Setting up Hardware Configuration for Local Logic
Once a successful syntax check has occurred, you need to set up the hardware configuration
that allows the example program to be downloaded to the correct DSM314 module. Note
that this is not the typical order in which these steps are done. Most users first set up their
hardware configuration and then generate the programming statements. However, the
order in this example is reversed to better illustrate the link between hardware configuration
and the Local Logic program name in the DSM314 hardware configuration.
For details on how to perform steps 1 and 2, see the following:
•
VersaPro Configuration: Appendix H
•
Machine Edition Configuration: Chapter 4
1.
If you have not already done so, open the hardware configuration and configure a
CPU that supports PACSystems RX3i Release 2.8 (or later) or Series 90-30 Release
10.0 (or later) firmware and an appropriate power supply for your application. Add
a DSM314 to your rack configuration. This operation adds the DSM314 to the rack
and opens the DSM314 configuration screens, which allow you to customize the
DSM314 to your particular application.
Note:
For details concerning the DSM314 configuration settings, refer to chapter 4.
2.
On the “Settings” tab, set the “Local Logic Mode” parameter to Enabled and type
the name of the example program, “LLExample” in the “Local Logic Block Name
field. The resulting Hardware Configuration screens will be as shown in Figure 123.
Note:
This method of linking the DSM314 to a Local Logic program allows you to easily specify multiple
DSM314s that use the same Local Logic program. This example has only one DSM314. However,
if you have multiple DSM314s that need to run the same Local Logic program, simply indicate that
in the configuration for each DSM314 that needs to execute this program. This allows the
programmer to have one Local Logic source file for multiple DSM314s. Also note that this does
not preclude DSM314s from executing different programs.
