Application Code Manager

Engineering Design Tool:

Rapid application development

Requires library content (provided or custom)

Error free software

Enforce standards

Facilitates continuous re-use of IP

Auto content generation of:

Logix Designer

FactoryTalk View

FactoryTalk Alarm and Events

FactoryTalk Historian


Library Management

Project Execution

Versioning

System

Logix View

A&E Historian

Object Grouping

Object Decoration

Object Extraction ObjectObject

Object Select & Config.

Object Instantiation

Object Replacement

Effective Content ManagementA more comprehensive workflow


Quickly configure project content by selecting library objects and providing

specific project configuration data

Once configuration, not programming is complete, easily automatically

generate the project data

Project Execution

Project ExecutionLeveraging Library Objects

Content generated is via library objects

Objects can be highly parameterize, controlling . . Instance name, description, instantiation location, etc..

Tag Values

Conditional Inclusion (routine, rung, tag, etc..)

Referencing of objects to other objects

Interlocks / permissive


Project ExecutionApplication Code Manager

Project Tree

Object Configurations

Available Libraries


Project ExecutionObject Configuration Examples


Bulk ConfigurationImport / Export Manager

Optional, not required in some workflows, Simplifies the configuration process

Configuration data can be exchanged between ACM and Microsoft Excel


Easily update objects used in a projectFrom “Used Libraries”

If a new object revision becomes available, easily update your

configuration data

Select specific instances


Easily Generate Project ReportsView and Print Reports

Library usage, hardware layout, object references, IO schedule, project

history, etc.


Project ExecutionComplete the Configuration


Generate CodeWhen ready build your project code


Library Management

Management of Object composition . . .

Content to be instantiated

i.e. Valve Logic

Decoration to control how content is to be instantiated

i.e. Name, tag values, location (routines), mapping, etc..

Packaging

Associate

Logix, View, A&E and Historian content

Distribute

File (distribute as required)

Database (centralized)


Creating Library Content

15

Integrated into Logix Designer

Launch within Logix Designer

Library Decoration is persisted within ACD file

Integrated into ACM Library Object Manager

Wizards for FactoryTalk View and FactoryTalk Historian content

FactoryTalk Alarms and Events Configuration


Create Library Objects in Logix Designer

16

Optionally include dependencies

AOIs, UDTs, Controller Tags


Library Object Composition

Create, update, delete library objects

File (distribute as required)

Database (centralized)

Add FTView, FTAE and Historian content *

* Under construction


Summary

One Library Management tool for Process, Batch, Safety, Motion &

Discrete applications

Provides efficiency and accuracy in generating software

Automatic Instantiation, ideal goal 100% for Logix

Significant Project Execution time reduction

Open Library Management (create, update, delete, distribute, version)

Tight integration into Logix, providing ease of use

37


Application Code Manager

Initial Release

Target, mid-late 2015

Subsequent releases not tied to Logix

Enhanced Instantiation

Enhanced Roundtrip engineering

GUI Enhancements

Additional I/O Modules Support

Integration into Studio 5000 Architect release, Target CY2017
