Siemens D7-SYS - Equipment Response Utility; Changing the Data Types for Function Blocks

Changeover from STRUC V4.x to D7-SYS
System- and communication configuring D7-SYS - SIMADYN D 4-17
Edition 03.2001
4.2.2 Equipment response utility
For the equipment response utility, the associated attributes "MIN",
"MAX" and " 'Signal designator' (name) " are configured using the new
function blocks PLIM, PLIM_D, PLIM_I, PLIM_T and PNAME.
The DATX attribute is no longer included in D7-SYS. In order to be able
to directly access a connection having a different sampling time using an
input, instead of a DATX attribute, a pseudo comment „@DATX“ must be
configured.
4.2.3 Changing the data types for function blocks
The comparison between the data types of STRUC V. 4.x and D7-SYS is
provided in the following table:
STRUC V.4.x
