2 Add-On Instructions
(AOI)
Please refer to the IND360 Fill/Dose Application Software User’s Guide for a
complete description of the application’s functionality. This application user
manual can be downloaded from the IND360 download page
(www.mt.com/ind-ind360-downloads).
2.1. Fill/Dose Application
This AOI is used to read and write the configuration parameters, control the
running state, and view process status of the Fill/Dose application. In this
sample code, the AOI uses Measuring Block 1 from the IND360 (referred to as
IND360:I.MB1 or IND360:O.MB1 in the controller tags). If the PLC
communication is set up as SAI 8 Block format, any Measuring Block (1-7)
can be used.
Before using this AOI, make sure the Fill/Dose application is enabled under the
PAC Management setup menu in the IND360.
Please note that this sample code is for reference only. You must thoroughly
test any PLC code in your own controller and production environment to make
sure it functions as you expect.
Figure 2-1: SAI_IND360_FillDose AOI
Trigger this bit to start one cycle of fill, fill-
dump, dose or refill-dose. Upon successful
execution of this command, the input bit will be
reset.
Trigger this bit to transition to Idle state (all I/O
turned off, captured tare weight is reset,
application configuration is possible again)
This should always be set to the
MB1_Measuring_Value of the IND360. This will
provide weight data for the AOI.
