Preprocessing Postprocessing Run sequence Remark ae BREN SITRAIN rag tr When created, an SFC chart has a sequencer (called RUN). It can be extended to include other sequencers (which can be inserted, moved or deleted in the chart in the lower ber using the right mouse button). After insertion. the sequencer can be displayed by clicking the associated tab, A logic can be constructed in the sequencer properties same as for with the transition. In this tab, you can define the conditions for the SFC chart/type that are to start the sequencer (e.g. "SFCName.RUN = Active" starts the sequencer if the SFC charts in "Active" mode). At any one time there Is always a maximum of ONE sequencer being processed (active) in an SFC chart. If the start conditions are fulfilled for several soquencers, the "Priority" property decides which ‘sequencer is executed (1 is the lowest and 255 the highest priority). If sequencers with start conditions that are futfled at the same time also have the same priority, the sequencer which is located further to the left is initiated first. In this tab, you can define the actions for the SFC chart or type _that must be carried out before each sequencer processing call (regardless of whether the respective current step is in initialization, processing or finishing). Each line constitutes one statement. Up to 50 statements are possible in each case. You ‘an change the selection of displayed statements (10) using the vertical scroll bar at the right-hand side. In this tab, you can define the actions for the SFC chart or type that must be carried out after each sequencer processing call. Here, too, up to 50 statements are permitted. ‘The preprocessing and postprocessing tabs are actuated before and after each ‘sequencer cycle, as long as the sequencer is active, The recommended rule here is: the SFC is called after the blocks that it queries in the transitions, but before the blocks that it writes with commands (to the extent possible). You will first create an SFC chart with one sequencer. Then, after more information is provided, you will add acditional sequencers to the SFC chart.

Those drivers are inserted in the CFC in which the process Value is needed. The symbolic name of the value is used to select the connection to the process value (via the symbol table). ‘The name is assigned to the individual hardware channel during the hardware configuration. No additional parameters must be set, except for the measuring range. After CPU selection, the CFC generates the necessary module drivers during compilation, elong with all of the necessary parameter settings (which are read from HW Config). ‘With V7.0 and higher, the CFC also inserts the CPU_RT block, which can carry out runtime measurements and avoid a CPU stop in the event of an overload. Remark With V5.2 and higher, you can also use universal drivers (CH_U_Al, CH_U_AO, CH_U_DI and CH_U_DO). They can be used for $7-400, ET 200M or Profibus PA field devices. If you want to configure an older CPU (from V4) using PCS 7 V6.0, you must continue to use the V4 libraries, or the CPU will be upgraded. Temperature control You can implement temperature control, for example, by using the CTRL_PID block from the same library. This block also has the faceplate necessary for ‘operator control and monitoring (for WinCC). Signaling You can use the MEAS_MON block, for example, for this.

The libraries that are not used should be hicden via the SIMATIC Manager file management function. It can be advantageous to create a separate library for ‘each project in the same project directory (master data library). To start, the blocks that will be used later in the project are collected there. If in the future the software is upgraded, this library can be updated across all subprojects. Use the SIMATIC Manager to create the new project. The Manager handles all of the data generated during configuration. Resources include the ASs in the project (with their hardware), the S7 programs (with blocks in the user program and with chart containers and the blocks imported to these chart containers vie CFC), networks, as well as the ES/OS PCs. Within the project, the AS/PC hardware components (CPU, CP, and I/O modules) must be configured in accordance with the hardware structure. This configuration downloaded to the AS and assigns the parameters for the modules. (PH) A hierarchy (with @ maximum of eight levels) is used to display the configured plant in the project. This hierarchy can correspond to the HID system (comparable to a diractory tree). ‘One AS and/or one OS can be assigned to each hierarchy level. The subordinate levels can inherit the assignment. CFC/SFC charts, OS displays, reports or documents belonging to the assigned AS/OS can be inserted in each level (as "leaves" on the "branch"). ‘AS-specific or OS-specific tools are used fo configure the software as needed From the AS, you open the abject in the plant hiorarchy to start the software. The software must be loaded onto the configured hardware for this. Each configuration tool you use provides testing opportunities for online operation.

Exercise Create a PCS 7 muttiproject in which one project is created for the AS side and one for the OS side. in each project, configure the hardware for the devices used (AS or PC) and download the configuration to the devices. Steps 1. Create the multiproject using the SIMATIC Manager. 2. Create the two projects in the multiproject (one project for the AS, the other project for the OS). 3. Set the language for the display devices (in which language the plant operator will read his textual information). 4. Configure the hardware used in each of the projects. 5, Compile and dovnload the configurations to the devices. Remark Stops 4 and 5 can also be performed after the entire configuration has been completed, at the latest before debugaing and startup.

This query is necessary as the subsequent language selection will affect the message texts offered during configuration. 3.2 Provided you only want to use German, all you have to do is set it as the default language. I you want the project to be available in multiple languages, itis advisable to set ‘the default language to English (USA). Provision is also made for French, Italian and Spanish in PCS 7 libraries and in WinCC. You can easily add these languages to the “installed languages” If you want to uss the project in a different language (other than German, English, French, Italian, or Spanish), we recommend setting English as the default language ((,e., do not enter any additional languages in the “Installed Languages in Project” box) and installing the required language in WinCC later (this is explained in detail for the OS project). The English texts found there {in WinCC) can be exported, translated and reimported. The language setting must be made for each project within the multiproject! The project language displayed in the properties of the project corresponds to the Windows language when the project was created, and cannot be subsequently changed.

The piant presented at the beginning of the chapter is to be reflected in the project In a so-called "Plant view" (also known as Plant Hierarchy). The AS ("ASxx") you configured a litle while ago will be used to automate the two structurally identical “A and °B" reactors, the OS ("OSxx)" you configured will be used for operator control and monitoring, Plant hierarchy You can call a plant-related view (through PCS7) in the project (in the SIMATIC Manager) View -> Plant View This view is intially emoty. Select the project name, then right-click and select New Object -> Hierarchy Folder You can then rename the new folders. After selecting a hierarchy folder, you can structure the secondary plant hierarchy in the same manner. Result: The piant view mirrors the structure of the plant. In our exercise we will create a PH with 4 levels. ‘We will use Level 1 as the factory designation.

We will use Level 3 for the units (e.g. as Unit A, Unit C or Reactor A, Reactor C) Level 4 will describe the function (e.g., temperature control or inflow) The plant folders must each be assigned to one AS and/or one OS so that the ‘automation task runs in the correct AS (the one that is "wired directly” to the plant) and the monitoring objects (pictures) are created in the correct OS. Select a hierarchy folder, then right-click and select Object Properties - AS-OS Assignment. Ifyou select the "Lower-level objects...” check box, the lower-level directories will algo inherit the assignment. When the AS is assigned, its chart folder is recorded (containing all CFC and SFC charts that run on the assigned AS). Select the AS ("ASxx") The reason for assignment to the chart container and not to the CPU is as follows: Ifyou have not yet specified the hardware, you can insert an $7 program (software only) into the project. You can assign the program's chart folder to the Plant View. After you specify the hardware, you can cut and paste this S7 program into the CPU, which is now known. It replaces the (still empty) S7 program of this CPU configured using HW-Config. The already configured plant hierarchy and software also migrate. Select the OS ("OSx') The pictures configured later in the hierarchy folder are kept in this OS. Select a hierarchy folder, then right-click and select New Object -> (CFC, SFC, pictures, etc. ) to insert and name the relevant objects. These objects are implicitly inserted in the assigned AS (chart folder) or OS, where the objects are also loaded and must be executed. PH assignments can only refer to devices (AS/OS) that are located in the same project. However, identical names of the PH in different projects of a multiproject refer to the same plant component to be configured within the multiproject.

Remark You can only assign those ASs or OSs that are locatad in the same project as the PH folder that is currently being assigned. HMI Attributes ‘The OS area ID for the hierarchy folder of the level selected as the OS area is displayed in the Control and Monitoring Attributes tab. The ID is preset with the name of the PH folder for this level. The area ID is passed on to (i.e. inherited by) all of the lower level hierarchy folders, OS pictures, OS reports and messages. This means that all lower-level hierarchy folders with their pictures belong to one plant area in the OS. This affects the arza-spectfic authorizations for operating personnel IF the picture hierarchy is to be based on the plant hierarchy, the "Order..." button and the *Picture name for OS" field are active ("Picture name for OS" only if the S area ID is not active). The name of the hierarchy folder is entered as tho default setting for the picture name. The operator sees this name displayed in the WinCC picture hierarchy. Remark All of the settings are associated with the AS/OS that you have assigned.
