6.4 Set up the Strategy Library
The Strategy Library contains strategy blocks, which are standard pieces of strategy that can be re-used. It is therefore recommended that strategy blocks be created for all the pieces of strategy that are regularly used.
SET is supplied with a number of standard strategy blocks that can be used, or you can build up a library of different strategy blocks for all the different standard pieces of strategy you use. The strategy blocks are stored in the c:\program files\trend control systems\system engineering tool\strategy library\custom directory; if required, this location can be changed.
When you create a strategy block all the links between modules are retained, as is the relative position of the modules on the page, and their order in the sequence table. A single strategy block can be made up of several pages of strategy that can either be used individually, or as a whole.
Strategy blocks can be kept in groups (e.g. all AHU strategy blocks) so that they can be located quickly when required. If required each group can be divided using subgroups.
To set up strategy blocks:
1 Add the required strategy block groups as described in the ‘Add a Strategy Block Group’ section of this manual.
2 Add the required strategy blocks as described in the ‘Add a Strategy Block’ section of this manual.
6.4.1 Add a Strategy Block Group To create a strategy block group:
1 Open a project as described in the ‘Open a Project’ section of this manual and display the Strategy Library as described in the ‘Display the Strategy Library’ section of this manual.
2 Right-click Custom, and on the displayed menu click New Group. The Enter Group Name dialogue box is
3 In the box enter the name of the group.
4 Click OK.
5 Create any required strategy block sub groups as described below.
To create a strategy block sub group:
1 Right-click the group to which the sub group is to be added, and on the displayed menu click New Sub Group. The Enter Subgroup Name dialogue box is displayed.
2 In the box enter the name of the sub group.
3 Click OK.
6.4.2 Add a Strategy Block To add a strategy block:
1 Create the necessary strategy block groups as described in the ‘Add a Strategy Block Group’ section of this manual.
2 Right-click the strategy block group that the strategy block is to be placed in and on the displayed menu click New Strategy Block. The Strategy Block Properties dialogue box is displayed.
3 In the Block Name box enter the name of the strategy block.
4 In the Controller Type box select the type of controller for which the strategy block is to be used.
5 In the Firmware Version box select the firmware version of controller for which the strategy block is to be used.
6 In the Revision box enter the revision number of the strategy block.
7 In the Group box click the strategy block group to which the strategy block is to be added.
8 In the Sub Group box click strategy block sub group to which the strategy block is to be added.
9 In the Key Search box enter any keywords that can be used to search for the strategy block.
10 In the Details box enter a description of the strategy block.
11 Click OK. The new strategy block is created, with a blank page ready for strategy to be added.
Note that the strategy page is green to indicate that a strategy block is being edited.
12 Create the strategy for the strategy block as described in the ‘Configure the Controller Strategy’ section of this manual. Additional pages can be created for strategy by clicking .
If connectives are to be used to link modules on different pages it is necessary to ensure that each connective has a unique label, and that any modules to which it links have the same label. You should also ensure that the links between pages are backwards, i.e. from page 2 to page 1, but not from page 2 to page 3. When the strategy block is used SET matches the label of the connectives with the labels of modules already in the strategy and if a match is found the link is made. The pages in the strategy block are added in order therefore the modules on page 3 of the strategy block will not have been added to the strategy when SET is trying to find a match for a connective on page 2. If a match is not found the connective will be added as an undefined connective that must be defined after the strategy block has been used.
13 Once the strategy block is complete click to close the strategy page. A dialogue box is displayed asking if you want to save the changes.
14 Click Yes.
6.4.3 Copy an Old Strategy Block to the Custom Library
Old strategy blocks created using version of SET earlier than v6.0, that are stored in the Old Library can be copied into the Custom Library.
Tip this enables old strategy blocks to be edited.
To copy an old strategy block to the Custom Library:
1 Open a project as described in the ‘Open a Project’ section of this manual.
