InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 7


2. User accounts
Change password for the existing default administrator account or replace that account with a
completely new one BEFORE the controller is put into regular operation mode.
Do not leave PC tools (e.g. InteliConfig) unattended while a user, especially administrator, is logged in.
3. AirGate Key
Change the AirGate Key BEFORE the device is connected to the network.
Use a secure AirGate Key – preferably a random string of 8 characters containing lowercase, uppercase
letters and digits.
Use a different AirGate Key for each device.
4. MODBUS/TCP
The MODBUS/TCP protocol (port TCP/502) is an instrumentation protocol designed to exchange data
between locally connected devices like sensors, I/O modules, controllers etc. By it's nature it does not
contain any kind of security – neither encryption nor authentication. Thus it is intended to be used only in
closed private network infrastructures.
Avoid using MODBUS/TCP in unprotected networks (e.g. Internet).
5. SNMP
The SNMP protocol (port UDP/161) version 1 and version 2 are not encrypted. They are intended to be
used only in closed private network infrastructures.
Avoid using SNMP v1 and v2 in unprotected networks (e.g. Internet).

A. Configuration bookmarks – bookmarks sort out the controller configuration to few categories:
Setpoints – configuration of Setpoints.
Controller I/O – configuration of binary and analog inputs or outputs.
Sensors – adjusting analog sensor curves.
Modules – configuration of extension modules, CAN modules and ECU.
PLC Editor – allows to add control logic, additional alarm functions or even new features to meet
complex or unique requirements
Others – configuration of controller's additional functions: Init screen, Languages, Access rules,
Units/Power format, Modbus and Firewall.
B. Configuration window – main configuration window. The content may vary according to chosen
bookmark.
C. Info panel – contains basic information about the selected setpoint or Input / Output. Content and visibility
of the panel may vary according to chosen bookmark.
D. Tool bar – bar with handy tool while configuring setpoints. For more information see the chapter of
Setpoints (page 43)

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 42


6.2.3 Setpoints
The Setpoints bookmark enables you to view and adjust each Setpoint present in the controller.
The Setpoints bookmark in Configuration window shows the same parameters as main Setpoints window
described in the separated chapter, see Setpoints on page 95.
IMPORTANT: The difference in both Setpoints windows is in the approach of parameter changing.
In case of separated Setpoints window the change of the parameter is immediately written into the
controller. Contrary to that any changes in parameters in Setpoints as a part of Configuration
window are written into the controller after pressing of Write button only.

6.2.4 Forced Values


This function allows forcing of preconfigured value into selected setpoints via activation of LBI. Each LBI can
force only one value into one setpoint. Number of LBIs depends on controller type and FW version. You can see
current states of all LBIs in value Forced Value Status. Setpoints for which is Forced Value already configured
are marked with gray arrow in InteliConfig and on display.
Note: LBIs can be renamed during configuration. We suggest you to rename them based on used function.

IMPORTANT: You can not change value of setpoint which has active Froced Value function.

Forced Value Priority


One setpoint can have multiple configured Forced Values which are ordered from highest to lowest priority.
In case of conflict, highest priority value which is valid, is used.
In case that Forced Value is out of setpoint's range, value is capped by either maximal or minimal limit or
respective setpoint.
In case that Forced Value is invalid, another active Forced Value is used based on priority order. If there is
not any other active (or configured) Forced Value which could be used, setpoint keeps it's original value.
Setpoint Samax with configured Forced Value in InteliConfig (Setpoints monitoring window).

Note: Setpoints that are currently being forced their arrow turns to green color and they also have the option for
writing of different value manually disabled.

Setpoint Samax witch is currently Forced on InteliConfig (Setpoints monitoring window).

Configuration of Forced Value


Forced Value can be configured only via InteliConfig (Setpoints tab) during standard configuration of the
controller and only for selected setpoints. Setpoints to which Forced Value can apply are marked with flag
button.

– It is possible create Forced value definition but currently there is no one defined.

– At least one Forced value definition exists for this Setpoint.

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 43


Clicking that button opens pop-up window containing all already configured Forced Values conditions. Priority of
configured Forced Values is given by order and is descendent – first row has highest priority.

Image 6.3 Forced values window description

Source from which is setpoint going to be forced. Source has to have the same resolution and
dimension as target setpoint.
Name of LBI which activates the Forced Value
Note: This can be also changed from tab LBI/LAI

Used trigger which is connected with Forcing LBI.

List of already configured Forced Values for specific setpoint. First row has highest priority.

Options for adding, removing and editing Forced Values and options for changing order.

There are 2 types of Setpoints which allows use Forced value functionality:
Numeric Setpoint: In this case, source could be only another numeric Setpoint or Value with the same
resolution and dimension.
List Setpoint(setpoint, where its value is selected from the list): In this case, source is constant selected
from the same list of options as forced setpoint.
Note: When writing configuration into Controller, Setpoints which are actually forced are not rewritten
(generally, it is not possible change value of setpoint which has active forcing).

6.2.5 User Setpoints


User Setpoints are setpoints, created by user. Maximum number of User Setpoints depends on controller type
and its firmware version.
User Setpoints are signed numbers (int32).
User Setpoints can be used in any part of configuration same as standard numeric setpoints (PLC, Forced value
definitions, Protections...).
User Setpoint parameters::
Name (up to 32 characters)
Dimension (it is possible define new dimension)
Resolution (number of decimal places)
Allowed range

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 44


Default value (this value is stored in configuration and user can set typical value. This value can be changed
in Configuration window only)
Group/Subgroup (Setpoint is placed at the end of selected group/subgroup).
There is a flag telling if the User Setpoint was created automatically or manually. When User Setpoint was
created automatically (for example when it is created as protection parameter), it also automatically deleted
when this protection is deleted, but only in case this User Setpoint is not used in other places within a
configuration.

Image 6.4 User setpoint definition window

There are extended possibilities when working with User Setpoints from InteliConfig version 2.35.0.
It is possible to create user groups and subgroups.
This functionality is only available for selected controllers. Maximum number of user groups/subgroups
depends on controller type and its firmware version.
It is possible to change order of user groups/subgroups.
There is a limitation that user groups must be at the end of list under all groups defined in default
configuration.
It is possible to change order of User Setpoints within a subgroup.
There is a limitation that User Setpoints must be placed at the end of list under all setpoints defined in
default configuration.

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 45


Image 6.5 User setpoints/groups/subgroups management window

6.2.6 User Protections


It is possible (when supported in controller) create protection on any binary or analog value (numeric data type
only). Protected value is not limited only to analog/binary inputs.
There are 2 ways how to create User Protection:

1. In tab I/O configuration, click on button in section Protections for selected input. Window for protection
definition is automatically opened and protected value is selected (cannot be changed in this situation).

2. In tab Protections, select type of protected value (binary or analog). Click on button to open window with
definition of new protection.

Image 6.6 Analog protection definition window.

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 46


Configuring protection
1. Select protected value (source)
a. When value is selected, setpoints for Limit and Delay are automatically created with correct format
2. Select Protection type, Active when, Block type, History record , Evaluation period.
3. Define protection name. This name is also used as text displayed in Alarmlist. Prefix is automatically
defined based on Protection type and cannot be changed.
4. Change objects for Limit and Delay if needed. It is possible use different object with correct format or change
properties of automatically created setpoints (change name, range, group/subgroup).
5. If you need binary information that this protection was evaluated as active, check "Protection State". This
will create binary value with the same name as protection in Values - User Protection States.

6.2.7 Inputs/Outputs Configuration


In the InteliConfig exist two ways of inputs/outputs configuration. The type of configuration is dependent on
controller type and it cannot be manually selected. In the manual these two ways are described as version 1 and
version 2.

Version 1
Configuration of inputs/outputs is separated for controller and each configured module see Inputs/Outputs
Configuration (ver. 1) on page 48
Controller inputs/outputs can be configured from the bookmark in the configuration window named Controller
I/O
Module inputs/outputs can be configured in bookmark named Modules
After the module is added to configuration, the new bookmark IO Configuration appears for each
configured module

Version 2
Configuration of all inputs/outputs is available in the bookmark I/O Configuration see Inputs/Outputs
Configuration (ver. 2) on page 54
In the device tree is possible to select only items from the specific device or display items from all devices
The full-text filter is available

While configuring Binary inputs there are available 3 different options – in the field of Function choose:
A. Not Used – for the case that the Binary input is not wired or you don't want to use it.
B. Controller function – prepared functions directly in the controller as breaker feedbacks, external buttons
etc.. In this case it is possible in advanced to configure only:
Contact type as Normally close or Normally open.
C. General protection – in case you choose the general protection (as a default named as "BIN Protection #) it
is possible to predefined other values such as:
Name – Filled name will appear in case of activation in the Alarm list or History.
Contact type – Normally close or Normally open.
Protection type of the activated binary input:

Monitoring - it is possible to see the value in the Controller, in SCADA or in LE Values window but
no action is executed.
HistRecOnly – activating of such a binary input will cause the record to the History (including all
other values) but no alarm will be announced in Alarm list.
Wrn – Warning, activating of the binary input will cause the Warning alarm which is visible at the
controller and InteliConfig side too. Warning alarm is immediately written to the History.

Configuration of CAN modules without slots


This system allows add more CAN modules than system with slots. There is no reserved resources for each
slot as in slot system but resources are assigned from whole pool (resources are defined by Module Index
parameter).
To add CAN module(s):
1. Open the online / offline connection with the controller.

2. Go to Controller Configuration and choose the bookmark of Modules.


3. Click on "Add New Module" in section CAN Modules.

4. Select wanted CAN module from the list and click at button. Only available

Set correct "Module Index". This field determine address used for communication with module. Offered are
only available indexes (list of indexes depends on other CAN modules in configuration and resources in
Controller).
6. It is possible select protection when communication with module is interrupted. Activation of this protection
could be indicated by binary value in User Protection States by check this option in Module Settings. Binary
value is automatically named by protection type (Wrn or Sd) and module name (for example "Wrn
MyModule").
7. Go to I/O Configuration for added CAN module and set I/O configuration for this module.

8. Click at Write button to take the configuration into effect.

Generic Modules
When configuring CAN Modules, physical module is usually use (like Inteli AIN8, Inteli IO8/8 etc.). But this
system has some limitations:
Some modules allows set different address for inputs and outputs. In this system is combination input and
output address fixed.
It is required to configure some specific module which coud have variable number of I/Os (and use variable
number of addresses) like InteliFieldbus Gateway.
It is required to configure some special module which is not officially supported

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 69


To offer more, generic modules system was added .

What is Generic module


Each physical module (like Inteli AIN8, Inteli IO8/8 etc.) is combination of generic modules Generic modules
exists in 4 types - Analog inputs, Analog outputs, Binary inputs and Binary outputs. Each type can have up to 8
I/Os of the relevant type (8 binary or 8 analog inputs or outputs). This one module we can name as Generic
module.
For example Inteli IO8/8 is composed of 1x BI, 1x BO and 1x AO, it is composed of 3 Generic modules.
Generic module could be added as standard physical module. Each Generic module has independent module
properties. User can use more Generic modules to configure one physical CAN module to fulfill his special
requirements.
Note: Because it is generic module not directly connected with any physical module, it is possible configure all
parameters used for any physical module. For example for Generic BI module it is possible set Pull Up / Pull
Down parameter but there is no check, that it is supported on used HW. Similary, for Generic AI module are
offered all HW configurations of inputs. It is user responsibility to use only options supported by used HW.

6.2.10 Logical Binary Inputs (LBI) / Logical Analog Inputs (LAI)


This tab allow define source for any LBI/LAI.
For each LBI, it is possible use any binary signal available in controller. This signal could be inverted if needed.
For each LAI, it is possible use any analog value with numeric data format. Note, that LAI expects correct
format of value, it means right number of decimal places. If number of decimal places is different than expected,
controller functionality could be incorrect. See controller manual for details.

Sheet inputs are located at the left side of a sheet. Follow the procedure below to add or edit an input.
Double-click on a free input position or existing input to add new input or edit the existing one.
Select the source for the input.
If you create a binary input, you can select a source from the following categories:
Binary Values – contains all binary values available in the controller as binary inputs, logical binary
outputs etc.
If you create an Analog input, you can select a source from the following categories:
Analog Values – contains all analog values available in the controller as analog inputs, electrical
values, values from ECU etc.
All Setpoints – contains all setpoints of the controller except the dedicated PLC setpoints. Names,
resolutions and dimensions of these setpoints can not be modified
PLC Setpoints – contains a group of setpoints which are dedicated for using in the PLC program.
PLC setpoints can be changed according to need of PLC blocks where they are used. Editing the
setpoint is provided by the edit button in the bottom toolbar of the table.

Outputs
Sheet outputs are located at the right side of a sheet. Follow the procedure below to add or edit an output.
Double-click on a free output position to add new binary or analog sheet output.
Double-click on an already created binary output to configure it onto a binary output terminal or a logical
Binary input (first of all some PLC block output has to be connected to this output to enable its
configuration).
Double-click on an already created analog output to configure it onto an analog output terminal or a logical
Analog input (first of all some PLC block output has to be connected to this output to enable its
configuration).

Creating wires
Wires can be created between PLC inputs and PLC blocks and between PLC blocks and PLC outputs.
IMPORTANT: Keep the order of starting and finishing connection points. Wires between inputs and
blocks have to start from inputs. Wires between blocks and outputs have to start from blocks.

Follow the procedure below to create wire.


Locate the mouse pointer over the starting point of the wire. If the area under the mouse pointer is a
connection point, the pointer will change the color (fill of pointer will be white).
Press and hold the left mouse button and drag the wire to the destination of required connection point. If you
point over a valid connection point, the connection point will be marked with a red circle.
Release the left mouse button to create a wire between the two points. The wire is routed automatically.

Note: It is possible to make connection only between the outputs and inputs with the same type of value (binary
or analog). Binary values are marker by black pointer, analog values are marked with green pointer.

Note: To delete wire just click on it and press delete button on your keyboard. Also delete selection function
can by used by selecting more objects and clicking on the delete selection button

Multisheet
There is support of Multisheet functionality. It is possible create more sheets, for example each sheet for
specific functionality.

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 75


Each sheet could have user editable name and note. Just doubleclick on header of sheet. When Hints are
enabled, by place mouse cursor to header, name and note is displayed.
It is possible add new PLC Sheet, Delete selected PLC sheet (including its content) and move PLC Sheet up
and down.
When there is need to use value representing output of PLC block located on another PLC Sheet, it is not
necessary connect this output to right ladder to be able use it in different PLC Sheet. On any PLC Sheet it is
possible use any existing value with supported data type.

Image 6.29 Management of PLC sheets

Note: Multisheet functionality is connected only with right version of InteliConfig. It is not conditioned by the
controller version.

Import/Export
It is possible Export selected PLC sheet into file. This file can be used to import this PLC sheet into different
configuration.
When importing file into selected PLC sheet, user is asked to confirm that current content of PLC sheet will be
deleted.
During process this data are imported:
All PLC blocks including their settings.
Wiring between PLC blocks
Sheet name and description
Connection to LBI/LAI if this LBI/LAI is not already connected to any source
Data not imported:
Source signals from rest of configuration including other PLC sheets
Connection to physical outputs

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 76


Note: When PLC sheet is exported, all connection are defined by communication object numbers. Not all
objects may exist in the target configuration or may have a different meaning. Due this, connection to rest of
configuration is not imported. But we are working on some improvement in this area.

IMPORTANT: You can get unexpected error message when connecting to controller or opening
configuration with more PLC sheets in configuration from older version of InteliConfig (without
support of PLC Multisheet). In this case download and install latest version of InteliConfig (PLC
Multisheet is supported from version 2.17.0).

Note: Number of PLC Blocks on one sheet is limited to 30 if they are added manually. However, it is possible
import PLC Sheet with more than 30 PLC blocks. When more PLC Blocks are needed, split functionalitu
between 2 or more PLC Sheets.

Export/Import of PLC sheet

Export
Each PLC sheet can be exported to file. Exported is name of PLC sheet, description, content of sheet (PLC
blocks, its settings, wiring, layout...).
It is possible export only one sheet at once. There is no option to export all PLC sheets into one file.

Import
It is possible import PLC sheet definition inot selected PLC sheet. When PLC sheet is not empty, the user is
warned that its contents will be overwritten.
Imported are only some definitions from saved file.
This is not imported:
Inputs of PLC blocks which are connected to any object out of this PLC sheet
Outputs of PLC blocks which are connected any I/O (Binary or Analog outputs of Controller or its physical or
virtual modules)
Connections to LAI/LBI are imported when exists in configuration and are not already assigned to other
source

PLC logic execution rules


The PLC program is executed every 100 ms. The blocks are executed in order according to block numbers (item
numbers), which are indicated in each block. The block numbers are assigned automatically according to
position on sheet.
As first are evaluated PLC blocks on first PLC sheet, than on second and so on.

Image 6.30 PLC execution logic

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 77


IMPORTANT: Please always check that the blocks are ordered correctly, especially if you use direct
feedbacks from outputs to inputs within one sheet. Wrong order may lead to incorrect results!!!

Other functions

Search
Use this function to search in all inputs, outputs and sheet names. Search will go through all sheets (including
collapsed) and highlight all occurrences with an option to go through them one by one.

Delete whole content of sheet


Use this function to delete the whole content of sheet (including blocks, wires, inputs, outputs, etc...).

Hints
Use this function to enable or disable quick hints for blocks (controller help is not affected by this function).

PLC monitor
PLC monitor is a powerful tool for monitoring your PLC . Just click on PLC monitor button on main InteliConfig
page to see your PLC. Active inputs and outputs have blue color. Also wires with active signals have blue color.
IMPORTANT: It is not possible to edit PLC in PLC monitor tool.

Image 6.32 Translator

Each available language has its own Default dictionary with translations prepared by ComAp. If there is no
translation in this dictionary or user wants to use different translation, automatically is created User dictionary
for specific language to store all user translations. The User dictionary takes precedence over the Default
dictionary. The User dictionary can be exported to disk and imported on another PC. But only one User
dictionary for each language can exists on PC.

Translator use color indication for each text to indicate different states
Text not translated. It is possible to use user translation.
Text in specific language is the same as in English and does not exist in User or Default
dictionary.
Text has been translated earlier but there is no translation in current dictionaries. It is possible to
add this text to user dictionary.
Text in specific language is different from English (text was translated earlier by different user) and
there is no translation in User or Default dictionary.

Text translated using user dictionary. It is possible to remove this text from user dictionary.

Text translated using default dictionary. It is possible to use user translation.

Text has been translated earlier, but there is a different translation in the current dictionaries. It is
possible to add / update translations in user dictionary.
Text cannot be translated. This is default language or default dictionary for this language is missing.
Because User dictionary is connected with Default dictionary for specific language, it cannot exist when there is no Default
dictionary.

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 81


Operations with texts available in translator

Add selected text to the user dictionary.

Add all yellow-marked texts to the user dictionary.

Add all red-marked texts to the user dictionary.

Delete selected translation from the user dictionary.


Text is automatically translated using Default dictionary. If there is no translation, text is replaced by
English text.

Translate all texts in all languages.

Operations with User dictionaries

Export dictionaries to file.

Import dictionaries from file.

It is possible to export dictionaries to the disk as package (extension is .psidict). User can select which
dictionaries will be included into package. Displayed are only languages where User dictionary exists. Exported
is always pair of dictionaries (User nad Default) – It is usefull, if it is required to copy Used dictionaries from one
PC to another.
During import (allowed are only packages with extension .psidict) can user select which dictionaries will be
imported. It is not necessarry to import all dictionaries contained in package.
Note: When importing dictionaries, existing dictionaries are rewrited by imported ones.

Access rules
ComAp controllers support at least 2 different user approaches to the controller – without the password and with
the password. Protected approach can be differentiated to another 3 different groups. Setting of access rules:

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 82


1. Open the online / offline connection with the controller.

2. Go to Controller Configuration and choose the bookmark of Control


3. Go to the group of Access rules.
4. Within all setpoints, organized by groups, select the access right for each user:

User 0 can be disallowed to perform selected commands


Password level 1 – User 1

User 1 can be allowed to either read only or read and write the setpoint

User 1 can be disallowed to perform selected commands


Password level 2 User 2

User 2 can be allowed to either read only or read and write the setpoint

User 2 can be disallowed to perform selected commands


Password level 3 – Administrator

Administrator is allowed to change any setpoint without any limitation

Administrator has the full access to all commands

Image 6.33 Access rules window - description

It is possible to set following rights:


Read Only

The user is able to see the value of the setpoint but he is not allowed to change it
Read and Write

The user is allowed to see and change the value of the setpoint
In addition it is possible to choose the visibility of the Setpoint, it can be either:
Standard

The setpoint is visible all the time

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 83


Advanced only

The setpoint is visible at the controller only when switched to Advanced mode

5. Click at Write to take the configuration into effect.


For the information how to set up Password and define user levels see Change access code on page 114.
IMPORTANT: InteliConfig PC SW is in the group of Basics Settings showing in the fact some of
Setpoints from the group of Alternate Configuration - e.g. Nominal frequency, Nominal current,
Nominal voltage etc. Please consider this fact during configuration of Access rules.

Units / Power format


InteliConfig supports both Metric and US Units/Power format. In this tab you can also define required Power
format.

Image 6.34 Units / Power format setting

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 84


Modbus
InteliConfig supports create user definition of Modbus registers

Image 6.35 Modbus definition

Controller supports access to most its objects using Modbus protocol. This window allows to define list of
Modbus registers and its meaning (connection Modbus register <->controller object).
In configuration are three groups of objects. Each group has assigned range of Modbus registers.
Binary objects: <0...999>
Values: <1000...2999>
Setpoints: <3000...3999>
Default controller configuration may contain some Modbus definition. This definition can be modified based on
user needs. If there is no definition (group is empty), definition could be created.
Available operations:

– Add new Modbus register. Free Modbus register is predefined as default, can be changed in allowed range.
Controller object is selected from the list.

– Delete selected Modbus register.

– Edit already defined Modbus register

– Export Modbus definition to file

– Import Modbus definition from file. This replaces while Modbus definition in configuration (remove all
defined Modbus registers and import Modbus registers from file).
Each Modbus register can contain 2 bytes of data. In controller exist objects, which are bigger than 2 bytes
(statistics values, text setpoints...). It is necessary to use more Modbus registers for this objects. When
configuring Modbus register for this object, only first Modbus register is chosen by user. System automatically
use following registers for other bytes (Modbus register is increased by +1). There must be enough free space in
Modbus table definition to allow create appropriate number of Modbus registers. Othervise Modbus register
cannot be added. This Modbus registers are in gray, it means cannot be edited or deleted separately.
There is example of Modbus definition for setpoint Gen-set name:

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 85


It is allowed to have more different Modbus registers for the same object.
Modbus registers definition table is automatically sorted by Modbus column.
In window is available Search functionality. This will find any text in definition table in selected group.

Firewall
Firewall rules are used to explicitly define parameters of incoming TCP/UDP communication, which will be
accepted by the controller. All other communication will be dropped. Firewall is by default disabled on
controllers, which support this functionality.
A firewall rule definition consists of:
1. IP address
2. Address mask
3. Port

Image 6.36 Firewall window

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 86


To add new firewall rule, click on add new row icon and fill in all required values

To remove firewall rule, click on delete row icon

History Editor
Each configuration has definition of history, it means which values are stored in each history record. It is
possible to change this definition based on user's need on this tab.
Allowed operations:
Add value into definition
Remove value from definition
Change order of values in definition
Change abbreviation of each value
Export and import history definition
Each value can be in the definition only once.
When new value is added, abbreviation is automatically predefined for ECU, CAN modules or Virtual modules.
For other values it is predefined as " " (one space) - this field cannot be empty. Abbreviation can be changed by
user.
Controller has dedicated space for each history record. This space cannot be exceeded. Used/available space
in history record is indicated by fill indicator below. When there is no space in history definition, value cannot be
added (each value use different space so it could be possible add only some values when space for history is
almost full).
History definition could be exported and imported into different configuration. During import, some values might
not be imported if they are missing in target configuration.
When History Editor is available for controller, there are changes for history in module management (tab
Modules). It is possible to add all module values into history by checking Add to history option before module is
added. This option is unchecked by default for Virtual modules. There is a check that enough space is available
in history definition. If not, some values might not be added and user is informed about it. In this case, use
History Editor to remove some less important values from the definition.
Note: This editor may not be available for all controllers

6.2.13 Configuration Lock
It is possible lock Configuration to prevent is from unauthorised access. When locked, it is not possible open
Configuration window or PLC Monitor without valid password. Password is also required when using functions
where Configuration is changed (like FW upgrade, Bulk/offline upgrade etc.).
How to lock configuration
Open Configuration window
Click on Configuration Lock (on bottom part of window)

Image 6.38 Checkbox for setting lock of configuration

Set password (enter the same password twice to confirm).


Password validation has the same parameters like password in User management
When Configuration Lock is checked, Configuration is locked when uploaded into controller or saved to file

How to work with locked Configuration


User is asked to enter valid password when working with locked Configuration. Normal monitoring (except
PLC Monitor) is not affected by Configuration Lock.
User is asked only once for each connection. Until Connection is closed, password is remembered by
InteliConfig.
To remove Configuration Lock, just open Configuration and uncheck Configuration Lock.
To change password, remove Configuration Lock and set Configuration Lock again.
It is possible upload locked Configuration to Controller (Import Configuration) without knowing the
password.

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 89


Bulk/offline upgrade:
When upgrading Configuration one-by-one and archive with locked configuration is found, user is asked to
enter the password. When password is valid, configuration is upgraded and process continue.
All valid passwords entered during this operation are remembered. When next archive has locked
configuration, all stored passwords are used to try to open configuration. When unsuccessful, user is
asked to enter valid password.
User can skip archive if password is unknown.
All passwords entered during this operation are forgotten when finish.

Note: When Configuration Lock is used, PLC definition is ciphered. Configuration Lock can be used also
without any PLC definition in Configuration.

Note: Configuration Lock is supported only in some Controllers and only from specific FW version. For detail,
see Controller manual.

6.2.14 Consistency check


There may be various inconsistencies in the configuration. It is very hard to allow only consistent changes
during configuration process and it is also very limiting to user, in some situation temporary inconsistency is
required.
To have final configuration without inconsistencies, Consistency check functionality is available to user.

Consistency check could be manually started by user by click on button located near
Write button. Consistency check is also automatically started when "Write" is clicked and during "Save As"
from Configuration window. Consistency check is available in Configuration.
User is noticed about all inconsistencies in configuration in separate window. This window can be kept

displayed as long as the Configuration window is open. To refresh data, click on button in this

window or on button in Configuration window.


More than one inconsistencies (individual reports) could have the same season (for example incompatible
resolution of User Setpoint).

changes in system for other users (for example remotely).
When Access Lock is active, it is not possible to do by other users:
Change Setpoints
Change Controller Mode
Start/Stop the engine, Open/Close breakers
Change Configuration
Update FW
Change Access Management
Change User Management
Write Clone
Access Lock is activated to actually logged user regardless on connection type.
Note: When Access Lockis activated for user and user logout, Access Lock remains active. When the user
logs in (from any terminal), controller will be locked to him again.

Note: When Access Lock is active for any user, different user can deactivate Access Lock. This right has
usually only user with Administrator rights but it depends on controller.

Current status of Access Lockis indicated in Ribbon (button for Access Lock control) and on template (detailed
and multi-connection).
Meaning of icons:

Access Lockis not active. All users can make changes in Controller based on their rights.

Access Lockis active for currently logged user. Only this user can make changes.

Access Lock is active for any other user. Current user cannot make changes.

Access Lock can be activated/deactivated from InteliConfig or from display.

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 94


Note: This feature is not available in all controllers.

6.4.4 Production mode


Production mode allows you to work with the controller without the need to log in as an administrator. All
operations for which an administrator account is usually required are enabled even without logging in. It means
that until the production mode is turned off you have fully access as administrator. This mode could be helpful
during the commissioning when is not necessary to verify logged user. If this mode is on, it is signalized by the
different icon in the section, where level of logged user is displayed.

Production mode setting


Production mode can be set in the right part of the user management window. The setting is by a check-box
(turned on/turned off). If the production mode is turned on, the changes are applied immediately, but to use it is
necessary to log out.

6.5 Monitoring
6.5.1 Setpoints
The Setpoint window enables you to view and adjust each Setpoint present in the controller. It is possible to
choose whether some or all Setpoints require password protection from unauthorized changes. When displayed
within the window, any password protected Setpoint will be shown with a gray background and will remain
uneditable until a password of proper level is entered. In off-line mode, Setpoints can be altered without a
password, however, a password will be required later when the modified archive is written into the controller.
In cases where you need to copy across one or more Setpoint values from an archive file, use the Alternative
setpoints feature to provide assistance (see Control window on page 32).

InteliConfig 2.43.0 Global Guide 95


Note: For AirGate connections, when retrieving the history from the controller, the Setpoint window will be

Note: Some of the instruments may not be supported in a particular archive. The set of supported instruments
for each InteliVision type depend on version of screens definition used in this archive.

Note: Some of the instruments are intended for use in specific screen types only. E.g. ButtonCMD are to be
used only in Status bar screens as their function is linked to the position on the screen and to the hardware
buttons. On the other hand pointer meters are intended for using only on the metering screens as they are too
big to fit anywhere else.

6.9.9 ICD (Integrated color display) and InteliVision 5.2 screen
types and structures
ICD (Integrated color display) and InteliVision 5.2 contain one or more metering screen(s) and one or more
bottom status bar(s) screen. Each metering screen is connected with one status bar bottom. See the image in
the chapter Virtual screen.

Metering screens are editable, can be also added and removed. always at least one screen must remain in
the configuration. These screens contain measured and/or computed values, texts, simple drawings etc.
Status bar bottom screens are editable and can be added and removed. Status bar bottom screens are
linked to metering screens (i.e. together create pairs) and are displayed together. The pairs need not to be
1:1, it is possible to link one Status bar bottom screen to multiple metering screens (or even to all).
