Logic Configuration

In this chapter you edit the preconfigured logic file that the DMAT Wizard created for your specific application.

Besides initial controller, network, and device configurations, the preconfigured logic file includes machine,
application, and device logic modules that significantly speed-up your application logic development. In
addition, the logic modules include control, status, and diagnostic code that provides information to
preconfigured operator interface faceplates that you can run on personal computers or PanelViewPlus terminals.

If you chose not to use the DMAT Wizard or desire to add or edit controller, networks, or drives since the
DMAT Wizard was executed, refer to instructions in

Appendix G

before executing the steps in this chapter.

Logic Modules

The machine module provides a state machine model that coordinates multiple devices and application logic for
coordinated drives and motion applications. It provides overall machine commands, for example, start, stop,
abort, clear, and reset to the application modules and the individual device modules based on the status of the
applications and devices.
