Fig. 6: Project VEGAMET with VEGAPULS
Project creation VEGALOG and Profibus PA sensor
The following example shows a typical VEGALOG project with EP
card and Profibus sensors. We recommend using the "VEGA project
assistant", this facilitates the creation of projects considerably and
errors during addressing of the VEGALOG module cards and sensors
are avoided. All existing cards are found automatically and added to
the project. All connected Profibus sensors are also taken over auto-
matically into the project.
In case the planning is nevertheless carried out manually, e.g. when
creating an offline project, the following DTMs must be added to the
project tree:
1. First of all a driver must be selected by which the communication
via the PC can be carried out. Select the "VEGA Ethernet" DTM
from the instrument catalogue. With this driver, the connection
to VEGACOM 558 in the VEGALOG 571 processing system is
established.
When the "VEGA Ethernet" DTM in the project tree is selected,
you can later adjust the IP address for the VEGACOM 558
module card in the PACTware menu under "Device data - Add'l
functions - Change DTM addresses". The implementation of this
setting is only possible if a suitable DTM (e.g. VEGACOM 558)
has already been added to the project tree.
2. Finally the DTM "VEGALOG 571" must be added. This DTM
represents the VEGALOG 571 processing system. In this DTM,
measurement loops are created and processed later on.
When the "VEGALOG 571" DTM in the project tree is selected,
you can later adjust the card addresses for the VEGALOG
module cards in the PACTware menu under "Device data - Add'l
functions - Change DTM addresses". The implementation of this
setting is only possible if a corresponding DTM (e.g. VEGACOM
558) has already been added to the project tree.
