This tab shows the protocol when linking a program. - Error stack

Displays the PSS error stack (only in online mode). - Download

Shows the communication protocol when downloading a program to the PSS.

- Upload

Shows the communication protocol when uploading a program from the PSS to the computer.

- Allocations

When a block of type FB, OB, PB or SB is open, this tab shows the allocations of the operands used in the active segment/network. If none of the operands in the segment/network have a tag defined in the allocation table, the Allocations tab will remain empty.

e Workspace

Editors for processing the blocks, allocation table, etc. are opened in the workspace.

(17)

Connect computer to PSS

Most functions require a connection between the computer and the PSS.

The PG interface on the PSS may be an RS 232 and/or an RS 485 interface (see the operating manual for the relevant safety system). If the PG interface on the PSS is different to the interface on the computer, you will need to connect via an interface adapter.

If the programmable safety system has an ETH-2 interface, data can also be transferred via Ethernet.

Once you have established a physical connection between the PSS and the computer you will need to set the correct interface in PSS WIN-PRO: Check that the correct interface is set on the PG Interface tab under Tools -> Options.

In the Online Timeout field you can state the length of time for which PSS

WIN-PRO should attempt to establish a connection with the PSS, when switching to online mode. If the connection cannot be made after the preset time, an error message will be displayed.

(21)

Dynamic program display

Alongside the display of variables, dynamic program display is another useful aid when searching for programming errors. When a block is shown in dynamic program display, the contents of the indirect addresses,

operands, RLO, accumulator and auxiliary accumulator can be viewed. Dynamic program display can be run across one or more segments: • Dynamic program display across one segment

Dynamic program display starts in the segment containing the cursor and finishes at the start of the following segment; if there is no segment to follow, it finishes at the end of the block.

• Dynamic program display across several segments (only on PSS with an FS operating system version ≥ 39)

Dynamic program display applies to the whole of the block area that is visible in the block editor

(22)

Functions

2. Open project or PSS program

You can view the PSS program and then start dynamic program display for a block, or you can open the project that contains the

identical program to that of the PSS and start dynamic program display for a block. The benefit of the latter is that you can display the tags and comments from the allocation table.

Open a project (Project -> Open) or select PSS -> Open PSS Pro-gram.

3. Set the mode

Switch to FS mode if you wish to run dynamic program display on an FS block or ST mode if you wish to run dynamic program display on an ST block.

4. Select block

You can display the Program Manager tab in the project window and from there select the block whose contents you wish to view, or you can display the Program Structure tab and select the block there. If all the blocks in the program are called just once, you can use either method. If a block is called several times within the program, you can only select the block calls you wish to display via the program

structure.

In the Project Manager or in the Program Structure, double-click on the block whose contents you wish to view.

5. Start dynamic program display

Select PSS -> Dynamic Program Display -> Start dynamic program display across one segment or PSS -> Dynamic Program Display -> Start dynamic program display across several segments.

(23)

If the block is programmed in IL, a table will be inserted within the program code, displaying the contents of the operands, etc. If the block is programmed in LD or FBD, the table will be displayed in a separate window. If the window is not displayed, select PSS -> Dynamic Pro-gram Display -> Details Dynamic ProPro-gram Display. The display is

constantly updated.

The block for which the program display is being run is highlighted in the program structure through the symbol.

An icon on the block’s status bar shows which type of dynamic pro-gram display is being run on a block:

Dynamic program display across one segment Dynamic program display across several segments

6. Define displayed segment (only when Start dynamic program display across one segment has been selected in step 5)

With program display across one segment, you can define the segment for which the program display is to be run by changing the cursor position.

Click in the segment for which the program display is to be run. 7. Change display format

The values can be displayed in binary, decimal or hexadecimal. Select PSS -> Dynamic Program Display -> Display ....

8. Define loop (only when Start dynamic program display across one segment has been selected in step 5)

If loops are programmed within the block, it is possible to define the loop cycle on which the display should occur. The set loop is displayed in the status bar of the block window.

(24)

Functions

9. Activate program display for additional blocks

It is not possible to run the program display for several blocks

simultaneously, but you can start dynamic program display for several blocks and then activate the window of the block for which the program display is to be run. A block that is called up at several points within the program can only be opened once, but you can define which of the block calls is displayed via the program structure.

Carry out steps 4 and 5 for any additional blocks and then activate the window containing the block for which program display is to be run. 10. Stop dynamic program display

The program display must be stopped separately for each block. Only if you have opened the PSS program can you stop the program display for all blocks in one go by closing the program.

Select PSS -> Dynamic Program Display -> Stop Dynamic Program Display or close the block.

(25)

Display variables

Alongside dynamic program display, variable display is another useful aid when searching for programming errors. With variable display, the values of any operands from one or more blocks are displayed. Absolute addresses from the programmable safety system can also be displayed.

The operands to be displayed must be entered in a variable table. There may be several variable tables within a project’s FS and ST project section. The PSS has one variable table for the FS section and one for the ST section.

(26)

Functions

2. Open project or PSS program

You can view the PSS program and then start to display variables, or you can open the project that contains the identical program to that of the PSS and then start the function. The benefit of the latter is that you can switch between several variable tables (see step 8, “Switch varia-ble tavaria-ble”).

Open a project (Project -> Open) or select PSS -> Open PSS Pro-gram.

3. Set the mode

Switch to FS mode or ST mode, depending on which variables you wish to display.

4. Open variable table

In the Project Manager, double-click on the variable table that you wish to use to display and control/force.

5. Edit variable table

Enter in the variable table all the operands/addresses that you wish to display.

6. Start variable display

Select PSS -> Variable Table -> Start Variable Display.

The actual values of the operands in the variable table are displayed. The display is updated at each cycle change.

7. Edit variable table

As soon as you make a change to a variable table, the display for that variable table will be stopped.

Make the changes and then restart variable display. 8. Stop variable display

If you wish to “freeze” variable display at a particular point or if you wish to stop the variable display, select PSS -> Variable Table -> Stop Variable Display or close the variable table.

(27)

Please note the following when displaying variables:

• You can enter a maximum of 32 operands/addresses in the variable table.

• Before you enter data words in the variable table, you must always state the corresponding data block, e.g. “DB053” in the Operand column.

Display PSS error stack

The error stack of each PSS can be displayed.

2. Display error stack

Select PSS -> Display Error Stack.

The PSS error messages are shown in the information window under the Error Stack tab. The display is constantly updated. Displaying the

error stack places quite a load on PSS WIN-PRO. For this reason it makes sense to exit the error stack display when you are finished. 3. Display remedy

To display the remedy for a particular error, double-click on the rele-vant error entry.

The remedy describes how to react to the event/error. The remedy contains a maximum of 8 steps, the so-called “Actions”. These actions should be performed in the order stated. If the first action does not rectify the error, carry out the next action, etc. If any action does not apply to your application, simply miss it out.

(28)

Functions

Display error stack of a unit on SafetyBUS p

The error stack of every device on SafetyBUS p can be displayed. 1. Connect computer

2. Start the SBp Configurator

From the Windows Start menu select Programs -> Pilz -> PSS WIN-PRO -> SafetyBUS p Configurator Service Version

or

click on in the PSS WIN-PRO toolbar.

3. Go Online
