4.5 Your first EDP program
This section is intended to guide you step-by-step through the process of creating your
first program with the easy Device Programming (EDP) language in order to wire a cir-
cuit diagram. This should enable you to become familiar with all the relevant rules and
use an easyE4 device for your own projects in no time. Just like with conventional wir-
ing, you will be using contacts and relays in the program. This means that the easyE4
device makes it possible to eliminate the use of these components in a variety of ways,
including the use of function blocks.
The easyE4 program will take care of the entire wiring for these components.
All you have to do is then connect to the easyE4any switches, sensors, lamps or con-
tactors you wish to use.
