- Step 1: Provide the path to the SCY file that is going
to be parsed and enter the System Prefix (each system has its own prefix
defined in the naming
convention - e.g. Tile, Lar). Each of the variables
in the SCY file is prefixed with this prefix.
If the model definition (metadata) for this particular system already
exists then you will receive information that update mode is active.
After providing that information one can proceed with the reading of
the SCY file. In case of any errors proper notification should be displayed.
If the process terminated without errors then the table in the middle
section of the panel should become populated with some data.
- Step 2: The middle section of the panel is called
"Model Definition Overview". It allows to view the variables that had
been read in from the SCY file. If the update mode is active it will
also show how the data from the SCY file is related to the existing model.
- Step 3: It is necessary to provide some data about
the system that is not contained within the SCY file. The bottom part
of the panel is devoted to this action. One need to provide data about
the status/control bits that are used by the plant and the loops as well
as the descriptions for the loop warnings and alarms. All that data should
be contained in the Technical Documentation that is provided by TS/CV.
- Step 4: Commiting the changes. After pressing the
button you will be presented with a panel in which you can specify the
IP address for the PLC. The Poll Group and the ModBus Driver will be
configured automatically.
NOTE: A button will appear at the bottom of the panel in case that
file SCY is a file with references to the areas. This button allows
to add the areas to the system. See Fig2.
