FLProg

FLProg is a Windows application that provides the user with a convenient environment for creating program code for the Arduino platform. The key feature - the work is carried out with the help of special logic blocks. They should be added from the catalog in the desired sequence, providing connection with others. Classical work with program code is not used. Despite the use of the constructor mode, the platform allows you to develop complex projects that are successfully used in various spheres.

Project

After starting the program it is necessary to perform initial setup of a new project. It is required to select the controller type and language LAD or FBD. ESP8266, ESP32, ATMega and a number of other boards are supported. There is a help section, which allows you to learn a brief description, hardware features and basic capabilities of the module. Next, the main working area is activated. The blocks available for selection are located in the right section. Adding and selecting a location is done by normal drag and drop. After adding, you can immediately open a panel with the available parameters. The catalog is structured and contains all necessary elements - sensors, timers, counters, conditional operators, complex blocks and much more. The general principle of operation is similar to a classic block diagram - they are often used in programming at the initial stage. Operations are performed from top to bottom, it is possible to change the direction depending on the conditions. The result obtained in the process of data processing can be transferred to a certain contact of the controller or written to the memory area for further use.

Compilation

After adding all modules and providing the required functionality, you can run an automatic check for standard errors. Then the project will be converted into a code, which is already "understood" by the connected board. To transfer the code to the microcontroller memory, you need to connect the board to the USB sockets and specify the port number.

Features

• the program is a visual programming environment for Arduino;
• you can create logic and electrical circuits;
• built-in library of elements;
• work is carried out in the constructor mode, each block has its own settings;
• the application can be downloaded free of charge.
