A METHOD OF CONVERTING A LOGIC DIAGRAM IN A TEXTUAL FORMAT

摘要

The current disclosure describes a method of converting a logic diagram in a textual format using an engineering tool associated with a control system of an industrial facility. The method comprises detecting one or more rungs in the logic diagram; creating a textual element for the logic diagram, the textual element further comprises one or more text sub-elements, each text sub-element associated with a corresponding rung from the one or more rungs; and populating each text sub-element associated with a corresponding rung. Populating each text sub-element comprises detecting one or more branches on the corresponding rung and sequence of graphical elements on each branch from the one or more branches; and generating a sequence of text tokens based on the detected sequences of graphical elements and the one or more branches.
