PLC architecture analysis and documentation
ACE Codex draws architecture from the project file: processors, I/O, racks, remotes, communications, firmware and utilisation.
Racks and remotes
PCS Asset Map shows local chassis and Ethernet / ControlNet remotes, slot by slot. Hide empty slots or exclude produced/consumed PLCs so they are not added to the BOM.
Hardware, firmware, lifecycle
BOM Viewer lists catalog, firmware and network configuration. Lifecycle colour comes from the lifecycle file — Active vs Discontinued — not guessed marketing status.
Messaging and CPU
Messaging maps produced/consumed tags and MSG blocks across loaded L5X files. CPU Report shows utilisation, memory and connections from the L_CPU AOI snapshot plus static task data. Fleet Health uses the same dataset.
