4. Connections

HMI to PC HMI programs are downloaded / uploaded via RS-232. HMI PC

COM1/COM2 (DB9)

Note on VMX-30 – HMI to PC VMX-30 only has one physical COM port. Therefore downloading/uploading code and communication with an Arcus controller will need to use the same single port. This will require that the user switch cables when changing between these two modes of operation. For models with two DB9 ports (COM1 and COM2) either port can be used to download/upload HMI program information. By the same token either COM port may be used as the communication port to the Arcus controller.

6. Arcus Communication Setup

This section discusses the necessary steps to establish communication between the GP series HMI and an Arcus controller. Note that multi-drop networks only apply when RS-485 communication is employed. When using RS-232, only point-to-point communication can be achieved.

1 – Setting up the HMI File When executing VIEWX, you first have to create a new file. Click on [New File], and select a HMI Model ID. See below.


2 – Selecting/Configuring the Arcus Protocol Set the protocol by right clicking on either COM1 or COM2 and clicking [Add protocol]. Note that you’ll need click on the [Link] tab. See below. Notes on COM port selection: The COM port that you select should correspond to the physical COM port that is connected to your communication network. For details see section 4. For HMI models that provide 2 DB9 ports either COM port can be selected for RS-232/RS-485/RS-422 communication. However, for HMI models that only provide 1 DB9 port (VMX-30), COM1 must be selected for RS-232 communication and COM2 must be selected for RS-485 communication.

Select the [ARCUS Series] protocol. Note that the baud rate may need to be updated to match the baud rate setting of the target Arcus device.


a. Electric: Select communication method used for this port. b. Baud Rate: Baud rate of the communication. Make sure that the speed

matches with your Arcus controller. c. Data Bit: Data bits per character. Arcus serial communication uses the

standard 8 bits per character d. Parity: Error detection. Set to None. e. Stop Bit: Number of bits sent after every character. Select 1 bit f. Delay: Selects the length of the silent interval between polls for any

parameter. g. Time Out: Selects the length of time the HMI will wait for a response before

resending a command. h. Retry Count: The number of times the HMI will allow a communication time

out before signaling an error.

3 – Adding the Controller(s) Add a controller by right clicking on the protocol icon. See below. Each controller on the network will need to be added separately. Note: Make sure that each controller has a unique device address. This address will be used by the HMI to differentiate between multiple devices on the network.


Set the [ID] parameter to the device address of the Arcus device [0-99]. Match the [Station] parameter to the [ID] parameter. Also select the correct Arcus device. Currently the devices supported are: PMX-4EX-SA, ACE-SDE, DMX-K-SA.

See below for an example of 3 controllers added. The controllers below have address: 4EX00, 4EX01 and 4EX02.


Example: Reading from an Arcus Controller All read/write HMI objects allow the user to reference the Arcus controller data. See below for an example of reading. Objective:

- Read from device: [4EX02] - Display the [EX] x-axis encoder count value

1) Initializing the object: Click on the shortcut button for a numeric display shown

below.

Click and drag on the scene planning area in order to create a numeric display.


2) Numeric Display Settings: Immediately after the numeric display is created the following configuration screen will appear.

Data a. Format: Set to 32-bit signed to match the data type of the [EX] parameter. b. Read Address: Input the read address data. Since we are reading from an

Arcus controller we type “2:EX”. This signifies the [EX] parameter of device 02. To have the variable automatically created click on the [Exp] icon on the right.


1. Select the controller you would like read data from. You can also select internal HMI memory

2. Select from the available parameters of the controller to read from. Note that the data format of the object accessing the parameter must match the data type of the parameter to avoid misinterpretation of data.

3. Select from the possible variables given the selected parameter. In many cases there is only one possibility.

c. Max: Maximum allowable value for this object d. Min: Minimum allowable value for this object

Format e. Integer: The number of digits that are to be shown by the number display. f. Decimal Pos: The position of the decimal point (starts counting from right to

left). g. Leading Zeros: Check to prepend leading zeros to the value displayed in

order to keep the number of displayed digits the same at all times. h. DEC: Select to display data in decimal i. HEX: Select to display data in hexadecimal j. 32 Bits Float: Select to display data in IEEE 32-bit floating point

Note: Any field that has a [Exp] icon can allow for a mathematical expression. For example, instead of “2:EX” we can have “2:EX+1:EX”. This would display the sum of both the [EX] parameters for both device 01 and device 02.

Note: The HMI does not support floating point arithmetic. No matter what the declared type all mathematical operations will take the decimal form of the value and perform a non-floating point operation.

Example: Writing to an Arcus Controller All read/write HMI objects allow the user to reference the Arcus controller data. See below for an example of writing. Objective:

- Write to device: [4EX01] - Write to the [V21] PMX-4EX-SA variable.

1) Initializing the object: Click on the shortcut button for a set value button shown

below.

Click and drag on the scene planning area in order to create a set value button.


2) Set Value Button Settings: Immediately after the set value button is created the following configuration screen will appear.

Data i. Action: Select action type for the button

a. 0 – Input: Default setting for a set value button. This option requires the user to input a value via a key pad

b. 1 – Var/Const: This option will write the parameter or constant in the [Rule] field.

c. 2 – Inc/Dec: This option will increment or decrement the parameter by the value inputted in the [Rule] field. Sample values for the [Rule] field are: “+1”, “-1”

j. Format: Set to 32-bit signed to match the data type of the [V29] parameter. k. Write Address: Input the write address data. Since we are reading from an

Arcus controller we type “1:V29”. This signifies the [V29] parameter of device 01. To have the variable automatically created click on the [Exp] icon on the right.

1. Select the controller you would like write data to. You can also select internal HMI memory

2. Select from the available parameters of the controller to read from. Note that the data format of the object accessing the parameter must match the data type of the parameter to avoid misinterpretation of data.

3. Select from the possible variables given the selected parameter. In many cases there is only one possibility.

l. Max: Maximum allowable value for this object. This field can be left blank. m. Min: Minimum allowable value for this object. This field can be left blank. n. Notification: Select a bit address to turn on when this button is pressed. This

field can be left blank.

Format a. Decimal Pos: The position of the decimal point (starts counting from right to

left). b. Leading Zeros: Check to prepend leading zeros to the value displayed in

order to keep the number of displayed digits the same at all times. c. DEC: Select to display data in decimal d. HEX: Select to display data in hexadecimal e. 32 Bits Float: Select to display data in IEEE 32-bit floating point


7. HMI System Configuration General HMI system configuration can be achieved by go to [Project] �[System Configuration].

Control Address The HMI allows a slave (i.e. Arcus controller) to control HMI system settings. To use this feature select a controller parameter to control the switching of an HMI scene. In order for a controller to switch the scene of a HMI, the control address variable needs to be updated with the scene index value of the desired scene. Example: Using the settings shown above in order to switch to scene index 2, the HMI internal address [N0] must be set to value 2.

Update Time This parameter configures the polling rate of the control address parameter. The range is from [0.1 sec to 10 sec]. This will determine how quickly the scene will change after the parameter has been set.

Manu Switch Frame Selects how the HMI informs the controller that a scene has been switched. This consists of two methods.

1) [0-Write 0]: After a scene is switched, the HMI will write 0 to the control address. 2) [1-Write Scene ID]: After a scene is switched, the HMI will write the scene index

of the new scene into the control address.


Power-down Mode Power down mode can also be enabled/disabled via the system control screen. For details see the [Backlight Timer and Power Down Mode] section.


8. HMI Download and Simulation

Program Simulation Options VIEWX provides a PC simulation function that enables users to simulate the HMI on the PC without downloading the new program on the HMI. There are two approaches for PC simulation: [On-Line Run] and [Off-Line Run]. Note: Neither on-line nor off-line simulations require a PC to HMI connection.

On-Line Run This approach provides PC simulation of the HMI which includes target controller communication. Therefore it requires an actual connection between the PC and the target Arcus controller. In this mode, all operations between the HMI and the target controller can be simulated and tested. Note: On-line simulation occurs from PC to controller directly. It does not go through the HMI.

Before running the simulation set up the Communication Protocol first as shown below. Be sure to select the proper COM port in the [Simulate COM Set] tab.


1) These represent the COM1 and COM2 ports of the HMI. 2) Select the COM port on the PC that is connected to the Arcus controller.

Example: In this example we are communicating to a DMX-K-SA using VMX-30. Since the protocol has been added under the COM2 sections we know that we are using RS-485 communication.

1) Connect our RS-485 device (DMX-K-SA) to our PC via a COM port. In most cases we will need a RS-232 to RS-485 or a USB to RS-485 converter. In this case we use the ACE-USB-485 USB to RS-485 converter.

2) Setup the simulation communication settings.

1 2


Since COM1 is not used by our HMI we select [Non-use Device]. COM2 on our HMI provides the communication interface to our Arcus controller so we select [COM6 – (ACE-USB485)] as the PC COM port to simulate it.

3) We are now ready for on-line simulation.

Off-Line Run This approach does not require any connections to the PC. This approach provides PC simulation of the HMI which does NOT include target controller communication. Therefore it does NOT require an actual connection between the PC and the target Arcus controller. In this mode only internal HMI operations can be verified. Note: Off-line simulation on the PC only. It does not go through the HMI.

Program Download To download the program to the HMI, perform the following:


Before running downloading set up the Communication Protocol first as shown below. Be sure to select the proper COM port in the [Upload/Download] tab.


Saving an HMI File The VIEWX program files are saved as (*.vho) files. Be aware that this type of file can only be only used for download. Note: Editable project files have the (*.vfx) extension.


Uploading an HMI program An HMI program can be uploaded from the HMI back to the PC. Select [Tool] �[Update HMI] to upload HMI program back to the PC. When it’s completed, users are required to save HMI files with an extension of (*.vho).



9. Basic Edit Functions

12. VIEWX Components: Buttons

Adding a button

1) One way to add a button component is to select [Component] � [Button].

2) Another way to add button components is via the tool bar.


ON/OFF/Switch/Hold Button The ON/OFF/Switch/Hold buttons allows the user to perform read/write operations to single bit types. Immediately after the button is created the following configuration screen will appear.

Data

a. Action: Select action type for the button a. 0 – Set ON: Pressing the button will set the bit value on. Because b. 1 – Set OFF: Pressing the button will set the bit value off. c. 2 – Set Switch: Pressing the button will set the bit opposite of the

current state. d. 3 – Set Hold: Pressing the button will set the bit value on. Releasing

the button will set the bit value off. Note: Because Arcus bit commands do not actually accept a 0 or 1 value the ON/OFF/Switch and Hold commands all produce to same behavior. Therefore it is recommended to always use the [0 - Set On] option.

b. Read Address: Input the read address data. The data type must be of bit type. Note: Arcus bit commands do not support the read feature. However this this field must not be blank. Therefore it is recommended to always set address to be the same as the write address.

13. Operational Variables

The property setting columns shown as can be used to make settings for operators.

Mathematical Operations (1) The read address is modified to perform a mathematic calculation.

Its variable can be either an internal variable such as N0-N65535 or an external one such as a target device variable. For example: Divide EX counter � "1:EX/2"

(2) One can insert a space between the variable definition and an operator so as to make it clear to read. The space should be removed if the operator is composed of two characters. For example: _40001+_40002 is the same as _40001 + _40002

(3) The following operators can be used. Add A + B Less than A < B Bitwise exclusive

OR A ^ B

Subtract A - B Less than or equal to

A <= B Bitwise OR A | B

Multiply A * B Greater than A > B Left shift A << B Divide A / B Greater than

or equal to A >= B Right shift A >> B

Remainder A % B Logical OR A || B Minus -A Equal to A == B Logical AND A && B Logical NOT !A Not equal

to A != B Bitwise AND A & B Bitwise NOT ~A


Example: ((((N0+N1)>100)*180) & 32) << 2

(4) Definition of applicable constants:

Decimal Digit 0~9 Example: 123 or 100000 Hex Digit 0~9; alphabet A~F. It ends with

“H” and should begin with a digit rather than a letter.

Example: 100H, or 1234H, or 0ABCH, and so on.

(5) Examples:

Expression Description (R0+R1+R2+R3+R4) / 5 Take mean value between R0 and R4 (R0 * 1234) / 1000 Multiply R0 by 1.234 (R0 == 100H)||(R1 == 200H) Variable is 1 if R0 equals 100 and R1 equals 200

under the hex system; otherwise, variable is 0 R0 > R1 Value is 1 if R0 exceeds R1; otherwise, value is 0 (R0 <= R1) && (R0 == 100) Value is 1 if R1exceeds R0 and R0 equals 100;

otherwise, value is 0 R0 & R1 R0=[Binary] 0000000000001111 ->Decimal=15

R1=[Binary] 0000000000010001 ->Decimal=17 R0&R1=[Binary] 0000000000000001 ->Decimal=1

R0 << 2 R0=[Binary] 0000000000001111 ->Decimal=15 R0<<2=[Binary] 0000000000111100 ->Decimal=60


Conditionals There are six kinds of conditional operators:

Equal to == Less than < Greater than > Not Equal

to != Less than or equal to <= Greater than

or equal to >=

Conditions of a variable can be presented as an expression. In the example below, the HMI will compare the read data value of the object to the conditionals below and display the appropriate items.


14. Recipes

Recipe Parameters

Parameter Description Notes Name Define the name of the recipe

Work Address of the first parameter within the recipe. Additional parameters can be added via the recipe window.

Control Address of the first variable which controls actions of the recipe. (A total of 4 words are used [Control+0, Control+1, Control+2, Control+3])

See details in the [Control Area] section.

Backup Device

Select a recipe backup. There are two alternatives:

- [0-Read Only]: save parameters into the HMI code space. Recipe will be read-only.

- [1-System Variable]: save parameters into system variable area. Recipe will be read-write.

Backup Addr Address of the first variable within the system variable area

If [0-Read Only] is selected, this field can be left blank. Recipe parameters are automatically stored to non-volatile memory. If [1-System Variable] is selected, check that the variable address refers to non-volatile


memory. Otherwise, the recipe parameters will be reset after a power cycle.

15. Data Synchronization VIEWX provides a feature to transfer data between variables synchronously. This feature is called [Data Sync]. The data transfer is triggered by the change in state of a certain variable.

Creating a Data Sync Object

Select [Project] �[Data Sync] to open the “Data Sync Window” as shown below.

The following screen will appear. Click on [Add] to open the “Edit Data Sync” window.


Data Sync Parameters

Time: The delay between the moment the trigger condition is met and the actual data exchange. Condition: The condition that is used to generate the trigger condition. An expression can be input here. For example: [N0&1]. Type: Determines the trigger condition of the condition variable.


- Positive edge: data synchronization will occur when the variable changes from 0 to 1.

- Negative edge: data synchronization will occur when the variable changes from 1 to 0.

- Both edges: data synchronization will occur when the variable changes either from 0 to 1 or from 1 to 0.

- High readiness: data synchronization will occur when the variable is 1. - Low readiness: data synchronization will occur when the variable is 0.

Source: The data variable or constant that is used as the source for the data transfer. An expression can be input here. For example: [N100/2] or [100] Destination: The data variable that is used as the destination for the data transfer. Length: The number memory locations that will be written to during the transfer. Note that this is only valid for internal memory addresses. Example 1: Condition = N65529&1 Type = Positive Edge

Source = N100 Destination = N101 Length = 1 When bit 1 of N65529 goes high the following data will be transferred: N101 = N100 Example 2: Condition = N65529&2 Type = Positive Edge

Source = 100 Destination = N101 Length = 3 When bit21 of N65529 goes high the following data will be transferred: N101 = 100 N102 = 100 N103 = 100 Description: Description for the data sync object.


Initializing Non-volatile Memory The data sync feature can be used to initialize non-volatile memory values upon boot-up. One way to do this is to use the reserved system variable N65529. This 16-bit variable is always 0 whenever the system is booted up. After boot-up one bit is turned each second starting from bit 0. See table below.

Time after boot-up (sec) N65529 value 0 0 1 1 2 3 3 7 4 15 5 31 6 63 7 127 8 255 9 511 10 1023 11 2047 12 4095 13 8191 14 16383 15 32767 16 65535

Therefore, using the N65529 variable we can initialize parameters over the first 16 seconds of boot-up. For example, we can use the condition [N65529&1] to initialize some variables at time 1, the use condition [N65529&2] to initialize some variables at time 2 and so forth.


16. Sound VIEWX enables users to make custom sounds. These custom sounds can be configured to play during the pressing of any button.

Sound Configuration Window To open the sound configuration window select [Project] �[Sound].

Note:

- The sound object at index 1 is the default sound made when a dialog box appears. - The sound object at index 0 is the default sound made for all other operations (i.e.

jump buttons, constant write buttons, etc).

Adding a new sound To add a new sound click the [Add] button in the sound configuration window. The following screen will appear.


Name: Name of the custom sound Repeat Count: The number of times that the sounds will repeat. [Maximum value: 7] Description: Description for the sound Next click [Add Item] to add a sound item to the sound. Several sound items can be added to a sound. These items will be played in the sequence that they are added.

Frequency: Frequency of the sound. A high pitch sound corresponds to a high frequency and a low pitch sound corresponds to a low frequency. For details regarding the frequency setting see [Sound Frequency Table] section.

Time: The amount of time that the sound item will play. Units are in milliseconds. After all the settings are made the new sound can be used for any of HMI object within the project. See the example below.


17. Backlight Timer and Power-down Mode

The Backlight Timer and Power Down Mode is used to have the HMI enter Power Down Mode when it is not in operation. The Power Down Mode will adjust backlighting to a lower level or shut down backlighting entirely to save energy and extend life expectancy of the LED backlight.

Backlight Timer / Power Down Mode Registers Code Name Description Default value Note

N65026 Time mode of Backlight Timer

VIEWX allows the user to make these settings via the GUI. Select [Project] from Menu Bar, and then click on [System Configuration] �[Power Down Mode].


18. HMI Program Protection

VIEWX allows the user to set password protection on uploading, downloading and editing. Thus there are 3 different types of passwords.

Note that users can add a password hint 14 characters. To disable the password feature leave the field blank.

Within the VIEWX editing environment there is no need to enter a password when using the [ download to HMI] function. Password verification is only required when one saves the HMI program as a [*.vho] file.

Any subsequent [ download HMI program] , [ upload HMI program] or edits of that file will require password verification.


19. Permission Protection When operating various units of the equipment, different groups of users usually have different levels of authority for the same equipment. To address this, the GP series provides a convenient means for password and authority management.

Setting a permission level The VIEWX provides two approaches for setting security levels.

1) Add permissions to specific components of a scene. 2) Add permissions to the whole scene.

Component permission setting To add permissions to certain categories of components (usually [Button Component] or [Edit Component]), we can make security setting for the components through the component setting procedure.

Scene permission setting

Permission for an entire scene can be set by navigating to the [Scene Properties Window].


Managing Passwords The GP series can hold up to 8 passwords which allows for users to have multiple passwords for a certain permission level. There are two ways to manage the permission passwords. Note that there is not password for [Level 3] because no password will be necessary for any components/scenes with a [Level 3] permission level.

1) Via VIEWX interface: Click on [Project] �[Password] to open [Password Window] as shown below.

VIEWX provides eight sets of passwords and three levels of security. The first password is mandated with the highest level of authority.


2) User input via the HMI:

Note that to do this the user will need to use the [Password Edit] object.


20. Tags The tag feature allows the user to input variable references into a table which will allow for easier access and quicker development.

Creating a tag group

1) To add a new tag group click on the [Tag] tab in the main window and then right click click [Add Tag Group].

2) Next insert a group name and click [OK].

3) A new tab will be created within the tag window. Once this is done you can begin adding your own custom tags.


Creating a tag

1) To add a new tag click select your custom tag group that you created, right click and select [Add Tag]

2) Insert custom tag information and click [OK].

a. Group: Select group that you want the new tag to belong to. b. Name: Create a name for the tag c. Address: Input the address for this tag. This can be an HMI internall address

or an address from an Arcus controller. d. Max: Input the maximum allowable value for the data stored in the address.


e. Min: Input the minimum allowable value for the data stored in the address. f. Description: Provide a description for this tag.

3) Once the tag has been added it will be added to the menu shown below.

4) Once the tag has been successfully loaded the tag reference will be automatically displayed in all address field drop-down menus. See example below for [Numeric Display]. Notice that the [VARIABLE 0] tag is now available through the drop down menu.


21. Importing/Exporting VIEWX software allows the user to import and export settings to and from your project which saves the user a lot of time when creating different HMI programs for a single system. The following items allow for import and export:

- Scene - Tag - Sound - Alarm - Data Sync - Data Record - Data Schedule - Dictionary - Recipe

To import settings to a project go to: [File] � [Import]

To export settings from a project go to: [File] � [Export]
