2. Check Process Variables in the Configuration Work Area to enable the Process
Variables collection. The table containing the list of the defined process variables will
be displayed.
3. Click the Add button to append a new line to the Process Variables List. Click the
Insert button to create a new line in the Process Variables List before the selected row.
Click the Remove button to delete the selected line from the Process Variables List.
You can configure up to five process variables.
4. Enter a description, a unit of measure, and a PLC address for every Process Variable in
the Process Variables List.
Summarization events
Refer to “User-defined summarization criteria” on page 24 and to “General settings” on
page 37 for general information about summarization events.
Summarization events can be generated either by the plant control system or by the line
operator who can trigger the event manually with the Discrete MPS Operator Interface.
Six summarization events can be configured:
„ The first five events are generated by a change in a text string. The first event is
reserved for storing a Product ID.
„ The sixth event is generated by a change in a numerical value.
