What you can do with SCIL
By means of SCIL you can control the entire SYS 600 system, not only the features
related to the application, but also features related to the system configuration and
communication. With SCIL as your tool you can for instance (as shown in Figure
2.1.-2):
• Program the user interface portion of the application, e.g. define the dynamic
changes in pictures and dialogs, and program operator activated function keys
and buttons.
• Design various forms of process control, such as manual control, sequential
control, time control, event control, etc.
• Define routines for calculation and updating in databases to be started
automatically or manually.
• Design reports for presentation on monitor screens or for paper printout.
• Configure, supervise and handle system components, for example printers and
monitors.
• Build process simulations.
• Exchange data with other SYS 600 applications and with external (non-SYS 600)
applications (e.g. office applications).
