Process Object Type Built in Function Designer
The basic steps to built an object type comparable to the one described in Process
Object Type with Signals on page 504 within Function Designer are:
1. Create a Control Module Object Type beneath the Library Version object in the
Object Type Structure to represent the process function
2. Add a Function aspect
3. On the Function aspect of the Control Module Object Type representing a
process function open the Diagram view and create a new Diagram.
4. Use the Insert> Symbol... menu item and its Insert Objects dialog to insert the
the needed objects of object type MotorUniM, CBM_DIS (2x),
CBM_DOS(2x) and CBM_AIS. Their component representations show up in
the Diagram, the objects are created in the Object Type Structure
5. Do the graphical connects for the components in the Diagram using e.g. the
mouse
6. Change the names for the components as required by right clicking the
component representation and selecting the corresponding Name aspect from
the context menu: For the Signal components use the Relative Name aspect, for
the MotorUniM component use the Control Builder Name aspect.
It is recommended to use a naming scheme for the Signal components like
<control builder name>_<signalpostfix>, as this is supported by instance name
generation mechanisms in Bulk Data Management (and in the Engineering
Workplace context menu item Advanced > Rename Substructure).
7. Configure the CBM_SignalInformation aspects of the Signal objects to connect
to local variables: Select Connect to Local Variables on CM,FB
8. In the Object Type Structure insert the formal instance of the object type
MotorUniM (created by Function Designer below the Formal Instance List for
Control Structure) also under the Formal Instance List for the Functional
Structure in parallel to the formal instances of the signal objects.
