Overview
(continued)
Standard blocks – two examples:
Example 1: Axis function block:
The standard "axis function block" covers a range of
requirements that concern the activation of axis technology
objects and simplifies programming, commissioning and testing
of each axis object due to its central interface. The integrated
HTML control panel enables the axes controlled by the axis
function block to be tested easily – without any HMI or
engineering system.
Example 2: Message handling:
The core tasks of the generic basic module "Error message
handling" include the chronological collection of system, TO,
drive, I/O and user messages and their conditioning for display
on the operator panel – or their direct display via a web browser.
The specific diagnostic pages are a huge advantage during
initial commissioning, but particularly in the event of a fault or
during servicing, because fault states can be diagnosed without
the need for an engineering system and standstill times can be
minimized.
Modular machine functions
The project generator also supports the modularization of
machine functions in accordance with the specification of
international standard ISA-88. The module structure is defined in
ISA-88. This ensures a simple and uniform structure for
machines. Basic, technology and application modules are
combined to implement clearly comprehensible modularization
for machines using functional units.
