SMX Programming Manual for the SMX Module - OEM Automatic AB

PLC input signal list
Signal lines entering into the PLC, represented in form of a table. In SafePLC the
PLC inPorts can be designated by the user. They have an unambiguous number and
must be assigned to the inPorts of a function block.
PLC output signal list
Signal lines leaving the PLC, represented in form of a table. In SafePLC these
outPorts can be designated by the user and, just like the inPorts, have an
unambiguous identification number.
Instruction list (IL)
Assembler-like programming language that can be loaded into a central SMX
module. The duty of SafePLC is the generation of an instruction list based on defined
function blocks, as well as their attributes and linkages.
Compilation
Compilation and verification of the function plan created in SafePLC and the
associated parameters.
Function block group
Classification of function blocks according to their positioning ability in the logic
diagram (inPort, outPort, logic).
Function block types
More detailed identification of function blocks within a group. (e.g. "Emergency Stop")
Message window
Output window with several lines, embedded in a Windows Toolbar element. This
display window is used for the output of errors, warnings and information from the
program to the user. The message window can be switched on and off.
Info display
Delayed display of information about a function block, following the Windows Tool Tip
mechanism. The mouse pointer must be dragged across an object to display this
information.
Configuration
Configuration is the generic term for a monitoring program and the associated
parameter for permissible deviations or minimum and maximum values. In this
context it is important to note that a monitoring program always comes with further
data, the program can refer to.
