Such triggers as a Event Driven Configuration Tool simple bit level transition, a PLC coil activation, or a complex application Edict 97, an extremely powerful Windows 95/3.11 based software program, algorithm can activate an alarm. The alarms can be time and date stamped, with provides for the intuitive configuration of every aspect of the operator an automatic screen display and/or downloading to a printer for hard copy interface’s behavior. The requirement for time consuming PLC ladder logic is recording purposes. drastically reduced by the unique event driven approach of EDICT 97. The capability of this program, in conjunction with the PLC and the Paradigm RECIPE HANDLING operator interface unit, ensures a great deal of advanced functionality for your Recipe handling in the Paradigm Operator Interfaces can be tailored to your system. This powerful PLC/Paradigm system provides many of the capabilities requirements. Using the “Data Files” section of Named Data, one can set up and features normally associated with the more complicated and costly arrays with meaningful titles, and select, edit, and maintain, recipe data up to PC/SCADA systems. Display pages are easily generated, including PLC and 8000 elements per file. In conjunction with User Programs, and the flexible data internal variables, text strings, or bar charts. All dynamic elements are also displays, the operator can select desired recipe, by number or by title, and either available as alarms, recipes, triggers, and reports for the run time software. After upload from, or download to, the target system. All the functions of EDICT97 completion of the programming, the program is directly downloaded to the are available, so the programmer can password protect the editing of the recipes operator interface from your PC, without any compiling or saving requirement. and allow for the transfer of data from a host system. When you require a change in your program, EDICT 97 loads only the change, not the entire program, saving valuable on-line time. REAL TIME SCHEDULE Real time schedule allows for repetitive or one time task to take place in the DYNAMIC DISPLAY PAGE ELEMENTS system. Typically a schedule action similar to...At 1:55 PM on Monday, Each display page has provisions to show static and dynamic information, Wednesday, and Friday print the production report...is required in the including data variables, text messages, time, and date. application. In conjunction with the recipe capabilities, a downloading of a Data Variables can be either PLC derived or internally generated, either in data special recipe can be requested by the real time schedule feature. entry or display only mode. The Paradigm unit has an extremely powerful math capability, allowing the operator to manipulate the variables to meet the USER PROGRAMS specific application’s demands. If required, the display can be formatted to This feature offers the user the ability to incorporate custom application BCD, binary, hex, floating point, and string.

SECURITY The password protection scheme provides the ultimate in tamper-proof capability. Access can be limited on a unit, page, recipe, or even individual data entries. 2 COMMUNICATIONS BATTERY BACKUP ISSUES With over 70 communication drivers available, the Paradigm operator The Operator Interface is supplied with a Lithium Battery designed to interface offers a wide range of connectivity including: PLCs, Variable Speed maintain the internal memory and real-time clock during power outages. Drives, Temperature Controllers, Bar Code Readers, etc. Utilizing real PLC data Assuming the operator interface terminal is powered up for 50% of the time, references, the automatic comms configuration optimizes the system’s this battery should last over 4 years.

It is possible to replace the battery without losing the contents of the Operator Interface’s memory, but this does not reduce the importance of ensuring that a GRAPHIC UNITS copy of the terminal’s configuration is kept readily at hand to allow the terminal In addition to all the features of the character-based units, the GL and GX will to be re-loaded in the case of mishaps.

The importance of keeping a copy on disk cannot be over stressed. programmer can use the built-in standard symbols, or construct them. A sequence of graphical symbols can be assigned to a PLC location, and the CHANGING THE BATTERY powerful software will step through the sequence without the necessity of programming multiple expressions for each bitmap. Some of the inherent features of the Graphical Display units: O Data Logging O Process symbols, such as tanks, valves, etc. O Extraordinary color displays on the VX-500 and VX-550. O Memory expansion is field-upgradeable. O Plus all the functions available in EDICT 97, the powerful event driven configuration tool that allows one to configure a system to do what is needed. ANIMATED GRAPHICS Graphical pages are constructed using both bitmaps and object graphics. Animation items such as tending, tank filling, horizontal and vertical bar graphs, valves, etc., make your display pages aesthetically pleasing as well as informative to the operator.
