Breakpoints

Breakpoints are used for debugging an application program. Breakpoints enable the program to be stopped at a defined position or executed in defined steps.

The breakpoint list is displayed in a window. This is opened via the menu ribbon, “VIEW” tab, [Breakpoints] button.

The “DEBUG” tab enables breakpoints to be set at the actual position in the Programming Editor ([New] button). It is also possible to toggle between the active and inactive state of a breakpoint ([Toggle] button).

Program symbols:

Breakpoint active

Breakpoint inactive

Stop at the breakpoint in online mode

Further information on creating and editing breakpoints can be found in CODESYS online help: (“Breakpoints”).
