Siemens SIMATIC BATCH Operating Manual page 773

The parameters are taken from the basic engineering for steps with a link to EOP, EPH or for
operator dialogs and from the library object for library sequences. Parameters can be created
and deleted in the other objects.
In the formula category, you can specify the parameters that are not specific to the procedure
as data structures. In the formula, you enter the actual recipe values for the data structure.
Button for showing and hiding table columns
After the "Unit of measure" column listed below, there is an empty column with a button for
hiding or showing the following columns. This allows you to make the Parameters tab clearer
and simpler.
Button for printing parameters
Using a button in the table view, you can open a shortcut menu for printing the displayed
parameters. If you click the Print button in the shortcut menu, the table view along with the
parameters is output immediately to the default printer set in Windows.
If you click Print..., a Windows dialog opens in which you can select another printer set up in
Windows. After making a selection, click "OK" to print the parameters.
List:
The following column titles are displayed:
● Name: For recipe steps to which an EOP, EPH or library reference is assigned, the name
is taken from the configuration (ES/BatchCC) and cannot be changed. You can specify a
name for the other steps.
● Low limit: For steps that are linked to an EOP, EPH or library sequence, the low limit is
adopted from the ES or from the library object. It is unit-dependent. The limits are adopted
for the higher-level steps linked to the source or destination.
● Low recipe limit: input of the low recipe limit. The low recipe limit must be within the
engineering limits. Values outside this range are marked in red during input and are not
permitted. If you click the X button, the entered value is reset to the original limit from the
ES. The setpoint for the amount of input material must then be within the recipe limits.
Otherwise, the validation signals an error. The low recipe limit is not unit-dependent, but
rather quantity-dependent. The recipe limits are adopted for the higher-level steps linked
to the source or destination.
● Value: The specific recipe value is entered here. When linked with the data source, this
value is fetched from the higher-level and can only be modified there.
