With manipulations in the AS it must be ensured that - depending on the measure - messages etc. may be lost via status message frames and/ or MKS message frames. Setting the AS in a defined state first is therefor expedient.

9.9S Strings in TML Blocks

Only the first character of a parameter of the "S" type in a TML block can be read.

9.10 Structures of Field Blocks (GA, GB, etc)

Only one structure definition is possible for each field type. All configured fields in the AS must show at least this length.

The export of PROGRAF AS merely creates the first element. Any other element must be added manually. The 0th element must also be created manually if it shall be read.

A length between 1 and 256 is possible.

9.11 Fonts

"Large fonts" must not be selected in the screen properties.

9.12 Number of Variables Under a Connection

A maximum of 64k variables may be created under an AS connection.

9.13 Troubleshooting Tips

⊆License Problems at Runtime

Frequently, the TELEPERM M hotline is notified of license problems that are signalled during runtime after the TELEPERM M channel has been installed. In all cases this is due to the fact that an authori- zation was purchased for the operation with AS 23*, while version “AS 23* and AS 220" was specifi- cally selected during the installation process. The problem is eliminated when installation is repeated correctly.

Version and AS type of the TELEPERM M channel are stored in the registry code

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Siemens AG\WinCC_TM under "Version" or "AS-Typ" respec- tively.

This information can be retrieved via the program TM_Info (in the TM_Werkzeuge directory).

⊆Missing Texts in Image Blocks

Likewise, customers frequently report that texts are not displayed in the image blocks during runtime after the WinCC/TM-OCX (NORA) has been installed. This is due to the fact that - contrary to the re- quirement fixed in the description - these image blocks were not configured via the property box. Once the image blocks have been edited via this property box, the texts are transferred and are displayed by the image blocks during runtime.

⊆Message of the Teleperm M Class

For various function blocks, the TELEPERM M message generator creates messages of the TELEPERM M class. Since this class is obviously not contained in the prefabricated WinCC message images, they must be incorporated by the configuring engineer if this is required.

9.14 "Init" Button in System Parameter of the TELEPERM M channel/ CS 725

This button may not pressed at runtime in any case.

9.15 Start-up on Non-existing Function Blocks

The coupling start-up on function blocks that do not exist in the AS is extended for some minutes per block.

9.16 Start-up on CS275 Device Number 0
