ABB DSTA022A Predefine Configuration

Description

If there is an active connection available, ASTAT Tool will retrieve the Release version of the Software

running the ASTAT hardware. For instance, in the screenshot in the beginning of this chapter the hard

ware that the ASTAT Tool was connected to had Release 3 software running. This information is used by

rest the system as a default (for instance the Signals Tools will automatically select signals available in

Release 3 if this is what has been detected in hardware).

If no connection was detected the system defaults to the latest release version registered in the configu

ration files.

Note: In “Active Connection”, the term “Active” is used to imply that the status of the connection has been

confirmed; if no user traffic is detected, the communication protocol generates ping-pong style messag

ing.

Templates are ASTAT tool configuration files with the file-extension *.ATT (as opposed to *.AST).

The difference is in the way the Tool handles the file upon opening or saving. When the user

opens a template it is treated as a NEW file without a name, thus user must use the ‘Save As’

function when saving a template. The default extension when saving an opened template file is

AST.

Or in other words, templates are used to create new ASTAT configuration files from a set of pa

rameter values and motion properties defined by the opened template.

Working with templates

Templates are particularly useful in two scenarios:

Predefined configurations for certain types of hardware (motor etc.)

Using a machine or plant template to create configuration files

In the first scenario the user starts with a template that contains parameters that are suitable for

the type of hardware that is being used.

The second scenario targets the situation when the user first defines parameters such as the ‘Ma

chine name’, ‘Plant name’ etc. These parameters are generally same for each motion within the

system of motions (cranes).
