7.3.8 Assigning control strategies
BATCH configuration dialog
If you have created an equipment property as control strategy with different control strategy
parameters for different units in basic engineering, you can specify in the "Control strategies
of" dialog which of these parameters can be displayed and used for the configuration when
selecting a unit. It is a filter that you use to determine the selection of parameters unit by unit.
Requirement
● A control strategy with control strategy parameters has been created.
● BATCH parameter blocks "IEPAR_Type" have been interconnected using the
"EPE_CONN" I/O at the "UNIT_PLC" unit block.
● The created control strategy and a start value were assigned at all "SP_VAL" I/Os of the
"IEPAR_ENUM" BATCH parameter block.
● All data from basic engineering have been compiled and downloaded.
● The batch types have been generated and propagated, if necessary, in the BATCH
configuration dialog and the batch instances have been compiled and merged.
Dialog in the BATCH configuration dialog
Select the "Equipment properties" folder within the batch types of your Batch process cell and
select the control strategy (enumeration type with control strategy parameters). The "Edit"
button is displayed in the properties under control strategy parameters. The "Control strategies
of equipment properties" dialog opens when you click this button.
