Differences Omron ST and Siemens SCL

Question

What are the differences between Omron ST-Language and Siemens S7 SCL (definition of variables, the editor, syntax)? I know they both claim to be standardized by IEC 61131-3.

What Omron programming suites are there and is a structured language supported?

Answer 1

SCL (Structured Control Language) seems to be Siemens' version of Structured Text. So potentially there are a few differences but the overall concept and features will be the same.

In terms of programming for OMRON PLCs, there's Sysmac, which supports Structured Text and Ladder Diagrams.

Answer 2

They both belong to structural programming languages for PLC, just the company technology is different, For Siemens ST represented by SCL(structural control language), From my experience both programming languages are inherited from C_ programming language, and for better understanding the best is to go to Siemens's forums as well as Omron's forums they provide more detailed and accurate information.
