What is special about Logicator as a control medium?
A. Logicator has made the programming of PIC ® single chip computers into a logical and high level process of design. A flow chart is drawn on the screen representing the control algorithm for the process. This is then automatically translated into low-level PIC code and burnt into the 40-pin PIC chip. The program can be tested against an on-screen simulation, or an electronic simulator, and then with the FLEXY-1 system. An interface board contains a screen which provides full I/O feedback for fault finding. Completed control algorithms can be printed out as a flowchart or converted into a BASIC program as an end product to the learning process.
