PROGRAM NET CONSTRUCTION

Program Nets are developed in HyperNet and saved as files with the filename extension *.NET.

Program Nets must be developed to match the existing hardware installed in the target OMP-MODL. For example a Program Net that uses a MLIM-2 Frequency Input Channel will only work in a OMP-MODL that has a MLIM-2 installed.

Configuration details that must match include:

Interface Modules - Program Nets must match the OMP-MODL installed Interface Module types.

Port - The Port (I/O Module location) used in the Program Net and the Port used for an Interface Module in the OMP-MODL must match.

Channel Configurations - Interface Modules equipped with hardware configuration switches must have their switches set to match the Program Net on a channel by channel basis.

For Example: If an MLIM-1 is installed in Port 3 and has the Channel B configured (via the Channel B hardware configuration switch) for VDC-HI, then any Program Net loaded into the OMP-MODL must have Channel 3B used as a VDC-HI channel (or optionally, not used).

If a Program Net that does not match the target OMP-MODL hardware configuration is uploaded to the OMP-MODL memory, a configuration mismatch error will display and the upload will not occur. This checking of compatibility is handled automatically within HyperWare during the upload process and insures that hardware and software compatibility exists.
