The graphical user interface
5.5
Hardware configuration view
The
Hardware configuration
window consists of the following sub-windows:
Tabs for switching between the
Hardware configuration
,
Logic editor
,
Network
modules
(if the project contains at least one network interface module),
Report
,
Diagnostics
and
Data Recoder
view.
Menu bar with the menus
Project, Device, Extras
Toolbar with icons for rapid access to menus that are often used
Elements
selection window: All devices (e.g. sensors, actuators etc.) that can be
connected to a MELSEC-WS safety controller are listed here. The devices can be
parameterized and renamed. In addition, user-defined devices can be created and
stored. In addition to the elements, EFI elements can also be connected. They are
dragged to the two EFI interfaces of the CPU module, provided that the CPU
module provides EFI interfaces.
Partial applications
selection window (see section 5.5.9).
Parking area
: The user can compile a selection of devices for a concrete
application and store them temporarily here.
Modules
selection window: All MELSEC-WS modules that can be combined into a
MELSEC-WS safety controller are listed here. The modules that cannot be selected
at the current configuration are grayed out. Modules that can be added to the
current configuration are identified by a green “+” symbol. The number of inputs,
outputs and EFI connections is displayed for each module.
From a drop down list under the module, the Revision (or function package) for the
respective module can be selected. The function package chosen defines the
minimum firmware version that must be used: Revision 2.XX requires at least
firmware version 2.00. See also Chapter 3.
Configuration area
: The entire hardware configuration of the MELSEC-WS safety
controller and of the connected devices is created here and represented graphically.
The individual modules and connected devices can be named, have a tag name
assigned and can be parameterized using the context menu of the devices.
Additionally, it is possible to export or import a configuration (hardware configuration
and logic) and – if the Setting and Monitoring Tool is connected to the system – to
change the password or to perform a software reset of the system via the context
menu of the CPU module.
Icons for the following functions are located on the left next to the positioned modules.
From top:
Switch view
,
Settings
and
Edit tag names
. When a connection to a Flexi
Link station is established, further functions are also available:
Log in
(change the
user group),
Verify
(read in and compare the configuration) and
Run
or
Stop
the CPU
module.
