PLC Programming

A single solution for every stage of your project lifecycle

The MasterTool IEC XE is the software for programming, debugging, configuration, and application simulation used by all products of the Nexto System.

Designed to cover all stages of an automation and process control project's lifecycle, the tool offers advanced features that ensure efficiency, agility, and precision from development and commissioning to application maintenance.

With an intuitive interface and support for standardized languages, MasterTool IEC XE provides a complete, reliable, and integrated programming experience, ideal for designers, integrators, and engineering teams.

Speed and efficiency for your applications

The MasterTool IEC XE offers extensive monitoring and forcing capabilities for digital and analog variables during the commissioning phase, ensuring greater control and safety in system validation.

The tool allows for simultaneous, real-time visualization of registers and the program's source code, in addition to enabling online application editing and loading, optimizing adjustment and testing time in the field.

The Trace feature allows for graphical and practical monitoring of internal variables directly on the controller, facilitating data visualization and fault identification, without the need for supervisory systems or additional software.

All actions executed by the CPU and the developer are recorded in a retentive data log, allowing for future queries and analyses for auditing, traceability, and continuous improvement of applications.
Tecnologia CODESYS

CODESYS technology

MasterTool IEC XE utilizes the CODESYS platform as its technological base, ensuring a modern, standardized, and highly reliable programming experience, with advanced features for development, simulation, testing, and maintenance of industrial automation applications, excellently meeting the demands of small to large-scale projects.

Simulação avançada

Advanced simulation

It features an integrated simulation tool that allows for the evaluation and testing of algorithms and programming logic before field application. This resource provides greater safety, agility, and efficiency in development, reducing failures and facilitating the commissioning and maintenance of systems.

Personalizável

Customizable

Modern and customizable interface through docking features, which allows the user to personalize the work environment with adjustable windows and panels via docking resources, improving the developer's experience by easily adapting to the needs of each project stage.

Acessível

Accessible

MasterTool IEC XE is a free tool for simple applications, ideal for less complex projects, allowing the development of applications with up to 320 input and output points.

Velocidade e economia para sua aplicação

Speed and efficiency for your applications

MasterTool IEC XE offers powerful capabilities for monitoring and forcing digital and analog variables during the commissioning process. The tool enables real-time visualization of registers and source code, along with online editing and application loading.

Its "trace" function provides a clear, graphical view of internal variables directly from the controller, allowing for quick data visualization and troubleshooting—without needing SCADA systems or additional software. All actions taken by the CPU and the developer are logged in a retentive data log for future review and analysis.

Funções avançadas de programação e manipulação de dados

Advanced programming and data handling

With MasterTool IEC XE, you can develop advanced features such as process variable manipulation, recipe management, mathematical functions, PID control blocks, and timers.

You can also reuse functions across different applications thanks to the robust functional block library. Additionally, Nexto products support the MSSQL_CLIENT functional block, giving you direct access to Microsoft databases.

Configuração integrada entre recursos de comunicação

Streamlined communication configuration

Nexto integrates both field network and standard communication protocol configurations into a single platform, allowing users to manage all parameters in one place. This simplifies development and reduces engineering costs. You can also import and export configurations and application data for use in other projects.

Documentação e segurança para qualquer aplicação

Comprehensive documentation and security

MasterTool IEC XE gives you full control over your system, allowing you to store the complete source code along with comments, tags, and project descriptions. It also offers multiple access levels to controllers and data via user registration, user groups, passwords, and access rights management.

Ferramenta para simulação online de arquiteturas

Real-time architecture simulation

The built-in simulation tool allows you to test and evaluate programming logic before it goes live. It works both in real-time and offline, without needing to be connected to the controller.

By identifying errors early in the planning and specification stages, this tool helps reduce the risk of project failure. It also plays a key role in maintenance and commissioning, enabling you to safely test potential changes without disrupting the live system.

Software com ambiente altamente personalizável

A highly customizable environment

Available for free for XP Series PLCs, CPU NX3003, and applications with up to 320 I/O points, MasterTool IEC XE provides a modern, customizable interface with flexible docking options. Users can set up toolbars, tools, and menus to create a personalized development environment. The object-oriented, graphical programming is intuitive and includes advanced editing features, bringing together application software, field networks, and process networks in a unified platform.

Uma ferramenta completa com base em CODESYS

A complete solution powered by CODESYS

The software is based on the CODESYS technology platform, recognized as an international standard and global trend in industrial automation, offering complete features for all stages of a project's lifecycle, from development and simulation, through commissioning, to maintenance and adjustments in the field.
