Data iport fro hardware plan Backup (copressed) and restore 2.1 Function and Perforance Characteristics in Coparison with PROGRAF AS+ The progra package PROGRAF AS+/NT is able to run under the operation systes Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, 2000 and XP. It is copatible in functionality as well as in data structure to the predecessor product PROGRAF AS+ which was able to run only under Microsoft Windows 3.1, i.e. the data can be processed with both versions alternatively. Deterined by the new operating syste all probles with the available DOS eory known with PROGRAF AS+ are no longer applicable with PROGRAF AS+/NT. Copyright SIEMENS AG All Rights Reserved.

4 3 Application PROGRAF AS+/NT relieves the well-tried engineering tool PROGRAF AS+ which could only run under the operating syste Microsoft Windows 3.1. It is copatible in functionality as well as in data structure. Data copatibility eans that all user data structures created with PROGRAF AS+/NT and PROGRAF AS+ are identically. Because of this all user data created with PROGRAF AS+ can be processed by PROGRAF AS+/NT and reverse. PROGRAF AS+ has been released for the autoation systes AS 230 / AS 230K, AS 235, AS 235 K, AS 235 H as well as AS 388/TM and AS 488/TM Iportant inforation / restrictions: Using version F03.05 or G01.07 of the syste software guarantees unrestricted operation of PROGRAF AS+ in the AS 235 syste. All AS systes fro variant E onwards with loadable syste software ust be upgraded to a greater/equal version F03.02 of the syste software if loading sequences are to be loaded via TTY or bus into the AS. The previous AS 230 variants B, C, and D perit decopilation of the AS structure. Online configuration of these variants is only possible fro variant D3 onwards. The ain eory dup of variants B, C, or D ust be converted into the forat of AS 230 E (or higher) as PROGRAF AS+ can only read AS diskette forats fro variant E onwards. Online configuration and loading via TTY eulator is only possible fro variant D3 onwards. The following settings are required: Baud rate: 1200 bits/s With screen updating With stop on error A axiu baud rate of 4800 bits/s is possible fro AS 230 / 230 K variant E onwards. It can happen in older AS structures that decopilation is aborted as the structure contains incopatible structure eleents that ust first be eliinated in the AS (e.g. using old UFB naes as SFB naes; identical block naes; identical eleent naes,...). The decopilation log contains inforation about errors in the AS structure. Any inforation arked by F: prevents decopilation. Copyright SIEMENS AG All Rights Reserved. Page 4 of 22

5 4 Installation Guidelines 4.1 Device Configuration Personal Coputer with: Graphic interface card with a inial resolution of 1024 x 768 pixel (at colors) Colour onitor with high resolution (at least with 19" screen for ergonoic reasons) Disk drive 3,5" Disk drive 5,25" (for reading AS disks) Printer with PostScript Software: Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 or XP (not included in delivery of PROGRAF AS+/NT!) 4.2 Installation The setup progra SETUP.EXE of PROGRAF AS+/NT is located on the delivery CD in the directory \SW\PROGRAF. It ust be started within Windows NT in the Explorer by double clicking on Setup.exe. The next actions then are described in the specified enus. Order of events: After the installation language has been selected, the setup for PROGRAF AS+/NT is started. Selection of the target drive for the PROGRAF syste directories (dr:\prograf\...) The setup for installing the dongle driver is started (Hardlock). After that you are asked, wether a N-AT or N-PCI interface odule is existing. If not, the following points of the installation procedure will be skipped, i.e. the setup will be finished without any further essage. The next action will be the installation of the workstation (last point). If a CS 275 bus interface is existing, the setup for the N-AT/N-PCI driver is started (NAT-NPCI). Selection of the interface type (N-AT or N-PCI) Input of the hardware (I/O) address for the N-AT interface odule (appears only if N-AT is selected, with N-PCI it is deterined by the driver itself). If this I/O address should be changed later, the driver has to be deinstalled, and installed again via \SW\NAT-NPCI\Setup.exe. Then the setup progra requires a reboot of the PC for activating the driver. This is necessary for the following TMSS server installation. After this reboot the device anager will be started autoatically, if the N-PCI interface odule has been selected. With this the N-PCI driver has to be activated as described within the docuent NAT_NPCI_en.pdf. Copyright SIEMENS AG All Rights Reserved. Page 5 of 22

6 After this the setup for the counication service TM_Server has to started in the directory \SW\TM_Server. Attention: Drive and path given during installation ust not be changed! After installing the counication service the setup asks, whether the service should be activated. In this case the service adinistration will be started after terinating the setup. There the Tss Service has to be started. Note: When using the bus type PROFIBUS-TM instead of CS 275, the TMSS.INI file has to be odified before starting this service (please see chapter 5.2.2). Finally a PROGRAF AS workstation has to be installed. For this the progra dr:\prograf\system\setup\setup.exe has to be started. This offers also installation guidelines. This inforation for installation ay also directly be retrieved in the PROGRAF AS+/NT startup enu under Help/Installation Guidelines. Notes: For installing the driver on Windows NT, 2000 or XP adinistrator rights were needed. A previous version 4.0x has not to be de-installed before. If the installation progra has found a previous version of the N-AT/N-PCI driver, the user is asked, whether this should be deinstalled and replaced by the new version. Further notes for the NAT-NPCI driver you can find in the docuent NAT_NPCI_en.pdf, for the counication service in TM_Server_en.pdf (within the DOK directory on the CD).

7 4.3 Deinstallation To reove the software package PROGRAF AS+/NT fro your PC copletely, following steps have to be taken: First the TMSS counication service has to be deactivated: Double-click with the Explorer in directory \Sieens\TM_Werkzeuge on the file _Reove Tss.bat or alternatively start the DOS Coand Propt, select directory \Sieens\TM_Werkzeuge, and type the coand 'TMSS.exe reove'. Open the dialog "Start Å Settings Å Control Panel Í Add/Reove Progras". Choose "PROGRAF AS+ /NT V4.03" and reove it. With this you will be asked, whether both fonts installed by PROGRAF AS+/NT should be reoved too. If this isn't wanted now (because they are used by ASBEDIEN/NT for exaple), the fonts can be deleted later on fro the Windows syste directory with the Explorer (right ouse key / Delete): Fonts\TELEPERMM.FNT Fonts\TELEPERMMTERMINAL.FNT Choose "Hardlock Device Driver" and reove it (Selection Autoatic). Choose "TM_Server" and reove it. Choose "NAT-NPCI" and reove it. Finally the PC should be rebooted. Afterwards the PROGRAF directories (Syste and User) and Sieens\Werkzeuge have to be cleaned possibly. Copyright SIEMENS AG All Rights Reserved. Page 7 of 22

8 5 Interface Modules PROGRAF AS+/NT supports the new bus interface odules N-PCI (for syste bus CS 275) and CP 5613 (for syste bus PROFIBUS-TM) designated for PCI slots as well as the old bus interface odules N-AT (for syste bus CS 275) and CP 5412 (A2) (for syste bus PROFIBUS-TM) designated for ISA slots. Attention: The interface odule CP 5412 (A1) is no longer supported with Windows NT, 2000 and XP! The interface odules for the CS 275 and the PROFIBUS-bus ay be inserted in the sae coputer. PROGRAF AS+/NT activates only one of the interface odules. The selection is carried out in the startup level in the enu Options / Busparaeter... : ΠSelect button CS 275 or PROFIBUS-TM ΠAt CS 275 the bus and station address are read fro the interface odule, and then displayed. ΠAt PROFIBUS-TM only the station address given within the setup of the SIMATIC NET driver is deterined autoatically. The bus nuber for PROFIBUS-TM has to be set by the user in this dialog. 5.1 Linking to CS 275 For linking to the CS 275 one of the odules N-AT or N-PCI has to be used. The driver installed with PROGRAF AS+/NT addresses the N-AT via the I/O address entered during installation. This ust correspond to the I/O address selected on the N-AT. The N-AT requires no interrupt. The N-AT bus paraeters (e.g. station address) are set on the odule with switches and jupers, as for the I/O address. The settings for the N-PCI are copletely read by the driver fro the odule. 5.2 Linking to PROFIBUS-TM Use the software package belonging to the CP 5613 or CP 5412 (A2) odule to connect the odule to the PROFIBUS-TM. This instructions do not replace the Installation Instructions or Product Inforation of these SIMATIC NET products Counication between PROGRAF AS+/NT and CP 5412 / CP 5613 The CP 5412 interface odule is addressed via a driver fro the software package of the odule. The driver is installed in addition to PROGRAF AS+/NT. No paraeter settings except the bus nuber are required in PROGRAF AS+/NT for counication with the driver. But soe paraeters for the counication between the driver and the CP 5412 interface odule have to be set outside of PROGRAF AS+/NT. Copyright SIEMENS AG All Rights Reserved. Page 8 of 22

9 Settings for CP 5412: During installation the following package has to be installed for the CP 5412: PB DP The application access point CP_L2_1: CP5412A2(PROFIBUS) has to be selected within Syste Settings Å Set PG/PC Interface. The bus profile Universal (DP/FMS), the transission rate 1.5 Mbit/s, and the own station address have to be selected within Properties / PROFIBUS of CP5412A2(PROFIBUS). An IRQ interrupt and a DP-RAM address are set with switches and jupers on the CP5412-A1 interface odule. The bus paraeters are set with software tools. Seen fro PROGRAF AS+/NT the bus paraeters for PROFIBUS-TM are part of the interface odule which cannot be odified by PROGRAF AS+/NT either than juper settings on the N-AT (excepting the bus nuber). Settings for CP 5613: During installation the following package has to be installed for the CP 5613: PB CP 5613/5614 (DP-Base). The application access point CP_L2_1: CP5613_5614(PROFIBUS) has to be selected within Syste Settings Å Set PG/PC Interface. The bus profile Universal (DP/FMS) has to be selected within Properties / PROFIBUS of CP5613_5614(PROFIBUS) Setting TMSS Counication Service to PROFIBUS-TM The settings for PROFIBUS-TM take place in the TMSS.INI file (in the directory..\sieens\tm_werkzeuge): # Paraeter bustyp = CS: CS275 bus interface # = PB: PROFIBUS-TM interface bustyp = PB # Paraeter busnr = n: Bus nuber n with n >= 0 and n <= 7 busnr = 0 # Paraeter busadr = : Bus address with >= 0 and <= 99 busadr = 99 (see also chapter 2 in TM_Server_en.pdf). 5.3 Interrupts In previous releases the IRQ10 had to be occupied by N-AT in order to operate N-AT with PROGRAF AS+. Fro the PROGRAF AS+ release V3.00 onwards the counication with the N-AT functions without interrupt. To avoid superfluous interrupts reove the N-AT interrupt juper (juper on IRQ socket X100), if there is no other application using the N- AT interrupt. The CP5412 requires an interrupt for the counication with the driver (e.g. INT5). Copyright SIEMENS AG All Rights Reserved. Page 9 of 22

10 6 Reoved Errors 6.1 Errors already reoved with V Transfer fro Library If a odule already included in the current autoation syste is transfered in fro a library again, no odify flag will be set. By that the odified odule will not been taken into a delta loading sequence. Correction: The load flag will be set always when transfering in a odule. TML/STEP Editor If the internal block nuber has been changed by the enue function no odify flag is set, i.e. the odified odule will not been taken into a delta loading sequence. Correction: The odify flag will be set now. TML Structogra When generating a structogra (in the TML editor or during docuentation) an access error occurs, if the TML odule includes two iediately succeeding PAGE instructions. Correction: Structogra generation corrected. Transfer Out of Library When transfering out TML, STEP or LAYOUT odules, it ay happen that at a certain odule length an additional character will be written into the library file at the end of the odule. This will cause an error during transfering in. Correction: Transfer out of library corrected. TML and STEP Editor After a syntax check, with V2.x/V3.x the cursor was placed on the first incorrect line of the odule. This function, and the search for the next error is not available. Correction: After opening a odule the cursor is placed on the second line now. Changing the first line (D,) is no longer possible. After a syntax check the cursor will be placed on the first error essage. The enu ite Search Next Error is active now, i.e. with this the cursor can be placed on the next error essage within the odule. Copyright SIEMENS AG All Rights Reserved. Page 10 of 22

11 ORPA Editor At very large ORPAs not all eleents will be displayed if the block also includes field eleents. When selecting indirect naed paraeters with variable paraeter nubers 100 (e.g. 100:0) an error box will appear. Correction: Now all eleents will be displayed. Also eleents with variable paraeter naes and index 100 can now be selected. 6.2 Errors reoved with V4.03 Loading Sequence Generator Sporadically the loading sequence generated after selecting user function blocks via a listbox is epty. Correction: Selection dialog processing corrected. Loading into AS Before loading an AS RAM or a load sequence into the AS a warning box is displayed with the question whether the loading should really be done. This box contains as sybol only a question ark. But at PROGRAF AS+ V2.x/V3.x a red STOP sign was used as that action ay affect a running AS syste. Correction: The essage box now contains a red warning sybol. Iport Batch If only a odule coent should be odified via an iport batch, selecting the TML/ STEP odule (e.g. A,STEP,TEST) without any further lines of code will cause an error box OS error 0x0002 during transferring in, and the odule will be deleted afterwards. Correction: Iport function corrected. Docuentation: Generate and Print If only charts has been selected as docuentation objects the printer initialization get stuck, if the Generate and Print button was pushed. Correction: Progra coordination corrected. TMSS Counication Service Because of several corrections relevant for PCS 7/TM-OS a new version V1.5 of TM_Server will be installed now.

12 7 Extended Functions CFC Editor: Printing During printing all used sheets of the current chart will be printed, i.e. up to 6 sheets. Extension: Additionally you have now the possibility to print only a single sheet of a chart, i.e. only the sheet currently selected in the CFC. For that a new line Print Current Sheet exists now in the CFC Editor under the enu ite Docu. With this new enu ite only the currently selected sheet will be printed. But this function is only be enabled in single page display, not in the overview. STEP Logic Diagra When displaying a logic diagra on the screen, each sheet is shared in two halfs which can only be shown alternately. Besides that the coent and chart coluns are not be displayed. Extension: Now the user can select whether he wants the logic diagra of the STEP odules to be displayed as before or in the sheet s general view (analogous to the print version). For that a new line Logic Diagra Sheet View exists now in the STEP Editor under the enu ite Docu in addition to the enu ite Show Logic Diagra. With this new enu ite the logic diagra will be displayed analogous to the print view. Loading AS RAM into AS Before loading an AS RAM into the AS (that will cause the AS processing to be stopped) a warning box is displayed with the question whether the loading should really be done. But as this box looks like other boxes (e.g. for reading the AS RAM) it ay happen that an AS will be stopped and loaded unintentionally. This ay cause large daage in the custoer s plant. Extension: For increasing the security the loading procedure has been odified as follows: After pushing the Load AS RAM button the essage box Load selected AS RAM into the AS? will appear as before. But after pushing the Yes button a new dialog box Confir Load Procedure will appear now. In this box the user has to enter the text OK (in capital letters) to release the Load button. First after entering OK and pressing the enabled Load button, the AS RAM will be loaded into the AS. Copyright SIEMENS AG All Rights Reserved. Page 12 of 22

13 Batch Capability Fro soe users cae the deand, that all autoation systes belonging to a plant should be read and decopiled by an order (batch) file autoatically, i.e. without any user operation and acknowledge (e.g. overnight). Extension: For these orders two new call paraeters are existing now: /ARB dr Project RAM_file Reads the AS which has been set within the project via bus (by this the RAM file will be overwritten without checkback) /DBG dr Project RAM_file Decopiles the RAM file into the project (with delta list and saving) Both orders have following paraeters: dr Drive, on which the project is stored (dr:\prograf\as_daten) Project Nae of the autoation syste (...\Project.235) RAM_file Nae of the AS RAM file (...\RAM.ANW) The executed orders will be reported in the PRAS_BAT.LOG file together with the result of each order. The result is either OK or an error essage. The log file is stored in the directory of the batch file. Exaple for such a batch file: C:\PROGRAF\Syste\PROGRAFX.exe /ARB D AS1 AS_RAM_1 C:\PROGRAF\Syste\PROGRAFX.exe /DBG D AS1 AS_RAM_1 C:\PROGRAF\Syste\PROGRAFX.exe /ARB D AS2 AS_RAM_2 C:\PROGRAF\Syste\PROGRAFX.exe /DBG D AS2 AS_RAM_2 These orders will cause the following: The AS set within the project D:\PROGRAF\AS_DATEN\AS1.235 is read via bus into the file D:\PROGRAF\AS_DATEN\AS1.235\ASHSP\AS_RAM_1.ANW. Then the AS syste AS1.235 is decopiled (with generating a delta list and autoatic saving). Afterwards the AS set within the project D:\PROGRAF\AS_DATEN\AS2.235 is read (target file D:\PROGRAF\AS_DATEN\AS2.235\ASHSP\AS_RAM_2.ANW). Finally the AS syste AS2.235 is decopiled and saved.

14 8 Syste Features / Restrictions AS syste software D variant / faulty odules There are probles with loading faulty odules in D variants. The ode With stop on error ust therefore be selected to be able to issue F; to acknowledge the AS error essage if a faulty odule is detected, and to continue the loading procedure. Without this input the AS will delete the faulty odules if D variants are concerned. Syste blocks without ORPA, such as UHR, KLOE... These block types are decopilated but ust not be transferred into the AS by total loading. They ust be anually reoved fro the loading sequence and transferred in the AS via a reloadable diskette. Alternatively, delta loading ay be used for continuing work. These block types will then not be contained in the loading sequence, and need not be reoved anually. Interconnections after disabling eleents Interconnections after disabling eleents should not be perfored (see note in Chapter of the AS description, Eleent instructions for deliiting internal paraeters), and are therefore not supported by PROGRAF AS+. Interconnections after disabling eleents are rejected during decopilation. The rejected interconnections are listed in the decopilation log. Interconnections after disabling eleents in RSK Several interconnections are perfored after the disabling eleent in the AS if the RSK standard block is interconnected with the RSB. These interconnections will be reported and rejected during decopilation. This will not interrupt the configuration cycle, however. Block types, blocks, and block eleents of the sae nae Identical eleent naes are possible in AS systes. Structures of the sae nae cannot expediently be decopiled and cannot be loaded via loading sequences. The decopiler detects identical naes and reports the in the decopilation log. A database is not created. Using the SYST.WART block or RNAM enables the user to clear up structures of identical naes. This also applies to the D variant if a eory dup has been created there that is converted to the E variant (or higher) and corrected there. Copyright SIEMENS AG All Rights Reserved. Page 14 of 22

15 ORPA with variable eleent naes A database is not created in the reverse branch if ORPA eleents are accessed whose eleent naes contain * or $ (produced by variable eleent naes). Such structures can no longer be loaded in the AS in the forward branch (syntax error when loading the odules). Such incorrect structures are produced as follows: ΠCreate an ORPA with a correct eleent naes ΠWrite the associated odules ΠAlter eleent naes in ORPA such that they contain illegal characters The correct procedure is: ΠCreate ORPAs with correct eleent naes ΠWrite the associated odules ΠEleent naes that contain * or $ should not be odified in the ORPAs but in the block instances of the type. The odules will then reain correct as they always perfor access via ORPA naes. This guarantees loadability. Decopilation / structure error of archived AS diskettes While the AS RAM is being archived onto diskettes, configuring via the second operation position or via bus is not peritted. This would produce an incoplete AS RAM dup on the diskette. During decopilation, this is indicated as a structure error, and decopilation will then be aborted. Reedy: Repeat archiving and decopile again. BATCH AS version 4.xx Using PROGRAF AS+ for decopiling this BATCH SW produces an abortion and the error essage Error in AS. The reason is that the INIT block possesses two eleents of the sae nae (HZ4,ID and HZ4,PB). Fro BATCH version 4.22 this proble is eliinated. PROGRAF AS+ Hard disk storage Ensure, when using PROGRAF AS+, that there is sufficient storage space on the hard disk. Always check the storage space available on the hard disk when a syste error essage is issued. PROGRAF AS+ needs storage space on the following drives: ΠDrive of the currently selected autoation syste for databases, docuents, AS- RAM dups, loading sequences... ΠDrive of the PROGRAF AS+ operation position for teporary data, ainly for docuentation creation ΠDrive for teporary files of the print anager for all PROGRAF AS+ print functions Copyright SIEMENS AG All Rights Reserved. Page 15 of 22

16 Create total docuentation The total docuentation of AS structures requires a large disk capacity and a powerful PostScript printer. Docuenting an AS structure of 1400 blocks requires approxiately 50 MB on the hard disk and approxiately 6000 printed pages. In addition, large spool files will be created. Visibility/invisibility codes of data blocks Data block eleents ay not be ade visible/invisible. Shortening data blocks is therefore not possible. Modifying ORPAs The ORPAs of previously defined blocks ay not be odified. Repeated access to an eleent in a odule A block eleent that is repeatedly accessed in a odule will only be referenced once in docuentation. This has been ipleented to aintain docuentation at a reasonable size. Printers/printer drivers ΠDR400_AC Sieens printer The DR400_AC Sieens printer does not perit faultless docuentation to be produced (lines, character set). ΠMIGROFAX printer driver This printer driver is not recoended for PROGRAF AS+ docuentation. There are probles with file naes that use a hyphen - as a deliiter. ΠHP Laserjet 4 PostScript ode rather than Autoatic ode ust be selected in the JOB printer enu if the HP LaserJet 4 is used. Send print data not copriized ust be selected in the POSTSCRIPT enu. ΠHP Laserjet 5 Plus The ode Send binary file in the printer control ust iperatively be switched off when the LaserJet 5 Plus is used. Tested printers: ΠHP LaserJet III PostScript DIN A4 ΠHP LaserJet 4M PostScript DIN A4 ΠHP LaserJet 4MV PostScript DIN A4 and DIN A3 ΠHP LaserJet 4050 ΠHP LaserJet 4100 Observe that printing without PostScript does not allow list docuentation printing (total docuentation) and that the printout ay not be correct.

17 Data export/iport Data is not exported if an AS structure is erely decopiled and the blocks in the CFC editor have not been allocated. Only a directory and a file structure without contents are created. An inforation box will not be displayed. The blocks in the CFC editor ust be allocated to plans if you wish to export data. Data export, bus and station address The exported data always refer to the bus and station address selected in the startup enu. A warning is not issued when OS cross-reference data is created and bus and station address have not been selected in an AS-related way in the Options / AS Coupling enu. Network drives Before any transfer PROGRAF AS+ deterines the available storage capacity. In case of network drives it can arrive that the storage space is occupied by other applications between inquiry and occupation. If the storage capacity is then not sufficient PROGRAF AS+ signals Disk full. In this state PROGRAF AS+ cannot store the current data which could be inconsistent. In this case use Reject AS to stay on the state of the last Save AS. Decopiling with SPUN Block In any AS 230/235 user structures the SPUN eory test block is existing as a reloaded user block. In recent versions of the AS syste software the SPUN is included as syste block (with AS 235 up fro issue F03.05 or G01.04). The file AS.SYS delivered with PROGRAF AS+ corresponds always with the latest version of the AS syste software. When decopiling with PROGRAF AS+ (up to V ) an error essage appears, because the SPUN block in the user RAM and the SPUN in the syste software have different type nubers (DBGEN DB error code 84E3). Reedy: Delete the reloaded SPUN block within the AS. For this syste knowledge is necessary; perhaps it has to be done via the TELEPERM M Hotline. If you want to work with an older issue of the AS syste software furtherore, please either copy a previous issue of the file AS.SYS into the directory \PROGRAF\USER or delete the file \PROGRAF\USER\AS.SYS; in this case you are asked by PROGRAF AS+ to read in an AS syste software disk. With this you can produce a file AS.SYS without SPUN syste block. Note: In AS 488/TM no SPUN block instancies ust be defined, i.e. they have to be reoved before the changeover. The SPUN block included in the AS 488/TM syste software up fro M01.06/M02.00 is only included for the reason of decopiling. Copyright SIEMENS AG All Rights Reserved. Page 17 of 22

18 9 Suppleent to the User s Guide Online configuration position; Chapter 12 PROGRAF AS+ ay be used as a central configuring console via the bus syste. The AS configuration desktop is eulated on the onitor. This is not possible with AS 230/230K, variants B, C or D. Bus counication, Chapter The default I/O address on the N-AT odule is 300h rather than 310h (as described in the User s Guide). The sae selection ust be ade in the PROGRAF AS+ enu Option/N-AT Hardware Address. resp. The sae selection ust be ade while installing the N-AT driver for PROGRAF AS+/NT. Menu Doku, Chapter 7.13 Paragraph 1, only an overview figure is printed and not individual pages and overview page. Configuration cycle, Chapter and Cross reference of blocks, Chapter Code bits for alar (A) and write protection (S) were only shown with not interconnected inputs, because only in this case these bits were taken into the loading sequence.

19 10 Known Restrictions and Reedies If a loading sequence in an AS that is in STA ode is loaded, a cycle overload (due to a issing I/O odule and the resulting driver essage) and a tieout of the PROGRAF AS+ structuring telegra on the bus syste can occur. The data can then no longer be correctly or copletely transferred. Reedy: Put the AS in stop or switch out the peripheral driver. When generating the OS cross reference data, no reovable edia (diskette etc.) can be selected. The data ust be copied anually onto the desired data ediu after it has been exported. Reedy:If your syste can address reovable edia as a hard disk, you should select this ode. PROGRAF AS+ will then be able access this data ediu. It is not possible to define several epty eleents in the ORPA editor because eleents with the sae nae are not peritted. If data is archived to a data ediu fro within PROGRAF AS+, no write errors to the ediu are registered by PROGRAF AS+. Reedy:Before deleting the original data, you should read the data back to avoid any loss of data. If the data can be read fro the ediu, the contents of the files have been archived without error. If a PROGRAF AS+ autoation syste is archived without including the docuentation data, and is then later restored, a syste error occurs because the syste still searches for the docuentation directory. Reedy:However, after canceling the error, you can continue to work without any proble and, for exaple, create a new set of docuentation data. When restoring an AS fro the hard disk, you can only select the sae type of drive as the one containing the PROGRAF AS+ structures for the target drive. Reedy:Using the Windows explorer, create the path <drive>\prograf\as_data (where <drive> is the drive identity, e.g. C:) on the corresponding drive. Now PROGRAF AS+ will also recognize this drive as the target drive. Fro software version F on, you can change ORPA paraeter naes in the AS at a later date using SYST.WART. This functionality is not available in PROGRAF AS+. Reedy:Change the naes in the AS and then read the structures back. Make sure that no changes are being ade siultaneously within these structures on PROGRAF AS+. When loading TML progras via PROGRAF AS+, only lines up to a axiu of 64 characters are processed. Longer lines result in error essages. Copyright SIEMENS AG All Rights Reserved. Page 19 of 22

20 If PROGRAF AS+ is used in conjunction with an PROFIBUS-TM coupling, ake sure that the text was not adapted to suit the PROFIBUS environent. This eans that in all locations where the N-AT odule is naed, the PROFIBUS odule is addressed. This behavior applies to all N-AT related texts. If PROGRAF AS+ is registered for structuring via the syste bus and the coupling is interrupted, only the sae station can log back on to the AS. Reedy:Restart the online structuring station and log on and off correctly. If any odule accesses are present in a PROGRAF AS+ data set, an error can occur having the code nuber C2A3. Reedy:Define soe large odules, e.g. GA, GB, RN etc. and then delete the again. Now the error should not recur. Note, however, that when the entire syste is transferred out and then transferred back, the error occurs again. While outputting a STEP chart on screen or printer, a red error essage box (Syste Error 895) ay appear, if the bracketing level of the STEP odule is very large. If in CFC a block is reoved fro one cycle to another several ties without delta loading between, the build off coands will be issing in the delta loading sequence. (Exaple: Move a block fro cycle 3 to cycle 2 and then to cycle 5. After the following delta loading the block is build in at cycle 3 and 5.) Reedy:Before reoving a block a second tie, do a delta loading first. If a network printer is selected as standard printer an error essage This selection is only possible after a PostScript printer driver has been set as standard printer! appears during docuentation selection, even if the network printer is qualified for PostScript. Cause: Reading the printer paraeters is not possible via network. Reedy:Install a local PostScript printer driver, select this as standard printer, and select Print in Print File. After the docuentation has been produced and printed into the print file the network printer can be set as standard printer again, and the print file can be printed by the enu ite Print File Output on Printer. If a N-PCI is fitted in your PC, and the ACPI ode has been switched on, it can happen under Windows 2000 and XP, that the PC slows down or even crashes. Cause: New PCs have the function Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI). This enables an energy saving PC ode, because PC coponents (as screen, harddisk, interfaces, etc.) are deactivated tie-dependent when they are not used. This ode ay be incopatible with elder PCI odules (e.g. N-PCI) resp. with the BIOS of the PC. Therefore this new function has to be switched off within the BIOS before installing an operation syste, or the ACPI ode has to be disabled during the installation. This affects as well Windows XP as Windows 2000 on otherboards with a BIOS newer than 1/1999. Reedy:This proble can only be solved by changing within the BIOS and following new installation of Windows. Copyright SIEMENS AG All Rights Reserved. Page 20 of 22
