Dynamic unit parameters

Core statement
Dynamic unit parameters allow you to define and evaluate properties of units. They are used
as parameter steps and as transitions in basic recipes, and are evaluated or further used during
the runtime of a batch. SIMATIC BATCH transfers parameter values to the unit and can react
to them during batch execution.
In transitions you define conditions that must be met by the value of a variable. This means
you can configure transition conditions in the recipe sequence in which, for example, unit
candidates are selected and allocated.
You can use dynamic parameters in two ways in SIMATIC BATCH batch control:
● Units are given properties in form of setpoints during batch control.
● Unit selection during batch control takes place by means of conditions, for example, in
which the dynamic unit properties are queried in form of process values.
