6.2 Operating and monitoring the SFC by means of faceplate
Overview
You operate the SFC and the SFC instance by means of a faceplate.
● The faceplate for the SFC has the following views:
– "SFC chart" faceplate, "SFC section" view (Page 34)
– "SFC Chart" faceplate, "Messages" view (Page 36)
● The faceplate for the SFC instance has the following views:
– "SFC Instance" faceplate, "Actual Values" view (Page 37)
– "SFC Instance" faceplate, "Prepared Values" view (Page 42)
– "SFC Instance" faceplate, "Parameters" view (Page 43)
– "SFC Instance" faceplate, "Messages" view (Page 44)
– "SFC Instance" faceplate, "Batch" view (Page 45)
– "SFC Instance" faceplate, "Block contacts" view (Page 41)
– "SFC Instance" faceplate, "Equipment modules" view (Page 46)
– "SFC Instance" faceplate, "Equipment phases" view (Page 48)
Note
You can only ever start an SFC instance in the faceplate in the "Prepared Values" view.
This is most important if control strategies or setpoints are being used, because a control
strategy and setpoints have to be set prior to starting.
Holding the faceplate
In the top left-hand corner above the overview line there is a button that can be used to anchor
the faceplate on the screen in order to keep it in place if the focus is changed. The button is
visualized as follows:
Not pinned (after opening the faceplate)
Pinned (after pressing the key)
A pinned faceplate remains pinned until it is closed; this means pressing the button again has
no effect.
