Whether boards, IPCs, or IT farms: With CODESYS Virtual Safe Control SL, every system is turned into one or more safety controllers – completely independent of the hardware infrastructure! The virtual safety PLC is certified according to IEC 61508 SIL3, currently for x86-based systems with Profinet/Profisafe (F-Host) and EtherCAT Safety (FSoE). Support for ARM-based platforms will be added in the course of 2026. Benefits for users: Massive savings in costs and effort for procurement, wiring, and maintenance, while at the same time strengthening IT security.
