7... HYPERNET™ I CON BASED PROGRAMMING

OVERVIEW

The OMP-MODL operates in the field based on a program loaded into its memory called a Program Net (Figure 7... -1). The Program Net provides instructions for the OMP-MODL including which channels to sample, when to sample, how to process the incoming signals, when to output alarms, and much more.

Figure 7... -1: Example Program Net

Development of a Program Net is done on a PC running HyperWare. After development, the Program Net is uploaded directly to the OMP-MODL memory via a serial communication link or indirectly via upload to a PCMCIA card. The PCMCIA card can then be plugged into the OMP-MODL. Actual development of the Program Net is performed in the HYPERNET WINDOW and the serial transfer of the Program Net from the PC to the OMP-MODL (or to the PCMCIA card) is performed from

within the HYPERCOMM WINDOW.

Program Nets are developed through the following sequence of steps:

Create a new Program Net file for the connected OMP-MODL (which automatically determines the installed hardware in the connected OMP-MODL)

Add desired functions to the Program Net by dragging various icons onto the HyperNet workspace

Add connections between icon terminals indicating signal flow

Configure the various icon options (eg Celcius or Fahrenheit, type of thermocouple, filtering, equations, etc)

Configure the Global icon

Save the Program Net and/or transfer it to a connected OMP- MODL for execution.

This chapter describes the HyperNet development environment and provides detailed instruction on constructing Program Nets. Detailed icon configuration information is provided in the Master Icon Reference in Appendix A. For the
