To change the user program parameters
1. Right-click the resource and select Properties. The Properties dialog box appears.
Enter the values in the input boxes or check the corresponding checkboxes.
2. Define the values for Autostart (Off, Cold Start, Warm Start) in the Properties menu for the
type instance of the corresponding resource. With cold start, the system initializes all signal
values, with warm start, it reads the signal values of retain variables from the non-volatile
memory.
The settings for the user program are thus defined.
7.7.3 Configuring the Inputs and Outputs
The Signal Connections pane for an I/O module or a remote I/O in the Hardware Management
is used to connect the signals previously defined in the Signal Editor to the individual hardware
channels (inputs and outputs).
To configure the inputs or outputs
1. Click the Signals menu to open the Signal Editor.
2. Right-click the module or the module or remote I/O and select Connect Signals on the
context menu.
The Signal Connections pane appears. It contains the Inputs and Outputs tabs.
3. Position the two dialog boxes adjacently to get a better overview.
4. Drag the signals onto the inputs located in the Signal Connections pane.
5. To connect the signals for the outputs, select the Outputs tab and proceed as described for
the inputs.
The inputs and outputs are now connected and thus effective in the user program.
Refer to the manual for the individual modules or remote I/Os, Chapter Signals and Error Codes
for the Inputs and Outputs for a description of the signals available for configuring the
corresponding module or remote I/O.
With the Inputs and Outputs tabs of the Signal Connections pane, observe the following points:
The signals for the error codes associated with the hardware channels are always located in
the Input tab.
The signals for setting the parameters or configuring the hardware channels are located in
the Outputs tab, for physical inputs or outputs too.
The hardware channel value for a physical input is always located in the Input tab, the
channel value for a physical output in the Output tab.
7.7.4 Configure Line Control
The pulse delay for line control is the time between setting the pulsed outputs to FALSE and the
latest possible reading of the signal on the corresponding input.
The default value is set to 400 μs. This value might need be increased if longer wires are used.
The maximum value is 2000 μs.
The minimum time for reading all inputs results in
pulse delay x number of pulses.
The pulsed outputs are usually set to TRUE and change to FALSE in succession for the
duration of the pulse delay once per cycle.
7.7.4.1 Required Signals
The following parameters must be created as signals in the Signal Editor of the ELOP II Factory
