Setting Up The Workbench; Setting Up I/O - MultiTrode MultiSmart Installation & Operation Manual

24.1 Setting up the Workbench

Once the workbench has been installed and started, you can open a new project. Give the project a
meaningful name and comment, and select the Prjmonoresource template. You will then need to import
the MultiSmart PLC definition, which defines the I/O and pre-defined function blocks for the MultiSmart. To
do this, click on:
File->Import->Plc Definition
Select the file MultiSmart. txt. This file is included with each release of the MultiSmart.
Once the MultiSmart definition has been imported, highlight the Resource window and right click. Then
select Properties. The name and comment of this resource can be modified to something more
meaningful. Then select the Target/Code tab. In the Target combo-box, select MULTISMART. In the
Settings tab, it is recommended to change the Cycle Timing (ms) to 1000 or more, unless execution
of the resource is particularly time critical. It s also possible to set up security for the project, if so desired.

24.2 Setting up I/O

In order to be able to access I/O Points within ISaGRAF programs, the I/O devices must first be defined.
Click on the I/O Wiring icon. Then click on the Add Device icon. You will see the following devices:
Device Name
multismart: pc: MultiSmartPCboard(* *)
multismart: pc: MultiSmartMPboard (* *)
multismart: pc: adam6017: ADAM6017(* *)
multismart: pc: adam6050: ADAM6050(* *)
multismart: pc: adam6051: ADAM6051(* *)
multismart: pc: acromag961: ACROMAG961(* *)
multismart: pc: acromag983: ACROMAG983(* *)
Table 30 – ISaGRAF Device Names
You can select the desired device. For example, make the following selection:
multistmart : pc multiSmartPCboard(* *)
Then expand the new device and then expand Parameters. There are two parameters defined for this
device:
1. Unit – The unit number (1 by default)
2. TopBoard – Whether this unit represents to top (1) or bottom (0) board (1 by default)
These parameters can be modified, for example, to define the pump control board to be the bottom board, or
to define a board on unit 2. Additional devices of the same type can also be defined, with difference
parameters.
Now make the following selection:
multismart : mp: MultiSmartMPboard(* *)
The same tow parameters exist for this device. The only difference is that the topBoard parameter for this
device defaults to 0 (which defined it to be the bottom board, by default).
