Overview
The Drive Control Chart (DCC) option packages for SIMOTION
and SINAMICS extend the range of tools provided in SIMOTION
SCOUT for easy graphical configuring of technology functions
using predefined function blocks.
Multi-instance function blocks are selected from a predefined
library and graphically interconnected using drag and drop. The
function block library comprises of a large number of control,
calculation and logic blocks as well as extensive open-loop and
closed-loop control functions. Numerous calculation functions,
such as summation, division and minimum/maximum evaluation
are available for monitoring and evaluating numeric variables.
Drive Control Chart (DCC) does not limit the number of functions
that can be used.
Note: DCC is not available for SCOUT TIA (SIMOTION in the TIA
Portal and its drives).
