Level E
This level offers full flexibility, but requires detailed knowledge of the
application's structure and the programming tools. You must ensure that the
functions of the program work. You must ensure that the programs you develop
fit together with all elements in the library and that they are well tested and
documented. You must take care of the compatibility, the versioning and the
library packaging.
Creating a technical hierarchy
The technical hierarchy is the BACnet view on the Desigo system. It is based on
the plant-related structure in the building. This hierarchy is defined during
engineering. In special cases, if the customer requires it, the technical hierarchy
can be built according to a plant-specific structure defined by the customer
(user designation).
This lets, e.g., the customer view the building in Desigo CC according to this
structure:
● Building topology (area, building, floor, plant, plant section, etc.)
● Naming in the system (names according to technical hierarchy, user
designation or free designation)
Creating loadable components for the automation stations
The result of the engineering are loadable configurations:
● Configuration of the automation station: Network configuration (IP, LON,
MS TP addresses), BACnet configuration (BACnet name and BACnet ID)
● Application: I/O configuration and setting parameters or program (for
programmable automation stations)
● Operating language: When you load the configuration, the operating
language for the generic operation is also loaded
● Firmware: For system upgrade or bug fixing
Creating the configuration of operation
The system devices can be operated locally, over the web, on a touch panel or
in Desigo CC. Operations can either be generic (without additional engineering)
or dedicated (with additional engineering via favorites or operating graphics).
● The generic operation is based on the technical hierarchy. It must not be
engineered.
● The room operation can be configured.
● Favorites are a simple grouping of operable elements in a summarized view.
This view can also be generic, e.g., as a favorite in ABT-SSA, or it can be
engineered, e.g., as a favorite for PXM20.
● The graphic operation must be engineered.
Installation, test and commissioning
An I/O configuration must be loaded for the point test. An application program
is not always loaded with the configuration.
You can carry out a point test with an application program if the application
program can be turned off during the point test. This way you can carry out a
test if, e.g., a central security function would prohibit you from operating the
I/O, e.g., if a central security function does not allow lowering the blinds.
The test protocol can store which points have passed the test and which points
have an error.
Creating local documentation and project documentation
The tools have two types of documentation:
