Structure
All the data of the WS cards used in a particular SIMATIC S5
system can be grouped together in a machine specific file with
the COM 720 software.
The data structure makes it possible to organise the machine
data, part programs and control configuration. The WS data for
the WS721/WS720 can be stored either on the hard disc of the
PG/PC or on floppy.
COM 720 is also very useful during commissioning, where it can
be used to view status of signals and axis positions.
With the COM 720 software it is possible to see which data files
are present.
Operation
The COM 720 software uses the window structure. The user is
guided by messages into the desired window.
Programming
An NC editor can be used to enter the part programs.
The editor is not only a means of entering the part programs, but
it also carries out a check to see that the entered values are
within tolerance.
Comments can also be inserted with the part program, as an aid
to understanding the program. Each program block can have a
comment line upto 65 characters in length.
Using COM 720 it is also possible to issue the data for MDI
mode. Teach-in is also possible with the COM 720.
