3 Foreword Foreword The technology template A technology template is a software object or a code block with defined interfaces, which can easily be integrated into other software projects without extra work and which performs a precisely defined task in these projects. Support for the technology template Support services in the scope of the Customer Support can only be provided for the unaltered technology template. If the code is changed, it is no longer possible to provide support for the technology template.

5 Requirements 1 Requirements 1.1 Target group The technology template is intended for all programmers and users of technology CPUs who easily and quickly want to realize an error display for the technology objects and technology function blocks in a technology CPU. 1.2 Objective and purpose of this technology template When operating the technology CPU, states occur repeatedly in which warning and error messages are output by the technology objects of the integrated technology or during the technology function calls. These messages can only be identified by a specific monitoring of the corresponding I/Os in the technology data blocks or at the outputs of the technology function blocks. Figure 1-1 Identification and interpretation of technology error messages? Error Messages technology template Error message + additional information In addition, the displayed warning and error messages are communicated to the user in the form of a hexadecimal error code. An easy and quick interpretation of the warning or error message and the localization of the cause of the error is very difficult via these error codes. The Error Messages technology template can now be used for monitoring error events occurring at technology objects and technology function block calls. If an error occurs, the technology template indicates the cause of the error via a plain-text display and provides additional information for the localization of the cause of the error. V3.0 Issue 09/18/06 5/14

6 Requirements 1.3 Properties of the Error Messages technology template Properties considered during the realization The properties listed below were considered during the realization of the template: Monitoring of technology objects The technology data blocks of axes, cam functions, cam switches, measuring inputs and external encoders can be monitored and occurring errors can be displayed in the plain-text display. Monitoring of technology function calls Monitoring of technology function block calls, e.g. FB 401 MC_Power, FB 402 MC_Reset, etc. and indication of occurring error events in the plain-text display. Included warning and error messages For the plain-text display of the warning and error messages the text library of the technology template contains all messages up to version V3.0 of the S7-Technology software package Performance limits of the technology template The following performance limits have to be considered when using the Error Messages template: Only one error or warning message Only one error or warning message can be displayed for each technology object and each technology function call. No message archive An archive for storing the occurring error messages does not exist in the Error Messages technology template. If required, the occurring error and warning messages have to be archived by the used display system (e.g. of the STEP 7 function CPU Messages ) Requirements Operating the Error Messages technology template together with a technology CPU requires that the following system function blocks exist in the controller: SFC 18 ALARM_S For the output of ALARM_S messages SFC 24 TEST_DB For checking data blocks V3.0 Issue 09/18/06 6/14

7 Operating Principle 1.4 Restrictions of the technology template The following properties were not considered during the realization of the template and consequently exclude an unaltered use of the template in a self-created user program: HMI system must support ALARM_S The Error Messages template can only be used with HMI systems such as WinCC flexible or ProTool/Pro which support the ALARM_S message system. 2 Operating Principle The monitoring of error events and the display of the error messages in the plain-text display by the Error Messages technology template is performed according to the following operating principle: 2.1 Monitoring of technology objects A technology object is monitored with the aid of the function block FB 511 ShowErrDB. Figure 2-1 Monitoring a technology object S7 user program Technology DB Error code TDB_No FB 511 ShowErrDB To monitor a technology object, it is required that the function block ShowErrDB is called once during an OB1 cycle. The technology object is referenced by the number of the technology data block assigned to the technology object. The function block independently monitors the storage location for the error code () included in the technology DB. If an error code is entered by the technology object in this location, this error code is detected by the function block FB 511 ShowErrDB and displayed. V3.0 Issue 09/18/06 7/14

8 Operating Principle 2.2 Monitoring of technology function blocks A technology function block is monitored with the aid of the function block FB 510 ShowErrFB. Figure 2-2 Monitoring a technology function call S7 user program Technology FB Error Status Error code Error FB 510 ShowErrFB Note To monitor a technology function call, it is required that a ShowErrFB function block is assigned to each technology FB to be monitored. The output signals for the existence of an error and for the error code () are transmitted to ShowErrFB. If a present error is detected via the Error input of FB 510 ShowErrFB, the error code transmitted in the is evaluated and displayed. The error code of a technology function call is only displayed as long as the Execute bit of the PLC-Open block is set to True. If the Execute bit is cleared, the is no longer output and the error is no longer displayed on the display. 2.3 Display of error messages The errors are not only displayed via their error code but two text libraries in the template ensure that occurring error and warning messages can be transferred to a plain-text display. In addition, further information for the localization of the cause of the error is available to the user via an additional text output. V3.0 Issue 09/18/06 8/14

To use the function blocks from the technology template, it is required that Assign unique message numbers CPU-wide is activated in the STEP 7 project. Figure 3-1 Activation of the CPU-wide message numbers V3.0 Issue 09/18/06 9/14

10 Operation of the Technology Template Note Assign unique message numbers CPU-wide also has to be activated in already existing projects. For notes on changing this setting, please refer to the STEP 7 online help. 3.2 Integrating the text libraries into a STEP 7 project Copying the text libraries to the STEP 7 project The Error Messages technology template includes two text libraries for the plain-text display of the error codes: 317T_ErrorText text library This library includes the error messages corresponding to the error code. 317T_ErrorDescription text library This library includes further error information on the respective error code and notes for locating and correcting the cause of the error. To integrate the text libraries into the STEP 7 project, it is required that the complete Text Libraries folder is copied to the project Integrating the text libraries into the HMI To achieve a message display on HMIs, the text libraries have to be integrated into the HMIs. This requires that the HMIs are configured in the STEP 7 project which includes the text libraries to be integrated. A message display via ALARM_S must be set up and configured in the HMI. Integrating the text libraries requires a recompilation of the HMI. Note If the text libraries are changed, the HMI also has to be recompiled to apply the changes to the message display of the user interface. V3.0 Issue 09/18/06 10/14

11 Operation of the Technology Template 3.3 Block interface FB 510 ShowErrFB For monitoring the technology function calls by the function block FB 510 ShowErrFB, the following interfaces are available at the block: EventID Error FB 510 ShowErrFB FB_ Table 3-1 Interfaces of FB 510 ShowErrFB Parameter Data type Initial value Description Input parameter EventID DWORD 0 The EventID is used to assign the error message by the ALARM_S message system. It is automatically assigned by STEP 7 when the block is integrated and must not be changed by the user. Error BOOL False This input signals an error. WORD 0 The includes the error code and is the reference to the error message to be displayed. If the Error input is set to True, the is transferred to the message system and a plaintext error message is displayed. Output parameter FB_ INT 0 If an error occurs during error message processing, an error code is output. V3.0 Issue 09/18/06 11/14

12 Operation of the Technology Template FB 511 ShowErrDB For monitoring the technology objects by the function block FB 511 ShowErrDB, the following interfaces are available at the block: EventID TDB_Nr IgnoreWarnings FB 511 ShowErrDB FB_ Table 3-2 Interfaces of FB 511 ShowErrDB Parameter Data type Initial value Description Input parameter EventID DWORD 0 The EventID is used to assign the error message by the ALARM_S message system. It is automatically assigned by STEP 7 when the block is integrated and must not be changed by the user. TDB_Nr INT 0 The data block number of the technology object to be monitored or the technology data block assigned to this technology object has to be indicated as a reference. IgnoreWarnings BOOL False If this input is set to True, only error messages of the technology objects are displayed. Warning messages are suppressed. Output parameter FB_ INT 0 If an error occurs during processing the error message, this error is signaled via an error code. V3.0 Issue 09/18/06 12/14
