Automatic parameter assignment of the BATCH blocks

Conceptual overview
In the BATCH configuration dialog, the BATCH blocks used from the basic engineering (SFC
types or BATCH interface blocks) have parameters assigned automatically.
The elements and blocks for both modes (AS-based and PC-based) are briefly listed below
and their functions described.
Unit blocks: UNIT_PLC replaces IUNIT
For AS-based mode, you will need to replace the IUNIT block with the UNIT_PLC block. The
UNIT_PLC block contains the functionality of the IUNIT interface block including the AS-based
runtime system.
Automatic parameter setting of BATCH blocks in the BATCH configuration dialog
The SIMATIC BATCH configuration dialog reads and writes parameters at the blocks during
configuration:
● Determination of all instance data blocks (IDB).
● Writing information to the corresponding inputs of the runtime blocks
● Reading the parameter addresses of the SFC instances
● Creating NetPro S7 connections
● Creating equipment properties DBs (EQM) using the information from the equipment file
(EQM)
● Copying the template CFCs
● Parameterizing the blocks in the template CFCs
