Hint
Design capture
Obviously we would not need an Input and an Output module for our small
example. This serves only to demonstrate the functions of the PLC
manager.
You may have realized that there is no cross-reference at this time. However, as we
have not yet loaded the PLC main module, cross-referencing is not yet possible.
Now we have to load two digital outputs for the control of the valves -Q1 and –Q2.
Place them but at this time with a double click with the left mouse button.
This allows you to skip the database selection dialog (which is not needed here) and
to make the channel allocation directly. (If you do accidentally activate the
database, simply exit it and this will take you to the assignment menu). Assign the
outputs for –Q1 or –Q2 to the digital output 'Digital Output SM 322-1BH00
16x24V DC' (Function text: '!Table control'). Enter the PLC text for both valves
-Q1 and -Q2 as: 'Table up' and 'Table down’.
Tip
A double click when loading the PLC main module takes you directly to the
assignment of this symbol to a PLC module the PLC manager is already
controlling. The rule is: every selection in the database menu creates a new
PLC module in the 'PLC selection', so whenever you double click or quit out
of the database selection window, the assignment menu will always
appear. You can still delete any symbol with the 'Delete' command.
The database dialog is not necessary because we have already set the parameters
by inserting the individual PLC connection. Now you only need to assign the symbol
to a PLC module controlled by the 'PLC selection'. Main modules which have not
yet been assigned are marked with a '*'. These are 'virtual' PLC modules.
Position the Output Unit
Now go back to page 3 and load the symbol 'Digital Output SM 322-1BH00
16x24V DC' from the library 'EXAMPLE'. Position the symbol with a double
click. The 'PLC selection' dialog opens up again.
