Creating a group:
1. Creating a group module
Creating a unique function group
The library window contains an element for a new group. To add a new group, draw the symbol
“
New group
“
from the library, and insert it in the work surface of the function chart. The
created group does not have an input-output interface.
2. Creating a function group from the selection
The size of the group is determined with the cursor:
Use the left mouse button to position the cursor in the upper left corner of the group frame and
press and hold the button.
Afterwards, with the left mouse button pressed, drag the mouse pointer in thedsired lower edge of
the group section.
Click on the selection with the right mouse button, and create a new group. This group is inserted
in the group frame, and whose tab “Group” an
d be opened for editing.
The block types that cannot be included in a group are ffiltered. An info display shows the
filteredblocks.
3. Adding function blocks to the group
The group’s work surface can either be selected with a double click in the group frame or via the
group sheet of a browser tree. In this section, function blocks can be inserted, shifted or deleted. If
the group has not been deactivated, the blocks are automatically accepted in the group. If the
function blocks are accepted, they also show the function block number. As long as the group
block is activated, function modules from the section of the group frame can be added or deleted.
Please note:
•
Function blocks cannot be added by shifting the group block. The modules must be shifted
into the group sheet.
•
In the group, only logic modules and monitoring modules can be accepted.
•
Input and output modules and preset elements, e. g., signal lists, analogous modules or
encoder modules are not permitted.
•
In case of modules with consisting connections, it may happen that a connection protrudes
over the group frame. This is permitted under no circumstances, and the connection is
deleted automatically.
