8 Programming Aids
Guidelines for creating an application program for the SIPART D24 controller
D Define task clearly
- Plant mimic, block diagram
- Mathematical perspectives/equations
- Special conditions, e.g. limit values, use of safety values, signal operating modes, start--
stop criteria, interlocks, reaction when reaching or exceeding limit values, restart condi-
tions etc.
D Clarify and define interfaces of the SIPART DR24 to the process
- Number and type of input and output variables (analog, digital, SES)
- Measuring ranges, signal ranges, significance
- Variables to be displayed
- Manual intervention possibilities with front keys, adjust variables, select variables/se-
quences
D SIPART DR24, version, connections
- Define version/equipment with signal convertors
Note accessories such as relay module, SES component
- Define interface assignments
- Define position of the jumpers on the main board and signal convertors,
e.g. 0/4--20 mA
- Determine the external load of the SIPART DR24 by BA and L+ supplied instruments, if
greater than allowed, provide external power supply or supply additional instruments from
remote source.
D Define front panel assignment
- Display dA2 as analog display or L14.0 to 14.9
- Displays: variables, measuring ranges, signal ranges, display ranges, Hi/Lo significance
- Switched variable, pushbutton: assigned LED: Hi/Lo significance
- Define labeling for rating plate and label on front panel
D Draw wiring diagram of the SIPART DR24
- Design block diagram of the function process, relationships of input range, function
range, output range; define links e.g. for bumpless switchover , tracking, blocking, exter-
nal feedback if necessary.
Define parameters (number and value)
- Transform block diagram to basic function blocks of arithmetic block numbers and basic
functions. Connect basic and complex function blocks with each other and with the input
and output functions. Connect the data sinks to the corresponding data sources
- Position function blocks
Define the processing sequence so that the individual arithmetic operations are per-
formed sequentially using up-to-date data.
