While it is now considered legacy software, understanding V3.1 is essential for technicians working on "brownfield" sites. Its specific quirks—such as the Controller Assistant wizard and the manual symbol publishing for HMIs—require a different skillset than modern automation programming. For these reasons, maintaining a functional instance of SoMachine V3.1 remains an "exclusive" necessity for many legacy integrators.
SoMachine V3.1 is an integrated professional software solution based on CODESYS, designed to develop, configure, and commission an entire machine in a single software environment. It was specifically built for Schneider Electric’s range of logic controllers (PLC), HMI, and motion controllers. Why the "Exclusive" Tag? somachine v31 exclusive
