Generating the variable definition file

3.29.7.1.2

Generating and importing a new signal list

Prerequisites
Execution
System- and communication configuring D7-SYS - SIMADYN D
Edition 12.2003
The variable definition file is a text file, which must be generated by the
user. The variable definition file consists of two defined header lines (1.
and 2.), followed by the assignment of symbolic names to the SIMADYN
D connection path names. The symbolic names can be freely selected,
but should be the same as those used in the WinCC text fields to ensure
transparency.
Excerpt from the variable definition file
E.g.: winccvar.txt
1.) [VDM:wincc]
2.) [PN:A000_1,C:\wincc\vardatei]
3.) MOTOR_EIN,ANBIND.CI.CCV
MOTOR_AUS,ANBIND.CI.YTS
Before generating and importing the signal list, the SIMADYN D PMC
driver must be installed in the WinCC configuring software.
• Call-up the WinCC configuring software
• Click-on tag management
• Click-on the menu item "Add new driver"
• Select the SIMADYN D PMC Ethernet.chn
If no WinCC configuring software is started before ADRIMP starts, when
importing the signal list, the last configuring software which was used, is
used.
• Call-up ADRIMP
• Select the "File" menu item
• Select the "Probi" menu item
• Search for the variable definition file ( e.g.: winvar.txt)
• Define the generation path
• Generate the signal list (e.g.: wincc.txt)
• Exit Probi
