Function
With HMI Advanced 6.3 you can also edit the PLC information using
symbols. Preretirement is that the symbol tables and texts for the
symbols in the PLC project have been suitably prepared and make
available in HMI.
Other information
The program PlcSymbolsGenerator.exe and its description are
located in the PLC tool box. It creates the files with symbols and
language-dependent texts in the representation required for the HMI.
·
Save the files created with PlcSymbolsGenerator.exe in the
Services operating area under path: Diagnostics/PLC Data
(F:\DH\DG.DIR\PLC.DIR\ ) with the following predefined
names and extensions:
PlcSym.SNH
PlcSym_<language extension>.SNT
· NC RESET or HMI reboot for file activation
·
(For M:N configurations only): There must be an entry which
makes the symbols available in netnames.ini for each
addressable NCU. See IAM, IM4.
If the texts (symbol comments) are stored for multiple languages, you
can also change language to work with texts in the other languages.
