Abstract :
To make industrial control applications, many control flow diagrams are drawn using the domain graphic symbols. There are some well-known standards of control flow diagram, for example, IEC61131-3 programming languages for PLC, and ISA/SAMA functional diagram for process control. Although the integrated control systems that may cover both PLC and process control domains were launched, they had a typical problem that the most of programming environment were not integrated for each domain. For example, most of process control engineers have strong rejection reaction to IEC61131-3 programming. The authors solved this problem practically, studying the extensible custom symbol and the extended control flow diagram, and applying them to IEC61131-3 programming environment for the true integration
