Control Logic Section 2 Configuration
42 3BDS011222-510 B
Using existing standard control libraries and, if needed, having prepared control
libraries with own object types, you build your project´s control logic in Function
Diagrams. Examples for own object types are shown in Process Object Type with
Signals on page 504 or Process Object Type Built in Function Designer on page
508.
How to implement control logic using Control Builder M Professional only refer to
System 800xA Control AC 800M Configuration (3BSE035980*) and in Control
Builder M Professional Help.
Working with a Function Diagram
The following steps shows the principal workflow when working on a simple
Function Diagram. In an engineering project for a whole plant many such diagrams
are needed to implement the complete control logic of an automation solution. The
workflow steps summarized in Working with Multiple Function Diagrams on page
62 take care of Bulk Data Management support and bulk handling functions in
Function Designer which increase engineering efficiency.
Function Designer is not certified for building SIL-certified applications. It can
be used to configure non-SIL-certified applications for the AC 800M High
Integrity controller. SIL stands for Safety Integrity Level, as specified in the
standard IEC-61508.
The certified tool to configure SIL certified applications is Control Builder M
Professional. To run SIL certified AC 800M applications, you need the SIL
certified AC 800M High Integrity controller.
For information on guidelines and safety considerations related to all safety life-
cycle phases of an AC 800M High Integrity controller refer to System 800xA
Safety AC 800M High Integrity Safety Manual (3BNP004865*). This manual also
lists the available SIL certified library object types.
SIL-application related configuration procedures to perform with Control Builder
M Professional are described in System 800xA Control AC 800M Configuration
(3BSE035980*).
