Flexi Line
Configure the Flexi Line process image as described in section 8.2.2.
Plan the Flexi Line process image carefully. If you change the process image
subsequently, then you must transfer it again to each of the individual stations in the
Flexi Line system.
On the Flexi Line toolbar click the
Export Flexi Line definition
button and export
the Flexi Line definition.
Configure the logic for the station as described in section 5.6 and in section 8.3.2.
Setting-up the other stations in Setting and Monitoring Tool
Configure the hardware for the remaining Flexi Line stations in the same way as for
the first station.
Once the hardware configuration for a station is complete, drag the
Flexi Line
element from the list box for the elements to the CPU module. A pop-up window
opens.
In this window click the name of the file with the Flexi Line definition saved pre-
viously to import it.
Or:
Click on
Use existing Flexi Line definition
. A file selection dialog opens. Select
the desired file and click on
Open
.
Then configure the logic for the station.
Commissioning of the Flexi Line system
Connect the individual Flexi Line stations as described in the user’s manuals
(hardware).
Place in operation each individual station as a standalone system. The stations
change to the
Teach required
status and the LINE LED flashes
Green
at 2 Hz.
Once all stations are in the
Teach required
status, change to the
Flexi Line
view
while Setting and Monitoring Tool is connected to any station.
Click the
Teach
button on the toolbar to place Flexi Line in operation. The topology
of the system is then checked and confirmed and the Flexi Line system is started.
8.3.2
Conversion of a Flexi Line system
New stations can be added to an existing Flexi Line system if these systems have a
Flexi Line definition that matches the existing system. This action is also possible
while the existing system is in operation. As soon as the stations in the system
detect the addition, they change to the Teaching required status and the LINE LED
flashes
Green
at 2 Hz.
If one or more stations are removed from a correctly configure Flexi Line system
while it is switched off, after it is switched on again this system changes to the
Teaching required status and the LINE LED flashes
Green
at 2 Hz.
If one or more stations are removed from a Flexi Line system while it is in operation,
then the neighboring stations signal a Flexi Line error state, i.e. the LINE LED
flashes
Red
at 1 Hz. The error state can be reset in this case with a teaching
process.
If a station that is no longer required is bypassed while the system is in operation,
this action will result in a Flexi Line error. In this case the system cannot be reset by
teaching, instead it must be switched off and on again. After switching on the system
changes to the Teaching required status and the LINE LED flashes
Green
at 2
Hz.
