Chapter 1 Installation
Overview This part deals with the installation of Movicon and the components
necessary for the communication such as licensing and commissioning.
Short overview
Movicon Movicon is an open HMI/Scada platform that offers users a quick and
simple way to create vertical applications for visualization, the collection of
operational data, logging, maintenance, etc.
With its intuitive user interface and its numerous integrated tools, operating
Movicon is simple for the user.
HMI HMI (Human Machine Interface) are systems for the operation of technical
installations, the observation of processes and the data backup of industrial
manufacturing processes. HMI devices are applied for simple machines
such as packaging machines.
SCADA SCADA systems (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) include, based
on an industrial PC, components for control, analysis, monitoring, storing
and administration of the information flow between the systems of the field
level and the process control level of a company. This guarantees the
connection between the decentral I/O units and the machine controllers as
well as to the office computers of the process control level.
While HMI devices are used for simple control tasks, the highly efficient
SCADA devices are usually applied for complex automation systems.
By means of this device it is possible to represent operational processes in
the form of flow charts. This increases the transparency for its monitoring.
Important operational data are being collected and represented graphically.
In the event of an error, the alarm will immediately be set off and by means
of the respective entry form, you can react on this error.
Overview For the projecting of the Touch Panel with Movicon, Movicon is to be
installed on an external PC. Here, you have the option to create and
simulate your project and to transfer it to your Touch Panel via FTP, TCP
or via the synchronization software "ActiveSync" by Microsoft using a
connection that has been installed beforehand.
Furthermore, you have the option to save your project to memory cards
such as MMC, SD or CF and to transfer it to the Touch Panel by means of
an integrated card slot.
Via a pre-installed runtime version of Movicon at the Touch Panel your
project is run-able.
Connect to PLC By using the according communication driver, the Touch Panel supports
system connecting options to the PLC via MPI, field bus and Ethernet.
Communication During the operation your operating device communicates with the
according PLC and reacts to the application courses in the PLC according
to the configured processes.
Via dialogs configured before, process values may be monitored
graphically, altered and evaluated.
