MaxBasic 1.0

MaxBasic, developed by Siemens Applied Automation, is a BASIC-style scripting environment used to extend and customize Siemens process analytics and automation solutions, particularly in process gas chromatography. It allows engineers and integrators to build application-specific calculations, quality checks, and control logic directly into analyzer workflows, so measurement results can be validated, transformed, and reported in real time without relying on external systems.

Key capabilities include:

• Familiar, BASIC-like syntax for rapid development and easy maintenance
• Access to analyzer results and status for post-run calculations, data conditioning, and unit conversions
• Implementation of decision logic for events, alarms, and stream or method handling
• Deterministic, on-instrument execution with controlled deployment from Siemens workstation tools
• Support for standardized plant data exchange, helping integrate results with control and information systems

By bringing custom logic closer to the point of measurement, MaxBasic helps shorten commissioning timelines, improve data quality, and reduce the need for separate PLC or HMI customization. It is widely used in refining, petrochemical, and chemical applications where reliable, configurable analytical workflows are essential.

MaxBasic is developed by Siemens Applied Automation. The most popular versions of this product among our users are: 1.0 and 2.0. The name of the program executable file is MaxBasic.exe.
