FF-CONF Configure your plant

Here you define the cycles of the auto save and the handling with Tag names. If you want to add or to change the project description you can do it here even so the project exists.

5.1.2.8 Help

The Help function gives you information in different ways. You can call it by pressing the F1 button and you get the Help-Information for the current function you are working with. You also can reach the Help function with the menu item Help.

5.1.3 ToolBar - Icons you can use while working

In this line 4 buttons are shown which can be used while FF-CONF is runing.

You can <Save Project>, start <Build All>, start <Download Project> and with the icon <Online> you change offline/online. If you want to activate or deactivate the toolbar click the right mouse button on any item of the main menu.

Fig 5.1-11 Activate or deactivate the ToolBar in any item of the main menu

5.1.4 Main view

Main view tabs (4) are the most important functions to build a configuration, to assign configured devices of the <Network Configuration> with the <Network Livelist>, to configure the <Function Block Application> and activate the messaging between the blocks of the different devices.

Below you find a free space (5) where you normally work after you have chosen a tab.

5.1.4.1 <Network Configuration>

The tab <Network Configuration> is always unhidden. In the Network Configuration you configure your network offline. The description of the devices must be allocated in the device type library. Therefore see chapter Managing the Device Type Library.

To work faster you can use the offered icons:

to sort the devices, to assign and to download the project.

In the upper right corner of your working space you find two icons <Toggle drag> and <Reset>. They allow you to relocate the devices shown in the working space and to reset to the standard notification. First click <Toggle drag> and then to an object of the configuration. Your mouse pointer changes to a cross and you can move the whole configuration picture across your working space.
