Validation on demand
To check the validity of an application configuration, click the 'Validate
Configuration' icon in the toolbar. ACT will check the application configuration for
formal correctness. Found problems are qualified in:
•
Warnings, marked by a yellow warning icon
•
Example: A variable connected to an output signal that is not connected.
•
Example: If the user connects output from higher execution order
function to inputs of lower execution order function.
•
Errors, marked by a red circle with a cross
•
Example: A mandatory input signal that is not connected.
Warnings will not prevent writing to the IED. Errors have to be corrected before
writing the application configuration to the IED. An application configuration can
be saved and ACT can be closed with open errors, but not written to the IED, see
These problems are listed in the
Output View
under the Tab
Application
Configuration
. A double-click in the error or warning row will navigate to the
MainApplication>Page>Area where the problems are identified.

ACT: Validation on demand
Validation when writing to the IED
When writing the application configuration to the IED an automatic validation is
performed. The validation is the same as the manually demanded validation. Errors
will abort the writing.
