Chapter 1 Configure the Controller Application
Controller Template Overview
Controller templates provide the necessary task configurations that are required for the PlantPAx system. Controller
template options also are provided with pre-loaded PlantPAx Library content if the PlantPAx Library is to be used. Library
content definitions use controller memory, so use the guidance in Table 2
when selecting the appropriate template for your
application.
For each controller, you must choose one of three templates to begin system configuration. Table 2
and Tabl e 3 show the
templates that are recommended (denoted by ‘X’) based on the selected controller.
IMPORTANT
Controller templates are distributed with the PlantPAx Library of Process Objects. To download the templates, see Knowledgebase
