In the next stage of the process you define the T9110 processor module functionality
and set up connections to a group of processor module status parameters. Here you
will enter values for functions such as the serial port settings, process safety time, and
SNTP and Modbus services.
The AADvance Workbench provides pre-defined I/O module status parameters for
each module to which you assign application variables.
Finally you connect (wire) each I/O channel to structured variables. These structured
variables report input the channel status and define output data values.
You define hardware redundancy in the AADvance Workbench when you define the
hardware configuration. During the allocation of I/O modules to empty slots, you are
presented with the option to add two or three modules. When you choose the two or
three option the AADvance Workbench automatically allocates the modules to a
group of adjacent slots. The AADvance Workbench then only allows you to configure
one set of I/O channels to the group.
Note: You do not need to define redundancy for the processors. The AADvance
Workbench automatically connects to all three processors after their IP addresses
have been set up in the AADvance Workbench.
About the 9110 Module Editor
The 9110 Module Editor configures all the main processor functionality and enables
you to wire status and control variables.
1) Selecting the Equipment tab
2) Select 9110 Processor to open the editor.
The editor provides a set of tabbed pages where you can configure the different items.
Each page provides an editor for a set of related configuration items. When you finish
setting up the items on a page, click Apply to save your changes before you move to
another page.
