unTree 9.3.0
|
The synoptic can be created from the WinCC OA Graphical Editor (Gedi):
1.) Start the Gedi.
2.) To create a new panel.
1.) Drag/drop widgets (refer Appendix A: Widget convention for more detail) from the UN_OBJECTS catalogue of the installed_components folder (Figure 15, and Figure 98).
2.) Assign it to a device (Figure 15): systemName:Alias_of_the_device, e.g.: qscc_p8_1:ATVAC_Q180_Analog1. The device name can be assigned later by clicking on the ReferenceEditor: Figure 16 or entering directly the name of the device: Figure 17.
3.) Drag and drop lines of fluid, arrows and static objects respectively from the catalogue UN_LINES, UN_ARROWS and UN_STATICS (Figure 15). These objects can be resized if necessary.
4.) Any JPEG, GIF, BMP, XPM and WMF (EMF) picture format can be used, the files must be in the picture folder of the project or of the project paths. The XPM, WMF (EMF) can be set as shared.
5.) If it is necessary, one has access to the PVSS graphical elements to its event scripts and to the panel event scripts. Library files can be created; library function call can be added. The new library must be added in the config file manually.
The WindowTree is created and configured during the installation. New tree view can be created if needed, however they will not be accessible via the WindowTree icon. New tree view can be created from the Tree Management of the Configuration menu (Figure 1 and Figure 18).
Hierarchy, folder, as well as panel, plot and page can be deleted from the PVSS database (Figure 19) from the Manage Tree Deletion button accessible from the UNICOS System DPs (Figure 18).
The WindowTree configuration tool (Figure 20) is based on the Windows Internet Explorer:
To populate the WindowTree:
1.) Create a new folder: from the hierarchy top menu or via mouse right click on the right side either into the WindowTree (Figure 21), either a given folder (Figure 22) or either in a given panel (Figure 23).
2.) Create a new panel (an empty panel will be physically created on the disk) or add an existing panel (already created on the disk): from the hierarchy top menu or via mouse right click on the right side either into the WindowTree (Figure 21), either a given folder (Figure 22) or either in a given panel (Figure 23).
3.) A folder can be linked to a panel: from the panel top menu, PVSS $-parameter (Figure 24) can be entered at this time.
4.) A panel can be unlinked: from the panel top menu (Figure 23).
5.) If a folder or a panel is copied: the copy goes to the clipboard. It can be pasted afterwards anywhere in the hierarchy. All its children and the children of its children are also copied with the configuration. If the current folder or panel is modified afterwards, the modification is not propagated to all the copied instances.
A panel of the WindowTree can be configured:
6.) PVSS $-parameter (Figure 24) can be given to each child panel:
7.) The horizontal navigation (Figure 27): reference to a node of the WindowTree, panel, plot or page can be configured for each navigation button. The horizontal navigation can be saved into the WindowTree in order to be able to make reference on it from another place of the WindowTree. Note: The navigation configuration can be saved into the WindowTree. A panel can have a link to a another panel configured in the WindowTree. For instance, this allows to have contextual button linked to the same panel but with different dollar parameter for each panel in the WindowTree. A typical example is the cell of the sector where a unique panel with dollar paramters is used to show the content of the cell, each cell of a sector can be linked to the same panel (to another position into the WindowTree) but with different dollar parameters. The contains is that each link must be to a panel included into the WindowTree.
The configuration of the panel can be modified (Figure 25):
To test the WindowTree:
8.) Open the panel via the WindowTree (Figure 26) from the unicosHMI panel, the contextual button of the panel are shown in the contextual area and the panel is shown in the central area.
9.) Test the behaviour of the devices from the panel with the contextual button of the device or the faceplate.
10.) Test the navigation by click on the panel buttons in the contextual area (Figure 28).
The TrendTree configuration tool (Figure 29) is based on the Windows Internet Explorer:
The behaviour is similar to the one of the WindowTree.
The TrendTree, the Predefined_Trends and User_DefinedTrends folder are created and configured during the installation,. New tree view can be created if needed, however they will not be accessible via the TrendTree icon. New tree view can be created from the UNICOS System DPs of the Configuration menu, Figure 1 and Figure 18). To populate the TrendTree:
1.) Create a new folder from the hierarchy top menu or via mouse right click on the right side either into the TrendTree (Figure 30), either a given folder (Figure 31), either a given plot (Figure 32) or either in a given page (Figure 33).
2.) Create a new plot or a new page (an empty plot or an empty page will be created) or add an existing plot or page (a plot or page already configured) from the hierarchy top menu or via mouse right click on the right side either into the TrendTree (Figure 30), either a given folder (Figure 31), either a given plot (Figure 32) or either in a given page (Figure 33).
3.) A folder can be linked to a plot/page: from the plot/page top menu. The folder name is renamed to the plot/page title.
4.) A plot/page can be unlinked: from the plot/page top menu (Figure 32 and Figure 33).
5.) If a folder, a plot or a page is copied: the copy goes to the clipboard. It can be pasted afterwards anywhere in the hierarchy. All its children and the children of its children are also copied with the configuration. If the current folder, plot or page is modified afterwards, the modification is not propagated to all the copied instances.
A plot and a page of the TrendTree can be configured:
6.) plot configuration (Figure 32), page configuration (Figure 33):
7.) The horizontal navigation (Figure 34): panel, plot or page can be configured for each navigation button.
The configuration of the plot/page can be modified (Figure 32 and Figure 33):
8.) Configure the plot (Figure 32). Select the device data, the colour, range, visibility, curve type and scale visibility. Save the configuration by a click on the apply button. The selection of the device (DP element) can be done either via the default PVSS DP selector (Figure 35) or the UNICOS device selector (Figure 36). The setup is done by a click on the Set PVSS DP Selector/Set UNICOS DP Selector button.
9.) Configure the page (Figure 33): Add/remove plot in a page, select the plot to be in the page by clicking on the OK button (Figure 37), a click on the None button will empty the plot cell of the page. A plot can also be viewed, copied, edited and created. Save the configuration by a click on the apply button.
To test the TrendTree:
1.) Open the panel via the TrendTree (Figure 26) from the unicosHMI panel), the contextual button of the panel are shown in the contextual area and the panel is shown in the central area.
2.) Open the page and plot via the TrendTree (Figure 38) from the unicosHMI panel (Figure 39 and Figure 40), the contextual button of the plot and page are shown in the contextual area and the plot or page is shown in the central area (Figure 39 and Figure 40).
For each plot there is a menu: stop/start the trend plot, change the time scale (pre-defined time scale are given: 10 minutes, 1 hour, 8 hours, 1 day, 8 days), zoom in/out the time and Y axis (the plot must be stopped), save the current settings (password protected), export to a csv file, print, open the plot configuration panel, choose the logarithmic/standard trend type, zoom the plot. The curve of a plot can be hidden or set to visible: click on the check box below the trend plot. Tooltip text is displayed on the description of the plot. The time printed below the trend plot is the time of the last refreshed data of the curve.
For the page, there is a menu: change the time scale of all the plots of the page (pre-defined time scale are given: 10 minutes, 1 hour, 8 hours, 1 day, 8 days), zoom in/out the time and Y axis of all the plots of the page (only on the plots of the page that are stopped), save the current settings of all the plots of the page (password protected), export to a csv file all the data of all the plots of the page, print, and open the page configuration panel.
The list of device DPE to be trended in a plot and the list of device DPE to be trended in the faceplate can be configured per device type via the device trend configuration panel (Figure 1 and Figure 41).
The complete or part of the TrendTree and WindowTree can be exported (Figure 82) into as ASCII file in the xml format by selecting a tree or a node in the tree. The current PVSS system is replaced by the keyword "#local" and all the instances of the "&" character are replaced by the "@" character. Note: The "&" is not allowed in an XML file. One can also export a complete tree without the tree definition (export without tree definition check box) in order to import later on the complete tree into another tree or into a node.
The complete or part of the TrendTree and WindowTree can be imported into a running DS (Figure 1, Figure 83 and Figure 84). The keyword "#local" will be replaced by the PVSS system name in which is imported the file, any "@" character are replaced by the "&" character. The WARNING (e.g.: same plot but with different configuration, part of a tree) can be imported by selecting the Force Import check box. Part of a tree can be imported into a position in a tree by selecting the Force Import and Import into selected position check boxes and selecting a node in a tree.
