20. After correction of the errors, an upload can be started manually by clicking
Upload.
After completion of the upload the Available Subnet Version and the Uploaded
Vers ion are identical.
The configuration of the FF network with the FF Application has now been
completed. Subsequently the configured data must be distributed to the connected
devices.
Step 4: Load the FF Application
Once it has been loaded, the data of the FF Application is distributed over the FF
network.
The FF Application is loaded in two steps. In the first step - the precommissioning -
a device assignment between the configured devices and the devices which are
actually present is carried out. Basic settings are written to the devices.
In the second step - the commissioning - the data of the FF Application is loaded
into the individual devices.
Step 4a: Precommissioning
The precommissioning is different for linking devices and H1 devices.
During the precommissioning of a linking device the tag name is written and the
configured H1 links are activated. For H1 devices, the tag name is written to the
device and the bus address set. The device ID is read out of the device and stored in
the Fieldbus Builder FF database. As a result, the device can subsequently be
detected. The configured blocks are loaded into H1 devices with instantiable
function blocks.
Precommissioning of a Linking Device
1. Select a linking device object in the Plant Explorer Control Structure.
2. Select the FF Management Aspect.
3. Start Fieldbus Builder FF with Open Project.
4. Reserve node by Context menu > Reserve node.
