does anyone actually use compliance as a positive or negative feature when choosing a PLC?
