Starting the process
Introduction
To enable operator control and monitoring of all functions you have configured, start the dosing
process.
Dosing is started using the SFC. You start the SFC directly in process mode without having
to change back to SIMATIC Manager.
There are two ways to start the process:
● Using the block icon "..../RMT1/SFC_RMT1".
● Using a button in the button set.
Using the block icon
1. Click the block icon "..../RMT1/SFC_RMT1".
The corresponding faceplate opens.
2. Click "Start".
The "SFC Operation" dialog box opens.
3. Click "OK".
The sequential control system starts and you can follow the process in your process picture.
4. Double-click a step in the SFC to view additional details about the current status of the SFC.
