The selection menus for:
•
CANopen inputs
•
Digital inputs / outputs
•
Constants (2) and (3)
•
Load spectrum counter
•
Comparators
are so-called dynamic menus. This means that the menus may be different
depending on the system configuration. Only the options defined in the system
configuration are displayed. For example, in a system configured with 3
CANopen inputs, only the inputs actually used by the program will be available
for selection (though the BROSA 0656 system supports more channels on the
software side). If there is no configuration available for the selected option, the
system will indicate this by the "Nothing to select" indicator.
Each parameter can also be assigned its own units of measure. For example,
in the block diagram above, the CANopen inputs are load sensors. They
therefore record signals in tonnes [t]. Depending on the application, these could
just as well be configured to output values in metres, kilonewtons or degrees.
Although the parameter values can be changed at any time by changing to the
machine setting input mode (see description below), the units of measure are
application-specific. They can therefore only be set in the phase of program
implementation.
