System overview
Library administrator
To facilitate programming, MotionCenter makes it possible to organize objects that
are not related to projects into libraries, such as modules, declarations and visualiza-
tions. For this purpose a library administrator is available for integrating and viewing
of libraries.
3.9.2
ViEditor
ViEditor is a graphic editor for creating visualization applications for a MotionOne au-
tomation system.
Using this editor, the user interfaces for the machine operation can be created in con-
junction with an IEC project. The target system is a MotionOne control with stationary
panels and/or with mobile handheld operating devices.
When creating operating masks, the ready-made visualization applications (alarm
masks, file explorer, IO monitor, variable monitor, oscilloscope,...) as well as graphi-
cal elements (widgets) can be used for the individual mask design.
Depending on the development system installed on your computer, the visualization
is completely created in a tool suite and executable program code is generated which
can be loaded directly onto the control from the tool. Additionally, ViEditor can run a
simulation of the visualization application on your computer.
Supported visualization and development systems
ViEditor supports the creation of visualization applications on the following visualiza-
tion and development systems:
•
Visualization ViApp (JAVA based): Configuring and programming of masks.
•
Visualization TeachView (JAVA based). The masks can be enhanced by includ-
ing user specified masks.
For further information see the online help of ViEditor.
3.9.3
DriveManager
DriveManager is used for configuration, parameterization, and diagnosis of drives.
The tool offers the following options:
•
Configuration and parameterization of SO CM-x for the MotionOne system.
•
Diagnosis of SO CM-x and movement recordings via software oscilloscope.
•
Device maintenance (firmware update, administration of parameter sets, cloning
of devices, ...).
For further information see the online help of DriveManager.
3.9.4
MotionCenter Scope
MotionCenterScope serves to monitor, record and visualize the values of arbitrary
variables in software components. These can be firmware components or application
programs (TeachTalk- or IEC-applications). Unlike the debugger, it does not require
the program sequence to be interrupted. Tables, diagrams and 3D-views enable vi-
sualization of the recorded variable values.
The tool has the following properties:
•
Variables and arrays in firmware components and teachtalk- and/or IECpro-
grams can be recorded. The variables must be registered with the sampler.
•
Variables can be activated or deactivated from scope. Only activated variables
are recorded.
•
Events can be used to notify a specific status in the target program.
•
Related events can be grouped into classes. Every event is part of a class.
•
The actual recording start can be determined via a trigger. The trigger can refer
to a variables’ value and/or a specific event. Pre- as well as posttriggering is pos-
sible.
•
Representation of the collected data in different diagrams and views: variable
monitor, event monitor, X-t chart, X-Y chart, 3D-view.
Information
Program execution may be slightly delayed while recording with data with
MotionCenter Scope.
For further information see the online help of MotionCenter Scope.
