English term or phrase: Blockware
The PC XXX uses a "Blockware" configuration language. Functions (AIN, PID, LOALM, F(x).) are simply copied into a configuration, and then the control signals are "wired" from block to block.

ll y a t-il un équivalent français? Ou doit on conserver le terme anglais?

Merci encore,
Paula

Explanation:
It is possible "Blockware" is an industry standard or proper name for an industry standard? Perhaps, it should remain "Blockware." Your translation says "'wired' from block to block." Perhaps "Blockware" is like the term "hardware." Just something to think about.
