RUNNING MULTIPLE INSTANCES OF TWIDOSOFT ON THE SAME PC
TwidoSoft is not designed to run multiple instances of the
software on a single PC.
ON LINE HELP INDEX PREPARATION
When you use the on line help index, if a message appears to
indicate the index creation each time, and your PC-compatible
computer operation system is Windows XP, then check the
directory ..\Twidosoft\bin, in order to verify if you have
writing rights in this directory.
LADDER EDITOR
If you use the function keys (F2 to F12, or icon selection) to
select the object you want to insert in a rung, this key will
be active for only one insertion. To make multiple insertions,
use the association with the Ctrl key, then the effect of the
function key (or icon selection) will be kept.
HOW TO USE ASCII STRING IN A PROGRAM
To assign an ASCII string to internal memory words, proceed as
below :
[%MW0 := "BO"]
[%MW1 := "NJ"]
[%MW2 := "OU"]
[%MW3 := "R "]
CHANGE BASE CONTROLLER TYPE FIRST
Validation and analysis are made with respect to the controller
type. It is recommended that you start your application
development by selecting the target Controller type first. In
this way, your system configuration will only consider the
appropriate functions and maximum limitations.
MODEM MANAGEMENT BY THE CONTROLLER
When a modem is configured on a communication port inside the
application, the Twido controller sends an initialization
string (HAYES protocol) to the modem at power up.
AS-INTERFACE MODULE MANAGEMENT (TWD NOI 10M3)
Twidosoft offers two screens for the AS-Interface master
module management. A configuration screen and a debug screen.
The debug screen shows in connected mode, at the bottom, red
information to indicate a non active state, but not an error,
as defined in the IEC standard IEC 62026-2 (2000-07).
AS-Interface SAFETY PRODUCTS IMPLEMENTATION:
- The A2SI integrated circuit version of the AS-Interface
safety slaves must be higher or equal to V3-7 (Rev C) .
All the Schneider AS-Interface safety slaves ASISSLxx
implement the V3-7 (Rv C) version since week 22 of
year 2003.
- For the ASISSLC1/ASISSLC2 products, the cable length
connected to the M12 has to be stricly less than 3meters
(ex: 2m).
- Take into account the Schneider EMC manual recommendations,
especially:
. the AS-Interface cable and inout/output cables must be
far enough from the power cables.
. connect the earth to the Gnd AS-Interface power supply
plug ( connector called Gnd or Shd near the ASI+/ASI-),
connect the AS-Interface master Gnd and the AS-Interface
safety monitor PE.
CLEARING CONTROLLER MEMORY
There may come a time when you want to initialize the
controller memory to the original factory settings. This can be
accomplished in one of two ways.
First, you can use TwidoSoft and select "Erase" from the
"Controller" main menu. From the Erase dialog, select "Erase
all".
The second method is to use the operator display (TWD XCP ODC
or ODM). Simply depress and hold any of the keys and power
cycle the unit. When power is restored release the key and you
will note that the controller is in NCF (non-configured mode).
REAL TIME CLOCK UPDATE
The RTC update using the system bits and words must be done
using the following sequence:
- Set to 1 the %S50 (disables the date and time
update by the operating system),
- Update system words %WS50 to %SW53 (year, month,
day, hour, ...),
- Update the system word %SW60 with the correction
factor written on the RTC accessory (TWD XCP RTC),
- Set to 0 the %S50.
PROGRAM ANALYSIS
Missing point from Program analysis:
- Do not leave empty lines between a subroutine (%SR1:),
label (%L1:), or grafcet definition (=*= 1) and the initial
instruction of that section.
USER MANUAL CORRECTION
The instruction "LDN %SW8x:X4" allows to know if the CAN_CMD
instruction is correctly executed before sending another command.
