Lesson: Construct a Picture, add Title and Bitmap
 Task
 Construct this picture
 Construct the title
 Place a Bitmap in the picture
Lesson: Create Picture
 Open the CAE-Client
 Point to Visualisation\Pictures\Training
 Create picture Plant
 Double click on Plant opens picture editor
 Parameterize the text object
Useful hint for 2 screen systems:

For a optimum screen usage we recommend:
Left Screen: CAE-client and picture editor
Right Monitor: SCADA-client
Lesson: Title
Basic Elements
("Graphical Primitives")
Line, circle, ..
Static text
Insert Graphic
Insert Building Block
Insert Image List

Pipe
(Topology)
Rotate Object
Adjust line
Foreground/
Background
Group objects
Align objects
Zoom
Curves in plant views Hint:

Always work on the grid
Lesson: Bitmap-Object
 Place Bitmap-Object in the picture
 Select Bitmap Basics\ScalaPicture.bmp
Lesson: Check your picture in the SCADA-Client
 The created picture can be displayed in the SCADA-Client immediately

 Start SCADA-Client
 Select File | Open | Display
Hint:
Thumbnail view selectable
Resources
What kinds of resources exist?
 Action scripts
 Colours
 Brushes
 Line style
 Fonts
 Image lists
Those resources are managed in the CAE Client Tree structure : Visualisation | Resources
Hierarchy Levels:
Hierarchy of Resource Levels Basics
Temp
Project
Variant 1, …
Priority
Ressourcenname
The level marked with an * is the current active and at the same time the level with highest priority
for editing the resource in the CAE client.
Editing of existing resources: Colors
Colour in level
Basics  dark blue
Projekt  light blue
Editing of existing resources: Pens
Changing of existing resources: Pens
Changing of existing resources: Typefaces
Elements
 Working with ELEMENTS
Button-Element
Combi-Element
Value-Element
Elements
 Elements are used for dialogue oriented parameterization of objects

 No script-programming needed
 High functionality
 Combi-Element
 Visualization von Symbolizes
 Building blocks
 Bitmaps
 Text objects
 Value-Element
 Representation of values
 Button-Element
 Display miscellaneous views (pictures, lists etc.)
Lesson: Use of Combi-Element and Value-Element
 Task
 Associate a combi-element with an existing process variable and parameterize a
symbol turnover by using a bitmap
 Associate a value-Element with an existing process variable
Lesson: Use of Combi-Element and Value-Element (1/4)
 Place combi-element within the picture
 Assign it to the signal

PPx.U1.READY.BIN
 Object type Bitmap

All process variables are parameterized in the object orientated

tool OPM
In our trainings equipment the
 image-structure (images) = text address (TA).
"." dot as level separator
text address (TA)

 Unique name of the process variable within
250 SCALA
PP1. U1. LOCAL_REMOTE. BIN
Text address (TA)
 Create new state-line (only if there is no line yet)
 Select state OFF
 Select bitmap Basics\Led\LedBlack_40x40.bmp
 Repeat this for the ON

state with
LedGreen_40x40.bmp
HINT:
Always work TOPDOWN
 Check the element with the SCADA-Client
 Operate switch D03
HINT:
After picture changes then SCADA-Client has to make a picture refresh (“View | Refresh pictures”)
 Task: Parameterization of a Value-elements
 Assign to process variable PPx.U1.U.VAL
 Afterwards activate the bar view within the value-Element
HINT:
Process variables can be visualized
in curves and lists by using Drag & Drop
 Task
 Construct an engine’s symbol with this appearance:
PP1.U1.GRID_OP.BIN = AUS PP1.U1.GRID_OP.BIN = EIN
 Create folder Training\Unit_State
 Create building block Training\Unit_State\Grid_Operation_On

 Construct green circle for the state “Grid operation”
 Copy the buildingblock to Training\Unit_State\Standstill

Color Light Gray
Hint:
Reference point should be in the middle of the object
Reference point definable : Right click on the Background, Tab “Display”:
complete it
 Task
 Expand an existing combi-element in such a manner that the succeeding symbolic
is visualized:
Display Standstill Turbine operation Grid operation
1 0 0
0 1 0
0 0 1
X X X
complete it
HINT:
Alias names improve the readability of formulae
complete it
 …and associated via formula
Lesson: Complete the Engines Display
 Task
 Expand the picture Training\Plant as follows:
Basics of Picture Construction
 Working with Building Blocks
What’s a BUILDING BLOCK, what’s a PICTURE and what is
the meaning of INHERITANCE ?
“Process-display” or
“Picture”
“Building Block”
Building blocks in the process view
Several building blocks within
another building block
“Feeder”
Building block “Circuit breaker”
What’s a BUILDING BLOCK, what’s a PICTURE and what is
the meaning of INHERITANCE ?
“Process-display” or
“Building block” “Picture”
Building Blocks within process view
Several building blocks within
another building block “feeder”
Building block “Circuit breaker”
Objects an Inheritance in the OPM
In the parameterizing tool for process variables (OPM) objects are used as well
The Object
Station (STA)
consists again of
2 Objects with the type
One object Feeder (01, 02)
Bus bar disconnector (SSTR)
consists of 3 Sub-objects
ML … Signal
BE … Command ON
BA … Command OFF
The object Feeder (01)

Consists of many subordinated objects
e.g.
2 times the object SSTR.
Lesson: Construct an unit building block
How can I use a single object multiple times ?
 Create a building block Training\Unit
 Move the existing objects of the picture Training\Plant to the new

building block Training\Unit
Pic: Training\Plant BB: Training\Unit Pic: Training\Plant BB: Training\Unit
 Place the building block symbol from the toolbar into the picture Plant
 In the property dialogue reference to Training\Unit
 The new building block is now shown in the picture
PP1.U1 + READY.BIN = PP1.U1.READY.BIN
Lesson: Duplicate the building block
 Task
 Duplicate the engines display as follows:
Lesson: Dynamic unit number
 Task
 The number of the units shall be generated dynamically
 Use the combi-element as text-object
Lesson : Hiding of information
 Task
 The unused state “Faulty” of the binary information
LOCAL_REMOTE.BIN shall be hided
Lesson : Adjusting of value-elements
 Task
 All value-elements shall be displayed with the same width
Lesson : Displaying of „Temperature Warning“
 Task
 The binary information Temperature Warning shall be added into the
buildingblock Unit
 Displaying of the combi-element only when information is active
 Displaying of the longtext (without PP and unit numbering)
Information in state OFF: Information in state ON::

Lesson : Displaying of „Unit Trip“
 Task
 The information Trip need to be added within the building block Unit
 Displaying of the combi-element only when information is active
 Displaying of the longtext (without PP and unit numbering)
 Centered text
 Hint: Use the typeface “tText10_Centered”

 Display “Temperature Warning” centered too
Information in state OFF: Information in state ON:
Lesson: Application of the Button-Element
 Task
 In the toolbar configure the power plant display as a button
 Introduction of the button-element

 Selection from the picture editors toolbar
General Settings
Selection of action
Action dependent settings
Hint:
MORE then one action can be assigned, e.g. picture and list
 Parameterize button-element in the display Training\Toolbar

 Display name
 Position Monitor (=Default, Display on the click screen in large representation)
 Caption text PP x
 Tooltip Power-Plant x Overview
 In addition a graphic has to be displayed on the button
 New graphics (BMP, JPG, GIF, WMF, EMF, DIP)

have to be imported into the CAE first
 Create folder \Bitmaps\Training
 Import existing bitmap from \sat\scala\usr\Bitmaps\PowerPlant.bmp
 Now select graphic file

for the button
Task: Opening the „Navigator“
 Simultaneously with the overview picture the Navigator shall be displayed
