Overview
(continued)
Detail comparison with ladder logic (LAD)
Comparison function for projects
It is possible to compare and, if necessary, match the compo-
nents of different projects.
It is therefore possible to perform a CPU-based comparison be-
tween the objects of a project.
An overview of the differences between objects is displayed.
Objects with differences can be matched.
If necessary, to a highly detailed degree: Objects can be
matched right down to data level also for individual data.
Advantages for practical working with SIMOTION:
•
Online/offline comparisons allow the target device and project
to be matched
•
Offline/offline comparisons make it possible to merge pro-
grams
•
Detailed differences between data can be identified in the
detailed comparison
•
Data missing from the engineering project are easy to restore
if the source data are stored in the target system.

Benefits
•
Numerous easy-to-use and expressive diagnostic tools are
fully integrated in SCOUT
•
Extremely useful support with optimizing and troubleshooting
•
All information can be printed in the form displayed on the
screen for documentation purposes
•
Axis control panel for commissioning and optimizing the axes
without the need for an application program
•
Path control panel for commissioning and optimizing
kinematics without the need for a user program
•
Automatic controller optimization for fast commissioning
•
Comprehensive, integrated comparison functions for the ST,
MCC and LAD/FBD languages enable differences to be iden-
tified between projects or between the current project and the
device.
