Configuration continues by calling the SINAUT configuration tool.
Note
From the network configuration, not only the
Save
but also the
Save and Compile...
function
can be called that generates the system data blocks (SDB) after saving the configuration.
To acquire all the configured parameters of the TD7 software when generating the SDBs
both in new projects or when making modifications to the configuration of existing SINAUT
installations, the generation of SDBs for SINAUT networks should only be performed in the
Subscriber Administration
of the SINAUT configuration tool.

1.7.1 Working with the SINAUT ST7 configuration tool
The SINAUT ST 7 configuration software fits into the familiar Windows sequences. This
means that functions such as
● Window technology
● Menu bar
● Toolbar
● Online help for the dialogs of the configuration software
● Online help for the TD7 blocks
● Printing
are integrated according to the Windows and STEP 7 standards. Working with the
configuration tool is explained in the individual sections of the chapter.
General information on working with the tool
You select a menu or a graphic object by clicking once with the left mouse button.
Further functions for this object are then available over the menu bar, over the buttons of the
toolbar or often over a context menu that opens when you select an object with the right
mouse button.
The buttons for the properties dialogs available for configuration have the following functions:
●
OK:
Confirms the entries made and closes the dialog.
●
Cancel:
Entries made are ignored and the dialog is closed.
The
Cancel
button is not available in the dialogs for subscriber administration in the
SINAUT configuration tool. In this case, the dialog is closed without entering changes by
clicking on the close button [x] in the right-hand top corner of the header line of the dialog.
