PCS 7/APACS+ OS Symbols and Faceplates for V6.1 A5E00595267-01 1-1

1 Common HMI Elements

1.1 Symbols Each tag structure and faceplate has an associated symbol. You can place these symbols on your process graphics to represent a control object. At runtime, when you click on the symbol, the associated faceplate is displayed and tied to the corresponding instance of the APACS+ object.

The PCS 7/APACS+ Option symbols are shown in the picture below:

Common HMI Elements

1-2 PCS 7/APACS+ OS Symbols and Faceplates for V6.1 A5E00595267-01

The APACS+ symbols are provided on the picture "@@APACSTypicals.pdl". PCS 7/APACS+ DBA uses these symbols as shown to create instances associated with the type found in the APACS+ controller. The symbols on this picture can be considered "master" symbols. These symbols use a naming convention of @BlockName/1. When DBA creates an instance of this symbol on a picture, the symbol name is set equal to the tagname of the APACS+ tag. DBA manages these symbol names and they should not be edited.

Most blocks have several symbols, each with differing sizes and amount of information. The default symbol selected by DBA is the one named @BlockName/1. Alternate symbols can be selected by DBA by modifying the "Symbol Name” property for the block in DBA (for example, @BlockName/2).

When a symbol is copied or cut and then pasted onto the same picture or another picture, the Graphics Designer changes the name of the symbol. For example, @LOOP_A becomes LOOP_A1; if another instance is pasted, the name becomes LOOP_A2. It is important that the symbol names of symbol instances created by DBA not be changed. DBA manages the creation and deletion of the symbol instances that it creates. If you cut and paste a symbol instance onto the same picture created by DBA, the next time DBA runs it adds another instance of this symbol. Instead, if you need to move a symbol, drag and drop it to ensure that the name does not change.

Common HMI Elements


1.2 Analog Input Dialog Box This dialog box appears if you click a field that has a floating point value that can be changed. Clicking the OK button logs the change in the PCS 7 operator's log.

Key Description

1 Step controls

2 Minimum permissible value

3 Maximum permissible value

4 Analog value

5 Slider control of analog value

6 Keypad for entering values

7 Confirmation button, logs change in operator's log

File: @Common_AnalogInput.PDL

Common HMI Elements


1.3 Discrete Input Dialog Box A discrete input dialog box appears if you click a field with a discrete value. The box includes an OK button for confirmation. Clicking it confirms the selection and records a change in the PCS 7 operator’s Log.

The following discrete input dialog box, used in loop controls, selects Manual or Auto.

File: @Common_DiscreteInput.PDL

1.4 Time Input Dialog Box If you click a field with time values, a time input dialog box appears. Clicking the OK button records changes in the PCS 7 operator’s Log.

File: @Common_TimeInput.PDL

Common HMI Elements


1.5 Confirmation Dialog Box If you initiate a change that requires confirmation, such as clicking the Open button on a valve faceplate, a confirmation dialog box appears. Clicking on the OK button records changes in the PCS 7 operator’s Log.

File: @Common_ConfirmationBox.PDL

1.6 Operator Change Confirmation DBA adds a ConfirmChange extended attribute for each APACS+ function block instance (See the DBA help file for details). This controls whether operator actions require a confirmation step or not.

If ConfirmChange is FALSE (its default value) then any type of discrete operator change (for example, Auto/Manual, Start Motor, Open Valve, etc.) is immediately made without further confirmation requirements.

If ConfirmChange is TRUE, then any type of discrete operator change displays either the Discrete Input Dialog box or a Confirmation box, and requires the operator to select and/or confirm the request. Similarly, any floating-point operator change can only be made via the Analog Input Dialog, and confirmed with its OK button.

In either case, an entry in the operator’s log is always made for any operation that involves a write to the controller.

In addition, if ConfirmChange is FALSE, any faceplate bargraph that is editable by the user also includes a set of four quick-change buttons to make immediate step changes to the bargraph value. These make step changes of either -5%, -1%, 1%, or 5% of configured span. The quick change buttons are not displayed if ConfirmChange is TRUE.

1.9 Common Faceplate Elements The @CommonElements.pdl file contains a generic discrete I/O button and a generic analog I/O edit field. These objects can be manually copied to any user graphic. If the tag to be edited is part of a tag structure, then standard PCS 7 user authorization will be enforced. If the tag to be edited is a single tag (not part of a tag structure), no PCS 7 user authorization will be enforced since a single tag can not be assigned to a process area for user authorization enforcement.

At runtime, the discrete I/O button provides the ability to edit any existing BOOL type tag. All changes to the BOOL tag are recorded in the WinCC operator’s log. The tag, along with “On” and “Off” messages, and “On” and “Off” button text are configured from the object properties dialog in Graphics Designer.

At runtime, the analog I/O field provides the ability to edit any existing analog tag. All changes to the analog tag are recorded in the WinCC operator’s log. The tag, along with range limits and display format are configured from the object properties dialog in Graphics Designer.

The @CommonElements.pdl file also contains an example of a button that allows a trend group created with the PCS 7 Online Trend Configuration Utility to be opened up directly by name instead of selecting it from a list. The trend group name and the monitor to display the trend group on are configurable. Use the properties dialog box to configure the Mouse Action for the object.

1.10 Redundant Server Architecture In a redundant server architecture, client nodes connect to the appropriate server based on the health of each server and the health of the network connection between the client and each server.

The health of any APACS+ controller, and the health of the server’s connection to any APACS+ controller are not factors in determining which server a given client will connect to.

Information about the health of APACS+ controllers is displayed on the Lifebeat monitoring page.

Common HMI Elements


1.11 APACS+ Source Address The APACS+ source address is displayed in the lower right hand corner of the standard view for each block type (in this case HMI_TEST2_CSIM.INC1.SL).

Common HMI Elements


1.12 Synchronization and Persistence of HMI Tag Values A feature of the PCS 7 HMI is the ability to synchronize and persist arbitrary internal WinCC tag values.

The synchronization feature will guarantee that internal tag values remain consistent between redundant server partners in a redundant OS server architecture.

The persistence feature will preserve tag values through a restart of the WinCC runtime, or a reboot of the OS server. Without this feature, internal tag values are always initialized to their configured “start value”. This feature can be used on single station nodes, single OS server nodes, or redundant OS server nodes.

The synchronization and persistence features are not required for external tag values since those tag values are already persisted in the controller.

The synchronization and persistence configuration is stored in a CSV file (SyncPersistTags.csv) in the RuntimeFramework directory in the WinCC project directory.

CSV File Format The CSV file format allows blank lines and comment lines which are designated by a leading semicolon (;). The CSV file must have a header with a leading ":TAG" (case does not matter) and at least another column with PERSIST or SYNC (case does not matter). If the option column is missing, then none of the tags will be processed for that option. For example, if the PERSIST column exists, but the SYNC column does NOT, then the tags will only be processed for PERSIST. The TAG column should contain the full WinCC tagname. The option columns should have the value of "0", "f", or "false" (case does not matter) to NOT ENABLE this option for that tag. Any other value including a blank will ENABLE the option for that tag.

Common HMI Elements


Here is an example:

; This is a comment

: Tag , EXTRA, PERSIST, SYNC, EXTRA, EXTRA

Tag1_PS

Tag2_PS , , 1, 10

Tag3_PS , , yes, -1

Tag4_P , , True, 0

Tag5_P,,attr1=55:attr2=100,F

Tag6_P,,t,FALSE,,

Tag7_P , , , False

Tag8_S,,f,,,,

Tag9_S,,f,+

Tag10_S,,f,aaaaa=bbb,,,

Tag11_S , , f

; another comment

; Define columns in different order in same file

: Tag , SYNC, EXTRA, EXTRA

Tag20_S

Tag21_S,+,sss,wwww

Tag22_S , 1

In this example, all the tags with a suffix of _P will only be added to the PERSIST list, _S will only be added to the SYNC list, and _PS will be added to both. This file shows the defaulted TRUE for blank or missing option columns.

An option column can also contain a name/value series which will be further processed to add additional attributes to the output XML Node. The format should be as follows:

attrname1=attrvalue1:attrname2=attrvalue2

Notice that an option column value can contain one or more name/value pairs separated by a colon (:).

Common HMI Elements


The previous example generates the following XML file, assuming the PERSIST and SYNC configurations were empty to start with:

<AppHost>

<PlugIn Name="CustomSyncPersistInjector" ProgID="CustomSyncPersistPlugIn.PlugIn" Enabled="-1" File="Test.csv" Status="LOADED"/>

<PlugIn Name="SyncAgent" ProgID="SyncAgent.EventSync" Enabled="0" Status="LOADED">

<Sync Na="DMAdapter.Tag1_PS" ASONa="??"/>



<Sync Na="DMAdapter.Tag8_S" ASONa="??"/>


<Sync Na="DMAdapter.Tag10_S" ASONa="??" aaaaa="bbb"/>





</PlugIn>

<PlugIn Name="PersistAgent" ProgID="PersistAgent.EventPersist" Enabled="0" Status="LOADED">

<Persist Na="DMAdapter.Tag1_PS" ASONa="??"/>



<Persist Na="DMAdapter.Tag4_P" ASONa="??"/>

<Persist Na="DMAdapter.Tag5_P" ASONa="??" attr1="55" attr2="100"/>



</PlugIn>

</AppHost>

The 'ASONa' attribute is '??', which allows for later enhancements that may need to track which object created the item. It is not currently used.

• Clicking any check box produces a discrete input confirmation box, if the ConfirmChange attribute for this block is TRUE.

• Clicking any of the edit boxes produces an analog input edit box. Range limits (if configured) are enforced by the WinCC Data Manager.

• In the case of the APACS+ ported blocks running in the PCS 7 OS, all of the user editable fields are available and enabled. In the case of the APACS+ blocks running in an ACM or CCM, the function block will have at most four of twelve alarm types configured. The fields for each unused alarm type are hidden in the user interface. This will happen automatically because the PCS 7 OS attribute of the field is not mapped to the ACM or CCM.

2.6 SINGLE_LOOP_AFB Trend View The trend view is the standard view for displaying trends for the function block. For the SINGLE_LOOP_AFB function block the trend view displays the process value (PV), setpoint (SP), and output value (VL). Only one trend window is needed for each function block type. A script assigns proper tags to the trend control at runtime.

The standard PCS 7 OS trend view is available for use with APACS+ function blocks through normal PCS 7 OS procedures and configuration.

Interlocks View The Interlocks view displays permit status and description, and interlock status and descriptions. It also allows the user to place the block into and out of override mode. Note that this faceplate view is not specific to the VALVE_A_AFB function block. Every function block that implements multiple interlock inputs references this .PDL file.

The Interlocks view actually has 11 interlock status indicators. The VALVE_A and VALVE_A_ALM blocks only have 10 interlock inputs, so the 11th indicator is hidden in these cases. The MOTOR_A and MOTOR_A_ALM blocks, which have 11 interlock inputs, will display all 11 indicators.

Interlock indicators are displayed for all interlock inputs that have a non-blank interlock description. Unused or unconfigured interlocks should be configured with a blank interlock description in 4-mation. The faceplate will not display indicators for these unused interlocks.

Interlocks Operation and Controls • The Override button allows the operator to put the block into override. This

button is only enabled when the function block is not in override.

• The Clear Override button allows the operator to take the block out of override. This button is only enabled when the function block is in override.

Other Faceplates


• Status Indicators (12): In each case, the description is displayed for the appropriate input. If the input is TRUE (1) the text is black on a green background. If the input is FALSE (0) the text is white on a red background. If the description for an interlock is NULL, its Status indicator will be blank (same as gray background) regardless of TRUE or FALSE value. This generally means that this interlock is not in use and has a default value of TRUE. However, there is the possibility that an interlock is in use but has no description configured in the block (by oversight) and in the case, the operator will not be able to see the Status indicator of the interlock that may be preventing valve operation.

• Clicking the Override button brings up a confirmation box, if ConfirmChange is TRUE. This button is only enabled when the function block is not in override mode.

• Clicking the Clear Override button brings up a confirmation box, if ConfirmChange is TRUE. This button is only enabled when the function block is in override mode.
