1 Installation

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Installation of the programming and test software 907 PC331 under the MSDOS operating system is described

below step by step. If you are still not familiar with someMSDOS terms, please look them up in your computersMSDOS operating system manual.

The installation program creates the following directorystructure under MSDOS:

C:\ ABBSPS AC31 PROJEKTBIB

Notes

At least 10 MBytes memory spacemust be free on thehard diskfor the installation. Insufficient memory spaceis indicated by the installation program by way of an ap-propriate message. In addition, at least 500 kB usermemoryis required. The DOS command CHKDSKgivesyou details about the size of the free user memory.

The entries for FILES and BUFFERS in the CON-FIG.SYS file are checked by the installation program and,if necessary, are adjusted to the values required for oper-

ating 907 PC 331:FILES=25BUFFERS=25

to start.

If the CONFIG.SYS file was changed, first press in order to restart the PC.

Notes

At the start, the installation program checks whether an old version of 907 PC 331 is already installed. Installation canonly take place if the old version is overwritten by the new one. Therefore, if you have relevant user data in thesubdirectory ABBSPS\AC31, you must first save this. All files in directory AC31 are deleted and replaced bynew files during installation.

If difficulties arise during automatic installation, you can alternatively carry out the > manual installation.

2.3 Programming

The PLC can be programmed in:

Instruction list (IL)

Function block diagram (FBD)

Ladder diagram (LD)

Sequential function chart (SFC)

Programming in the instruction list corresponds toDIN 19239. This DIN defines the structure of the instruc-tion and of the function block. The user program is en-tered into the PLC via the serial interface COM1 of thePLC.

When doing so, the ASCII characters from the instructionlist are directly transferred to the PLC. The programmingand test software, integrated in the PLC, translates the in-struction list during the transfer into another format. Thisformat (pseudocode) is required for the processing. Thesoftware stores it in the user program RAM of the PLC.

The ASCII clear text interface revealed enables access tothe PLC with different userfriendly aids. These rangefrom the simple ASCII keyboard with digital display, be-yond the terminal, up to the userfriendly programmingand test system.

2.3.1 Procedure for creating a program

Creating an executable PLC program can be divided upas follows:

Enter program, constants, system constants for oper-ating modes and system constant for cycle time intothe programming system

Translate the program in the programming system

Send program to the control system

Send constants to the control system

Save program in the Flash EPROM

Start up and test the PLC program

For successful entering and altering of a program, pleasepay special attentionto the following detailed descrip-tion.

2.3.2 Entering / changing a program

A PLC program can be entered or changed via the serialinterface COM1 of the PLC in the following statuses:

Aborted status

Running status

Entering / changing a program in theaborted status

In the aborted status, program changes can be madewithout restriction. Beforestarting a changed program,the operating modes must be set so that all operandranges are initialized. It is thus ensured that all operandsand historical values are initialized to 0, and valuesstored by the battery backup do not lead to malfunctions.

Procedure when entering / changing a program in

the aborted status

Enter program / changes into the programming sys-tem

Translate program / changes in the programming sys-tem

Send program / changes to the control system

Save program in Flash EPROM

Note:For details really see also chapter 2.4 Program saving inthe Flash EPROM.

Entering / changing a program in the

running status

Changes can be made to a runningPLC program.

When the changes are taken over, there is noPLCstandstill time.

The user must exercise extreme care when makingchanges to a running PLC program, as the programchanges immediately influence the running processwithout the possibility of tests.Programming errors can have grave results.

8/10/2019 2CDC120031M0201.pdf

15/54

23907 PC 331/Issued: 11.98

Permissible program changes

Any program changes are permissible as long as nofunction blocks with historical values are affected.

Function blocks with historical values may only beadded to or omitted at the program end.

Any changes to indirect constants are permissible.This also includes changing the cycle time. If systemconstants are changed, chapter system constantsmust be taken into account.

Forbidden program changes

Deleting or adding to function blocks with historicalvalues within the PLC program is not allowed.

Procedure when changing a PLC

program in the running status

Carry out changes in the programming system

Translate changes in the programming system

Send changes to the control system

Release changes

Save changes in the Flash EPROM

Note:For details really see also chapter 2.4 Program saving inthe Flash EPROM.

Rejecting a released change to a running PLC pro-

gram and reactivating the old program status

Not with AC31 Series 30, 40, 50

Using the Reactivate old program menu field, the old

program status can be reproduced. I.e. the changes car-ried out to and released for a running PLC program arerejected again.

In addition, the PLC reproduces the old program status.The old program status is the status of the program priorto the program alteration.

After entering the Reactivate old program menu field,the reactivation of the old program status takes placewithout further interference by the user within approx. 1ms.

The command can be used if the user realizes that theprogram changes carried out do not produce the resultshe hoped for.

Caution:The reactivation of the old program status only takesplace in the PLC. The user is expected to make undonethe changes in the programming and test system himself.

2.4 Saving a program in the

Flash EPROM

The user can copy the PLC program from the program

RAM to the Flash EPROM in order to save it in case ofpower fail or power off. To protect the program against

power off, a back-up battery is therefore not neces-sary.

2.4.1 Program: RAM > Flash EPROM

The program is saved in the Flash EPROM as follows:

in the ABB programming and test system bycalling the menu field

Progr. > EPROM

or

in the terminal emulation by entering thecommand

SP

The Flash EPROM is deleted as follows:

in the ABB programming and test system bycalling the menu field

Delete EPROM

or

in the terminal emulation by entering thecommand

DEEPAll configuration data which is in conjunction with theuser program is saved inclusively when the PLC pro-gram is copied to the Flash EPROM.

2.4.2 Program: Flash EPROM > RAM

If a PLC program is stored in the Flash EPROM, thisprogram is copied automatically into the programRAM in the following events:

Power ON

RUN/STOP switch from STOP > RUN

Program started with programming systemIn order to make sure that an changed program is notoverwritten by an old program version stored in theFlash EPROM, it is first necessary

to store the changed program in theFlash EPROM

or

to delete the FlashEPROM

before any of the above mentioned actions.

2.4.3 Commissioning phase

If many program changes must be made during a sys-tems commissioning phase, it is recommended to deletethe Flash EPROM and to use a backup battery for theRAM instead.This has the following advantages:

The time taken for repeated programstorage is saved

Inconsistencies between the programming de-vice and the controller due to forgotten pro-gram saving cannot occur.

After commissioning has been completed, it is appropri-ate to save the program from the RAM into the EPROM.

The system constants with the relevant, required value (inthe long text) can be transferred to the variable list as theyare or can be changed. They are transferred to the PLCwith function Send constants. In this case, the systemconstants are deleted by command Delete variables (inthe block).

2. User program

The system constants are planned in the user program.The value is entered in the long text of the constant.

In this case, the system constants are retained even afterDelete variables (in the block).

It is practical to preset by a connection element (CE) or aninstruction after the end of the program (PE).

2.5.2 Error diagnosis with Advant Controller 31

Using the default online list, it is possible to perform errordiagnosis for Advant Controller 31. This online list can beread in with function Read block. The online list (which isblank at the start) must be called for this purpose. The de-fault online list is read in with command KR and byentering:

C:\ABBSPS\AC31\PROJEKT\ONLINE

2.5.3 Intermediate flag, updating

If an output of a connection element (CE) is connected di-rectly to the input of another CE in the function block dia-gram, the programming and test system 907 PC 33 auto-matically assigns an intermediate flag for this connection.

Intermediate flagCE1

CE2

This intermediate flag is used several times in the pro-gram unless it is assigned globally. Owing to this multi-ple use, new values are continually assigned to the inter-mediate flag. In the case of some connection elements(CEs), the outputs and therefore the associated interme-

diate flags are not updated in every program cycle. Inter-

mediate flags not updated by the CE1 can lead to faultyresults with CE2. These faults are often difficult to recog-nize and find.

Remedy:

1. As a result, the outputs may not be directly connectedwith inputs of the subsequent CEs by lines in the caseof CEs which do not update their outputs. In this case,the connection to the next CE must be made by the

explicit definition of a flag which is not in the range ofthe intermediate flags.

2. Alternatively, it is also possible to assign the interme-diate flags globally in the concerned partial plan byadding @GLO as a text at the start of the partial plan.

Example:No updating of the CE outputs; consequently, assign aflag explicitly.

The Project datamenu contains information relevant tocreation, processing and documentation of the user pro-gram.

Refer to 907 PC 33, chapter 5, for explanation of the pa-rameters which can be entered.

PLC type

The first step is to select the PLC type field with the cursor.Press the space bar to set and select the PLC type for

which the user program is intended.

Series 90:

Make this selection when you program a 07 KR 91,07 KT 92, 07 KT 93 or 07 KT 94.

Series 30,40,50:

Make this selection when you program a 07 KR 31,07 KT 31, 07 CR 41, 07 CT 41, 07 KR 51 or 07 KT 51.

07 KP 62:

Make this selection when you program the communica-

tion processor 07 KP 62 of the system ABB ProconticT200.

T320 V8:

Make this selection when you are processing a projectwhich you have transferred with data transfer from 907

PC 32. This allows you to process and adapt the oper-ands which, for example, exceed the limits of Series 90.

This activates the PLC type-dependent syntax monitor-ing facility for the program input. The relevant range limitsof the operands of Series 30, 40, 50 and 90 are listed inVolume 4.

Note: The flag ranges (M and MW) are not limited bythe Series 30, 40, 50 choice. The user has to take care

not to use an invalid variable. Otherwise a transmis-

sion error will occur when the program is sent to thecentral unit.

There is no control type-dependent monitoring for the in-put of the connection elements (CEs) in the FBD/LD edi-tor. All CEs contained in the CE library can be enteredwith every control type setting.

All further settings in the above screen display are ex-plained in the operating manual 907 PC 33, General Part.

The choice of Series 30, 40, 50 selects the library withconnection elements (CEs) available for these central

units.With the Series 30, 40, 50 the library of SER50 has tobe chosen instead of the SER90 library. The library of

SER50 contains all connection elements (CEs) avail-able for Series 30, 40, 50.

IMPORTANT:Depending on the nature of the ONLINE functions,

these have a direct influence on the PLC programand/or the I/O signals and thus on the process.Therefore, in all cases before running the function,make sure that personal injury and machine damageare impossible!

907 PC 331 provides a series of functions for commis-sioning and checking the PLC program. These includethe main menu options PLC Commun. 1...3 and theONLINE functions that can be called in the FBD/LD edi-tor, extended IL and the variable editor in a menu. To dothis, your PCs serial interface COM1 must be connectedto the PLCs serial interface with the cable 07 SK 90 R1,

FPTN404948R0002 or 07 SK 50. You will find a furtherdescription of this cable in the system description of theAdvant Controller 31, Volume 2 Hardware.

You can use either the interface COM1 or COM2 of yourPC for communication with the PLC. The interface is setin the main menu Config.PC33, COM port for prog..When delivered, 907 PC 331 is set to the interface COM1.

4.1 PLC communication

Monitoring of the access path

If the programming system loads a PLC program in thePLC, the project name is also transferred to the PLC andstored.The programming system automatically checks whetherthe access path leads to the required user program, be-fore each access operation to the PLC.

For this purpose, a check is conducted in order to estab-lish whether the project name in the PLC is the same as

the project name in the programming system.

This ensures that the programming system is connectedto the correct user program.

The user does not notice this check of the access path ifthe settings in the PLC are the same as the settings in theprogramming system. If differences are established dur-ing the check, a message is displayed, informing the op-erator what setting exists in the PLC and what setting ex-ists in the programming system. The user must then ac-knowledge whether the setting in the programming sys-

tem is to be transferred to the PLC or not.

Message if the names do not correspond:ID in PLC:XXX / im System:YYY. Change? (Y/N)XXX = project name in the PLCYYY = project name in the programming system

Note on communication:Communication between the PLC and the programmingand test system is possible only if operating modeDEUTSCH is set on the PLC (default setting when deliv-ered). This also applies if working with the English pro-

gramming software.

1 Send program

The PLC program which exists in the form of an instruc-tion list is transferred if menu option Send programis se-lected.

After transfer, you are prompted to decide whether thevalues of the constants (K, KW, KD) are also to be trans-ferred. If you answer Yes, the constants are transferred.

We must distinguish between two cases when transfer-

ring programs to the PLC. We suggest the following pro-cedure:

Case 1:

The program in the PLC is in status ABORTED: Transfer program to the PLC Transfer constants to the PLC Save program in flash EPROM Start program

Note:

Before starting the PLC program the system constantsKW00,01 ... KW00,05 have to be set to 0 (= default) if the

program has been modified in order to be on the safe side,so that all operand areas are initialized with 0 when start-ing the program. This makes sure that stored values ofoperands or historical values do not result in malfunc-tions. After program start the system constants KW00,01... KW00,05 can again be set to the values required for theapplication.

Case 2:

The program in the PLC is in status RUNNING: Trans-fer program to the PLC Transfer constants to the PLC Enable changes in the PLC for processing Save program in flash EPROM

Notes:

When the alterations are taken over, there is no PLCstandstill time.The user must exercise extreme care when makingchanges to a running PLC program, as the programchanges immediately influence the running process with-out the possibility of tests. Programming errors can havegrave results.

2 Receive program

The program is read from the PLC and stored in the pro-gramming system if you select menu option Receive pro-gram.

The start and end address of the program or program partto be read out must be specified. If the address of the endof the program PE is known, the program can be read outspecifically up to this address. It is advisable to determinethe address of the end of the program from the translatedIL since entering the end address substantially speeds upthe process of reading back from the PLC. If the PLC pro-gram is not read out as of word address 0, the range be-tween word address 0 and the entered start address ispadded automatically with NOPs in the programming sys-

tem.

3 Compare program

The program is read out of the PLC and compared to thecurrent program stored in the programming system if youselect menu option Compare porgram.

Modularized projects:Calling up from the overall project level

In the case of modularized projects, the program compar-ison is conducted modulebymodule. The modules are

compared in the order in which they are listed in the mod-ularization editor.

Modularized projects:Calling up from the program module level

In the case of modularized projects, program comparisontakes place on a modulerelated basis if it is called upfrom the program module level. The PLC program is readout and compared starting at the address where the mo-dule begins up to the last address of the module.

After the program has been read out of the controller, allinstructions are checked for differences. Stating the wordnumber, it is shown whether the command, operand oroperand number differ.

The program comparison can be aborted after every de-tected difference. The number of differences found is dis-played at the end.

4 Delete program

The program is deleted from the PLC if you select menuoption Delete program.

The programming system suggests 0 as an initial word

number and 30583 as an end word number. Change theend word number to the maximum number of addressessupported by the PLC.

5 Send constants

The indirect constants (K, KW, KD) are transferred to thePLC if you select menu option Send constants.If only values of constants are changed in the program-ming system and the program remains unchanged, it suf-fices to transfer these to the PLC with function Send con-stants. In this case, it is not necessary to transfer the pro-gram itself again to the PLC.

Function Send constantscan be performed if the PLCprogram is in

status RUNNING or in

status ABORTED.

6 Receive constants

The indirect constants (K, KW, KD) of the PLC programare read from the PLC and stored in the programmingsystem in the variable list if you select menu option Re-ceive constants.The two binary constants (K 00,00 and K 00,01) are readout automatically. In the case of the word constants (KW)and the double word constants (KD), the required rangemust be specified. For example:Word constants from: KW 00,00 toKW 01,00.You can quit the function with . When reading out,it is of no importance whether the constants to be read outare actually used in the program or not.

7 Compare constants

The constants (K, KW, KD) of the PLC program are readfrom the PLC and compared with those in the current proj-ect of the programming system if you select menu optionCompare constants. Differences are displayed.

8 Start program

The PLC program is started if you select menu optionStart program. If there is a program in the Flash EPROM,this program is copied to the user program RAM andstarted. The user must thus ensure that

the most recent program version is always saved inthe Flash EPROM or

he works with an erased Flash EPROM during the testphase in which many program changes occur.

9 Abort program

The PLC program is aborted if you select menu optionAbort program. The related process outputs are set to thevalue 0.

1 Progr. > EPROM2 Delete EPROM3 Enable PLC mode4 Cold start5 Terminal emulation

1 Program > EPROM

When the menu point Progr. > EPROMis selected, theuser program is transferred from the RAM memory of thePLC into the Flash EPROM. This safeguards the userprogram against power failure.Whenever the PLC program is started up, the PLC pro-gram is first automatically transferred from the FlashEPROM to the RAM memory. The PLC program is thenstarted from the RAM memory. Automatic transfer of the

PLC program from the Flash EPROM to the RAMmemory naturally only occurs when a PLC program is ac-tually present in the Flash EPROM.

2 Delete EPROM

Selecting the menu point Delete EPROMdeletes the userprogram in the Flash EPROM of the PLC. The FlashEPROM should be deleted, for example, when you wishto prevent the program being overwritten in the RAM bythe program version from the Flash EPROM at the start ofthe program (commissioning phase).

3 Enable PLC modeThe PLC mode (e.g. Standalone or Master) is defined bythe value of the system constant KW 00,00. The defaultsetting for the mode is Standalone mode (KW 00,00 =2).

A change of the PLC mode is performed in three steps:

1. Change system constant KW 00,00 and transfer tothe PLC

2. Save the PLC program in the Flash EPROM (thissaves the changed system constant KW 00,00 in the

Flash EPROM)

3. Activate the new PLC mode by: calling menu option Enable PLC modeor switching the power off and back on again or calling menu option Cold start

If the RUN/STOP switch is set to RUN, the PLC programis also started with Enable PLC mode.

4 Cold start

A cold start is performed on the PLC if you call menu op-tion Cold start.

A cold start sets the PLC to its initial state (condition asdelivered). All RAMs are tested and erased. If there is aprogram in the Flash EPROM, this program is transferredto the program RAM. The modes configured in this pro-gram are set on the PLC.

5 Terminal emulation

The programming and test system emulates a terminal ifyou select menu option Terminal emulation.The PLC has integrated programming, test and monitorfunctions which provide the user with access to all PLCcapabilities via a terminal. Certain PLC functions whichcannot be addressed directly by the programming systemcan be used with the aid of Terminal emulation. The possi-ble functions within terminal emulation are described inthe System description Advant Controller 31, Section 7.

Quiiting TerminalEmulation:You can quit terminal emulation again by pressing key

In Trace mode, the PLC notes in a trace register the userprogram address last executed. After a system crash, thistells you at what point in the program the crash occurred.Trace mode increases the execution time of the user pro-gram. The contents of the trace register are retained evenin the following cases:

in the case of a warm start (Enable PLC mode)

The contents of the trace register are displayed if you se-lect menu option Trace status. The trace register containsthe last program address executed.

4 I/O test on

Operating mode I/O test is activated if you select menuoption I/O test on.

In operating mode I/O test, the user can check the cor-rectness of the wiring of his I/O signals from the PLC pro-gram through to the process.

The PLC program is notexecuted after start in operatingmode I/O test. Only the I/O signals planned in the pro-

gram are operated, i.e. the input signals are read in andthe output signals are output. However, the output signalsare output only if they have been set by the user, e.g. byforcing.

By actuating limit switches etc., it is possible to checkwhether these signals are arriving in the PLC with the de-clared I/O designations. By specifically overwriting orforcingoutputs, you can check whether the signals issuedare arriving at the correct point in the process.

The values of the I/O operands of interest in the PLC canbe displayed with function Status displayin online mode.

Command I/O test oncan be executed even with the pro-gram running. The operating mode is then activated at thestart of the next program cycle.

Note on how to carry out changes in a program:

If changes are made in a program, they have to be trans-lated and send before leaving the editor.

Fast translation and transmission of the program

A fast procedure can be used for translating the FBD/LDor extended IL, namely Translate changes. However, aprecondition is that the entire program has already beentranslated once.

Sending the translated IL to the PLC can also be acceler-ated by Send changes. However, a precondition is thatthe entire program has already been sent once.

With Send changes, whole partial plans (those in whichchanges have been made) are sent.

In addition, it is also possible to transfer program changesor a complete program online, i.e. with the PLC running.

In order to be able to use all possibilities, a few instruc-tions must be observed. These are listed in the table be-low.

The PLC requires approximately 1 ms to reactivate theold program status.You can use the command if you recognize that the pro-gram changes made on the runningPLC program are nothaving the required effect.

Note:The abovedescribed functionality runs only in the PLC,i.e. the program changes made and stored in the pro-gramming system are not affected by this. The user him-

self must ensure that the changes are cancelled again inthe programming system so that the program in the PLCis the same as the program in the programming systemagain.

Send programm 3

The PLC program which exists in the form of an instruc-tion list is transferred completely if you select menu optionSend program.

After transfer, the system prompts you to decide whetherthe values of the constants (K, KW, KD) are also to betransferred. If you answer Yes, this is then done.

We must distinguish between two cases when transfer-ring programs to the PLC. We suggest the following pro-cedure for this:

Case 1:The program in the PLC is in status ABORTED: Transfer program to the PLC Transfer constants to the PLC Save program in Flash EPROM Start program

Note:

Before starting the PLC program the system constantsKW00,01 ... KW00,05 have to be set to 0 (= default) if theprogram has been modified in order to be on the safe side,so that all operand areas are initialized with 0 when start-ing the program. This makes sure that stored values ofoperands or historical values do not result in malfunc-tions. After program start the system constants KW00,01... KW00,05 can again be set to the values required for theapplication.

Case 2:

The program in the PLC is in status RUNNING: Trans-fer program to the PLC Transfer constants to the PLC Enable changes in the PLC for processing Save program in flash EPROM

Notes:When the alterations are taken over, there is no PLCstandstill time.The user must exercise extreme care when makingchanges to a running PLC program, as the programchanges immediately influence the running process with-

out the possibility of tests. Programming errors can havegrave results.

Compare program 4

The program is read out of the PLC and compared withthe current program stored in the programming system ifyou select menu option Compare program.

In the case of modularized projects, program compari-sons are made on a modulerelated basis. The PLC pro-gram is read out as from the address at which the module

starts and is compared up to the address at which the mo-dule ends.

After the program has been read from the PLC, all instruc-tions are checked for differences. The system displayswhether command, operand or operand number differ,specifying the word number.

The program comparison can be aborted after every de-tected difference. The number of differences found is dis-played at the end.

The help program Compare offers a further possibilityfor comparing PLC projects. It is described in chapter 5.

Send constants 6

The indirect constants (K, KW, KD) are transferred to thePLC if you select menu option Send constants.If only values of constants have changed in the program-ming system and the program remains unchanged, it suf-fices to transfer these to the PLC with Send constants.The program itself does not need to be transferred to thePLC again.

You can perform function Send constantsif the programis in

status RUNNINGor in status ABORTED.

Compare constants 7

The constants (K, KW, KD) of the PLC program are readfrom the PLC and compared with those in the current proj-ect of the programming system if you select menu optionCompare constants. Differences are displayed.

Program > EPROM

The user program is transferred from the RAM of the PLCto the Flash EPROM if you select menu option Progr. >

EPROM. This thus safeguards the user program againstpower failure.

Each time the PLC program is started, the PLC programis first transferred automatically from the Flash EPROMto the RAM. The PLC program in the RAM is then started.Automatic transfer of the PLC program from the FlashEPROM to the RAM is performed, of course, only if thereis actually a PLC program in the Flash EPROM.

Delete EPROM

The user program in the Flash EPROM of the PLC is de-

leted if you select menu option Delete EPROM. The FlashEPROM should be erased for instance if you wish to pre-vent the program in the RAM being overwritten by the pro-gram version from the Flash EPROM when starting theprogram (commissioning phase).

4.2 Test

Extensive operator control and test functions are avail-able for testing the PLC program in online mode. Theseoperator control and test functions can be used

in the FBD/LD in the extended IL in the variable list in the online list.

In addition, online information such as program status,variable status and breakpoint addresses is displayed onthe monitor.

Status information is designated or abbreviated as fol-lows:

in the function block diagram/ladder diagr. FBD/LDin the extended instruction list (extended IL)in the variable listin the online list

Notes:

Display of variable states when the program is aborted:

Inputs: As the central units use the process image,the last states of the inputs retain in the inputimage. If therefore the program is aborted andafter that, the states of the inputs change,then these states cannot be displayed as theprocess image is not updated.

Outputs: When the program is aborted, the realoutputsare set to 0. However the outputs in the pro-cess image still have their old values. Thatmeans that the old states of the outputs aredisplayed in 907 PC 331. Only after a newstart of the PLC program the process imagewill be updated.

Overwrite

The Overwrite function permits you to overwrite variableswith assignable values in the PLC. These values are re-tained until new values are assigned again to these vari-ables by the PLC program, the process or the user. It ispossible to overwrite both with the program running andwith the program aborted.

Overwrite is possible for the following operands:

Flags: M, MW, MD Inputs: E, EW Outputs: A, AW Indirect constants: K, KW, KD Steps: S

(only Set possible; Reset is possible, by definitiononly by setting another step)

Overwrite procedure:

Several variables simultaneously:

Enter the name of the variable to be overwritten and therequired value(s) in the online list with menu option Editoverwrite list;

Variables are overwritten in the PLC with menu optionOverwrite allor by pressing hotkey R. This applies to allvariables identified accordingly in the online list.

Overwrite single variables:

A single variable is overwritten in the PLC with menuoption Overwrite singleor by pressing hotkey U.

When does overwriting occur?

Program execution running::

Overwriting occurs at the end of the program; it isactive in the next program cycle.

Program execution stopped:

e.g. in the case of breakpoint, Single step, Singlecycle; overwriting occurs immediately and isactive immediately.
