Xworks Project Manager
The Xworks Project Manager lets you:
● Create, open and archive projects
● Check in/out project data for parallel engineering from the Branch Office
Server (BOS)
● Define PXC automation stations, control units and Desigo CC. The
automation stations are not engineered here, but only used in the
documentation and considered during the network check.
● Define rough network overviews (network data) and control cabinet
assignments (panel data)
● Define further project data, data and automation stations for RXB and
Desigo room automation
● Create control cabinet assignments, that is, group automation stations to
control cabinets. This way you can export data and create documentation
per control cabinet.
● View locally available projects. There is no connection to the Branch Office
Server (BOS) in this mode.
● View the properties of an object, e.g., a network, an automation station, etc.
Xworks Point Configurator
The Xworks Point Configurator lets you define the functions of an automation
station. You can insert solutions for the object plant, plant section, aggregate
and component into this technical hierarchy. You can configure prebuilt verified
solutions using options (leaving out) or variants (options). After you select and
configure the solution, the program is automatically created.
