Watch it work
Workflow overview

Watch it work.

Six short videos, in the order you would actually do the work: describe the machine, prove it with tests, watch it drive a machine that does not exist yet, wire it to real EtherCAT I/O, put a panel on it, then deal with everything that interrupts it.

Each one plays here, and each has its own link you can send to a colleague.

01

Control Logic 101

Start here. Building a machine as states and the conditions that move between them — the drawing that turns out to be the program.

02

Test Manager, Reports & Coverage

Write the tests, run the suite after every change, and read a coverage report that names the transitions nobody ever tried.

03

Digital Twin with TwinTick

The same control logic, driving a 3D model of the machine. You watch the sequence run, and find the ordering mistakes while the real machine is still on a drawing.

04

EtherCAT, and the Machine That Isn’t Wired Yet

Real EtherCAT I/O driven by StateTick — and what to do about the half of the machine that has no sensors on it yet. The twin stands in for the hardware that has not arrived, so the same logic runs against real drives and simulated ones at once.

05

HMI Builder with Touch Studio

Building the operator panel against the controller’s own variables — so the panel and the logic cannot disagree about what anything is called.

06

Abort & Interrupt

Every real machine gets stopped, held and resumed. In StateTick that is behaviour the controller provides, not scaffolding you rebuild around every sequence.

Where to go next

New here? What is StateTick is the written version of the whole picture — the controller, the ecosystem and the four ways into it.
