Hardware Configuration

Before the parameterization of the functionality, the target system must be configured with the
required system elements:
·
Master control element
·
Processing and communication elements
·
Protocol elements
·
Peripheral elements
Note
The firmware codes of the corresponding system elements must exist in the target system
You find an overview of the available system elements and their technical specification in the
SICAM AK 3 System Description.
The configuration takes place with the tool "OPM II" via the menu items Tools | System
technique and Tools | Templates Overview .
By dragging the system elements of the system SICAM AK 3 from the Template Overview on-
to the respective target system in the system technique, the corresponding system elements
are added with default parameters.
When deleting a system element, all the corresponding settings are rejected in the system
technique.
The changed hardware configuration must be converted with the tool "OPM II", menu
Destination systems | SICAM RTUs transformer , and subsequently transmitted to the
target system with the tool "Load parameters", to become effective.
During startup the target system checks if the mechanically installed I/O modules match the
parameterization.
Exceptions with Usage of SICAM TM I/O Modules
With usage of I/O modules first of all the higher-level peripheral element (USIO66, TCIO66)
must be equipped. Afterwards I/O modules can be dragged onto the peripheral element.
When deleting an I/O module, all the corresponding settings are rejected in the system tech-
nique.
Note
The configuration in the "OPM II" must match the mechanically installed I/O modules.
If you remove an I/O module mechanically, you must delete it also in the "OPM II". If you do not adapt the
configuration in the "OPM II", the target system detects this I/O module as failed (error indication).
If you add an I/O module mechanically without adapting the configuration in the "OPM II", this has no
effects. In this case, the added I/O module is ignored.
