Schneider Electric 5- Training M RUIZ September 2008
PresentationThe right tool for all phases of your project
Design : structured variables, libraries of FFBs and 5 IEC languages to develop your application program
Debug : a PLC simulator and high level of debug services to test and debug your program
Operation : operator screens and diagnostic viewer to monitor and control your process
Maintenance : on-line modifications to update your application program
Openness : use of XML format
-

Unity Pro is a full featured software package
All platforms benefit of the whole richness of the features5 IEC languagesStandardization capabilities
Through data : unlocated variables, structures and arraysThrough program : sections of program, user function blocks, functional modules
Multitasking capabilitiesMAST, FAST and AUX tasksEvent triggered treatments
Functional view to map your application to the process
With the possibility to bring more value through the opennessInterface to any client application through XML format

Embedded PLC simulatorNo hardware constraints to debug your programProvide the same execution capabilities as a PLCPossibility to use function blocks of IO management library to simulate
%I, %IW, %ID and %IF inputs (WRITE_INPUT_EBOOL, WRITE_INPUT_INT, )
An large set of debug servicesPower flow animation for graphical languagesBreakpoint and step by step to test and debug the programWatch point to know the real time value of a variableSFC monitoring of step activity timesColor used during execution progress (boolean variables, steps,
transitions, )

Schneider Electric 8- Training M RUIZ September 2008
Visualize and control the application with operator screensGraphical and animated view of your process
PLC and module diagnostic through configuration editor
Integrated system and application diagnostic accessible through the built-in diagnostic viewerNo programming requiredDisplay defaults saved in the PLC with source time stampingFault cause analysis to find origin of process defaultPossibility to acknowledge
Upward compatibility of the PLC applicationsLast version of Unity Pro supports the installed base design with
the previous versions

Schneider Electric 10- Training M RUIZ September 2008
Design and combined your standards to develop yourapplication in short time
Manage and share your standards
Describe the process through functional approach
Debug and adjust your application directly on your PC to reduce commissioning time
Use embedded diagnostic to reduce downtime
Manage all process data in the PLC
Dont Reinvent the wheel each Time

Schneider Electric 11- Training M RUIZ September 2008
Arrange PLC data according to the processData structures and multi-dimensional arraysUnlocated variables to create standard databases
without memory mappingReusability simple through standards in libraries
and import / export features
Move to a component approach in design withDerived function blocks (DFB)Create standards of your often used logicCombine these standards to design more
complex logic (nested DFB)Protect your know-how
Combine your Standards
-
Schneider Electric 12- Training M RUIZ September 2008
Organize your standards in user libraries and familiesLibrary manager is the repository of your
standards
Share your standards to developpersStandards are accessible to all programmersBe sure that your application contains the right
version Comparison of project to the libraryVersioning to trace modifications
Make modifications only to the model (type)All instances are automatically updated
Share your Standards

Schneider Electric 13- Training M RUIZ September 2008
Break down your application into functionalmodules close to the process
Use modular functional modules to describe a complex machineTree description with nested modular modulesEasy to find the right information through the
functional description of your application
Reduce design time to create custom machines by combination of existing functional modulesCreate standardized functional modulesExport / import modulesWizard to manage variables when reusing a
module

Use embedded diagnostic without programmingHardware and program diagnostic are easy
through clear messagesChoice of language for system messagesTime stamping and navigation to the root cause
Access to advanced diagnostic through functionblocksTo monitor a movement or any execution of the
processFault cause analysis
Diagnostic through Web pages accessible via Ethernet port

Some memory cards can save data files accessible from the PLC application throughfunction blocksCreate / delete filesGet / modify file attributesRead / write data
Use Ethernet / FTP to upload / download filesMemory card is managed as FTP serverUse Unity Loader or a standard tool (Internet
Explorer FTP Client) to exchange with the memorycard
