PLC settings
This dialog is provided on a tab of the Device dialog (Device Editor), which can be
opened via command 'Edit Object' or by a double-click on the device object entry in the
Devices window. It serves to configure some general settings for the device (PLC).
Abb. 473 Device dialog, PLC settings
Application for I/O handling: Define here, which of the applications assigned to the
device in the device tree should be noticeed for the I/O-mapping. Initially the standard
application, which is always inserted automatically in a standard project, will be set,
but you may choose another one from the selection list.
PLC settings:
Update IO while in stop: If this option is activated (default), the values of the input and
output channels get also updated when the PLC is stopped. In case of expiration of the
watchdog, the outputs are set to the defined default values.
Behaviour for outputs in Stop: From the selection list choose one of the following
options, how the values at the output channels should be handled in case of PLC stop:
Keep current values: The current values will not be modified.
Set all outputs to default: The default values resulting from the mapping will be
assigned.
Execute program: You might determine the outputs behaviour by a program available
within the project. Enter the name of this program here and it will be executed when
the PLC gets stopped. Via button
the Input Assistant can be used for this purpose.
Update all variables in all devices: If this option is activated, then for all devices of the
current PLC configuration all I/O variables will get updated in each cycle of the bus
cycle task. This corresponds to option Always update variables, which can be set
separately for each device in the "I/O Mapping" dialog.
