What is PL7?

PL7 is a PLC programming language used in Telemecanique (now Schneider Electric) Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). It is a graphical language with ladder diagrams and instruction lists for industrial automation applications, controlling machinery and processes. While once prevalent, it's largely been superseded by newer IEC 61131-3 languages in modern Schneider Electric PLCs.
