AUTOMATIONWORX Software Suite

WebVisit is part of the AUTOMATIONWORX Software Suite. The following programs belong to the AUTOMATIONWORX Software Suite: – Config+ Simple configuration and commissioning of INTERBUS networks – Diag+ User-friendly network diagnostics during commissioning and operation – Diag+ NetScan User-friendly monitoring of multiple INTERBUS networks – PC WorX Uniform IEC-61131 programming environment for all PHOENIX CONTACT control systems – AX OPC Server Software for exchanging data between distributed INTERBUS networks and visualization systems – WebVisit Tool for creating websites for PHOENIX CONTACT control systems You can select the required programs individually or simultaneously for installation. As you can use WebVisit to visualize variables from PC WorX, you should install these two programs as a minimum. You only need to select Diag+ if you want to use it independently of PC WorX. When PC WorX is installed, Diag+ is installed as part of PC WorX. When one of the programs in the Software Suite is started for the first time, it runs in demo mode with limited resources. A registration code is required to enable the full version. You will receive the registration code when a full version of the relevant program is purchased.

Starting the Installation Program

Usually, the installation program will start automatically a few seconds after you place the CD-ROM in the CD drive. • If it does not, start the "SETUP.EXE" file from the "[Drive]:\SETUP\" directory on the CD-ROM. This file calls the installation wizard, which guides you through the installation process. • Follow the installation program instructions. The installation program will generate all the directories necessary for operation and will copy the files for the programs you have selected. • Following successful installation, restart your PC to apply the changes to the configuration files. To do this, click "Finish" at the end of the installation process.

2.4 •

Starting WebVisit

For installation using the default settings, start WebVisit via "Start/Programs/Phoenix Contact/AUTOMATIONWORX Software Suite .../WebVisit". When started for the first time, WebVisit runs in demo mode.

If you wish to switch from demo mode to the full version, enable your WebVisit license.

2.5

Enabling the WebVisit License

Enable your license in the AUTOMATIONWORX Software Suite License Manager. • For installation using the default settings, start the License Manager via "Start/Programs/Phoenix Contact/License Manager". • Select "WebVisit" as the version. • Enter your registration code. • Confirm your entry with "Apply Settings". • Close the License Manager. Registration will come into effect when WebVisit is started again.

WebVisit 3.1

Abbreviations Used

HMI

Human Machine Interface, e.g., a WebVisit graphic view displayed on a touch panel or in a PC browser.

*.prj

File extension for WebVisit projects created using the WebVisit editor. A WebVisit project contains all information required in order to create an HMI on a touch panel or in a browser.

Graphic view

A WebVisit graphic view is comprised of WebVisit graphic icons and represents the HMI. A graphic view of this type is stored in a *.teq file.

*.teq

File extension of a WebVisit graphic view generated by the WebVisit editor.

Graphic icon

A graphic icon is a visualization object used by the WebVisit editor to draw graphic views. These objects are programmed in Java. The objects of a graphic view are saved on the target system in a Java applet.

Java applet (applet)

Small program written in Java programming language that is loaded from a server (in this case a control system) and interpreted and executed in a user browser that has Java capability.

PDP (PPO)

Process Data Point. A PDP is any application-software variable that is to be made visible and/or enabled for operation in a WebVisit graphic view. The designation PPO is used as a data type in WebVisit.

Container

A container is a local variable within the WebVisit editor. A variable of the CONTAINER type is used to exchange data between the graphic icons of one or more graphic views.

3.2

File Formats

All the file formats required to generate an HMI based on WebVisit are listed below. The browser addresses an html page as follows: http:///.html. This file is generated by WebVisit ("Project... Generate HTML..." menu). The file contains a reference to a Java applet that is responsible for visualization. If the project's html page is called entry.html, its file name does not need to be entered. In this case, only the IP address of the target system needs to be entered for addressing purposes. Other references point to *.teq files, which are generated by the WebVisit editor for every graphic view and determine the layout of those graphic views. All Java classes are saved in a Java archive called IMaster.jar. The following files must be saved in the target system in order to obtain a visualization based on an embedded web server: – The homepage of ".html" – The Java class library "IMaster.jar" – All graphic views (*.teq) – All additional user-specific HTML files (help pages, for example) – All view files that are used – The variable initialization files ".tcr" and ".itq" Please note that for web pages created by users, paths are not used as references, as subdirectories are not supported.

Certain properties of graphic icons can be linked to a condition, for example, the data sources in the Properties dialog box under "Repaints" or the color change under "Border Advanced". The format of these conditions is always the same and is described below. • First, in the "Type" field, select the type of the variable on which the condition is to depend. This can be the PPO (process data point) type or the CONTAINER (HMI internal variable) type. • Enter the name of the variable in the "Name" field. • Select the comparison type in the "Select" field. The following options are available:

Visualization With WebVisit This section describes how to visualize a current project. The example project from "Appendix: Example Project in PC WorX" on page A-1 is used as a basis for this.

4.1

PC WorX and WebVisit

To visualize variables from a PC WorX project using WebVisit, the following requirements must be met: – You have created a project on a controller with the appropriate firmware (see "Supported Control Systems" on page 1-2). – The variables to be visualized have been created as global variables (VAR_GLOBAL or VAR_EXTERNAL). – The "PDD" attribute is marked for the variable. You make these settings when creating the variables (see also "Programming" on page A-6).

4.2 • •

Creating a New Project

Select the "New Project..." command from the "File" menu. Give your project a name (in this case quickstart) in the dialog box that appears, and save the project.

A *.prj project file and all other required files are then created and displayed in the "Project Files" window.

Configuring a Project

Select the "Project... Project Configurations..." menu command. Specify the basic settings for the project in the window that appears. If these settings are changed during the course of the project, the new settings will only be applied to new graphic views! Therefore, you must make the change for all existing graphic views, if necessary.

PHOENIX CONTACT

7361_en_01

Visualization With WebVisit Order per view (update per view): Every graphic view can contain several process data points. You have two options for updating process data points: – Update all PDPs at once (checkbox not activated) In order to perform the update efficiently, all PDPs associated with all graphic views are scanned on the target system (control system) at the same time by default. This uses fewer communication resources and speeds up the initialization of a new graphic view, since all the required values are already known. – Update PDPs per graphic view (checkbox activated) Alternatively, the "Order per view" (update per view) option can be activated. In this case, only process data points required for the active graphic view are scanned on the server. If there are a large number of PDPs to update, this can be the more efficient method. Phoenix PC WORX Project Settings

In this section of the dialog box, you specify where WebVisit gets its variables from. There are two options: 1. The PC WorX project is located on the same PC as WebVisit. • Use "Browse" to select the path to the PC WorX project file (*.mwt) in the "*.mwt path" field. If the PC WorX project has been installed and named as standard in accordance with Section A, "Appendix: Example Project in PC WorX", you will find the file under "C:\Programs\ PHOENIX CONTACT\Software Suite ...\Projects\qs_webvisit.mwt". Entering this path updates the path for the pdd.csv file automatically. 2. The PC with WebVisit contains only one file with the required variables (pdd.csv) generated using PC WorX. • Use "Browse" to select the path to the pdd.csv file in the "pdd.csv path" field.

4.4 •

Generating a Graphic View

To add an empty graphic view to the project, select the "Project... Add to Project... New..." menu command.

The editor suggests a file name comprising the project name, a consecutive number and the extension *.teq (in this case "quickstart1.teq"). • Use the suggested file name or edit it and then confirm your entry with "Add".

4.5

Inserting Graphic Visualization Objects

You can now insert your graphic visualization objects. You can use the items on the toolbar for graphic icons to do this (see "The WebVisit User Interface" on page 3-3).

HMI With Several Graphic Views

There are two ways to generate an HMI with several graphic views. Either all the graphic views are located in a Java applet or you are working with HTML links to the various views. Several Graphic Views in a Java Applet Users generally access a single HTML page via a browser. This is generated via the "Project... Generate HTML..." menu command and is typically called ".html". This page references a Java applet, which contains the WebVisit technology and is called "IMaster.jar" (e.g., IMasterPhoenix5_00_00.jar). This applet references all graphic views (*.teq files) belonging to the HMI. This is the fastest method, since all views and the applet are loaded when first accessed. Several Graphic Views With HTML Links It is also possible to reference HTML links on other pages from the ".html" homepage. The disadvantage is that these pages are only loaded when they are called, which can lead to a delay in the display appearing. This option can be beneficial in the following cases: – Links to help files (saved as HTML) – Links to HMIs on other web servers in order to form a joint HMI – Links to other applets or pages not generated using WebVisit

Developing a Project in PC WorX

Perform the following steps in accordance with the Quick Start Guide for PC WorX.

A 2.1 • • • • • • • •

Building the Hardware Structure

Create a new project with the control system (in this case ILC 350 PN Version >01/4.6F/1.41) and save it with the name "qs_webvisit". Adapt the project information as appropriate for your project and assign the "Domain Postfix" (in this case qs.de). Check/modify the IP settings for the controller (in this case 192.168.0.2). If required, assign an IP address to the PROFINET IO controller. Read in the PROFINET IO devices. If required, assign the PROFINET device names and IP addresses. Read in the INTERBUS. In order to detect any errors, compile the project once the bus topology has been completed.

The structure of the bus configuration is illustrated in Figure A-2.

Creating the Program

A 2.2.1

Program Description

The program is created in function block diagram (FBD). The program controls the following sequence: On an edge change from FALSE to TRUE at input IN, a timer (TP function block) generates a pulse, which is output at output Q for the duration PT. The associated output is set for this time. The state of the output is indicated at the corresponding status LED. The elapsed time is output at output ET. If IN switches from FALSE to TRUE for a second time while the pulse is still active (within PT), this does not affect the duration of the pulse generated at output Q. This signal is ignored. If a TRUE signal is present at output Q, the ROL function block is activated, which rotates the operands associated with input parameter IN bit-by-bit to the left. This means that for an initial value equal to 1, the associated outputs (e.g., OUT1 to OUT16 of a 16-bit module) switch in succession from FALSE to TRUE and back again. This state change is indicated by a "chasing light" at the corresponding status LEDs. Once the pulse time has elapsed, the output that indicates the presence of the pulse and the chasing light are switched off. Independent of this, inputs IN1 and IN2 are logically ANDed. IN1 and IN2 map the status of the inputs to which the toggle switches are connected. The result of ANDing is output at output OUT. Additional variable compared to the example program in the Quick Start Guide for PC WorX: The "Manual" variable is also used to facilitate editing in the program of entries made in the visualization. The variable is ANDed with inputs IN1 and IN2. The result is output at output OUT. A 2.2.2

Programming

Programming of this example, excluding the Manual variable, is described in detail in the Quick Start Guide for PC WorX. First, proceed in accordance with the example. Then insert the Manual variable afterward. When creating variables that are to be visualized in WebVisit, please note: – Create the variables as global variables (VAR_GLOBAL or VAR_EXTERNAL). – Activate the "PDD" checkbox.

If it has not already been done when the V0 variable was created, set the initial value for the V0 variable to 1.

Inserting the Additional Manual Variable: • • • • •

Switch to the "IEC programming" workspace. Select the "AND" function block. Click the right mouse button to open the context menu for the function block. Open the "Object Properties..." menu. Select the IN2 formal parameter and click on "Duplicate".

You will thus obtain the IN3 formal parameter. • Double-click the new input on the function block and specify its properties. Set the initial value to 1. Provided that no entries have been made in the visualization, in this case OUT is only dependent on the positions of the two switches (variables IN2 and IN3).
