the elements of the application libraries. Any changes to the application
libraries must therefore also be made to the graphics libraries.
The graphics libraries for Desigo PX and PXC3/DXR2 are identical.
13.4 Project data
There are three types of project data:
● Project data that is saved locally and then loaded into the system.
● Data on the Branch Office Server (BOS).
● Data that is loaded into the system with ABT Site and is not saved locally.
Project data is created during project engineering, when you create a project
program using library components. Project programs define the sequence in
which function blocks (programming elements) are processed, and what
interconnections are used between blocks.
The library components are selected:
● In Xworks Plus (XWP) in the Solution Generator (recommended workflow
for Desigo PX)
● In the CFC Editor from the compound and firmware libraries for Desigo PX
● In Xworks Plus and Automation Building Tool (ABT) from the Desigo room
automation stations
Desigo room automation room applications are configured in ABT by selecting
the required functions or model rooms.
RXB room applications are configured in XWP by selecting the required
functions or sample rooms. Data import in XWP to address the room devices is
carried out in different tools, depending on the RX device.
For device... From tool...
RXB and KNX/EIB third-party devices PX KNX tool and ETS
LonWorks third-party devices Standard LON tools
PXC3 room applications are programmed and configured in XWP/ABT by
selecting and configuring the applications required for the rooms and room
segments (application functions).
The configuration of TX-I/O modules depends on the PX automation station:
● PX automation station with island bus connection: The XWP/ABT tools
transfer the configuration data (IOC) to the target automation station
PX/PXC3.
● PX automation station with P-bus connection: The configuration data
(IOMD) from XWP is loaded into the I/O modules via the TX-I/O tool.
The IOC/IOMD configuration data is saved as project data.
Project data is stored offline in XWP/ABT engineering tools. The backup and
restore function creates a backup of the data and, in case of data loss, restores
the data to the PX automation station.
Back up your data regularly to protect yourself against data loss.
The backup copy contains all necessary data of a PX automation station to
ensure the automation station is fully functional after data restoration. You can
back up and restore data on third-party automation stations. You can save
engineering data on PX compact automation stations.
Data from the PX automation stations are saved as a backup copy on Desigo
CC. The data is exported and saved as BACnet data.
