Driver configuration
Select “Station” and add a new station pressing
“ADD” .
1. Enter source path of the LogicLab project
located on the PC used for development. This
allows to import variables, execute Movicon
in preview mode on own PC, including
communication with SoftPLC, and perform
complete test. Next step is to indicate IP
address of the target HMI/PC (only after
completing development it will be necessary
to enter localhost address 127.0.0.1 to enable
communication of Movicon project with the
softPLC of the panel itself.
2. This field is self-compiling after entering path as described on previous point. If using an HMI/PL500,
do not modify the self-compiling field; if using a Panel PC (TD750, TD850 etc…) enter the path used
for download of the LogicLab project (default
D:\LLExec\ NameMyProjectLogicLab.sym.xml
).
3. If Movicon project will be executed on the HMI/PC where the softPLC is also installed, then the IP
address will be
127.0.0.1
. If it will be executed on a different HMI/PC, then enter the IP address of the
softPLC.
4. From the section
“General”
assign a name to the station, ex.
“PLC”
.
Press OK to save settings and exit.
Now it is possible to import the LogicLab
project variabiles on Movicon.
Right click on “SoftPLC Pixsys” and select “Import
PLC database” .
Press “Read from PLC project” , the list of all
available variables will be provided.
Select variables to be imported and press
“Import” .
NB : If importing an array variable, it will be visualized as a structure carrying the array name.
Single array members will be accessible individually with following syntax
NameMyArray:NameMyArray
_X
where
X
is the array index (starting from 0).
Now variables are available on the Movicon project. If it is necessary to import new variables (to modify
LogicLab project), repeat only the reading and import variables procedure.
