Workflow for primary systems

Working in parallel during service
A service technician can connect with the plant by remote and make changes. To do this, data is
transferred from the Branch Office Server to the local hard disk. After the technician is done, the changes
are transferred back to the Branch Office Server, so that the project database is up-to-date again.
Subcontracting
Project-specific solutions can be developed outside the project organisation and specific tasks, such as
configuration and point test can be outsourced to subcontractors.
If you outsource specific tasks, make sure that:
● The work packages for the subcontracting can be easily transferred to the subcontractor
● The subcontractor's work can be documented
● The changed data can be transferred back to the engineering database
4.7 Workflow for primary systems
XWP Project Manager
Create project:
● Create project
● Check project in on Branch Office Server (BOS) and define access to project
● Define project defaults
● Create control cabinet topology (local specification of the automation station, e.g., control cabinet view)
XWP Hierarchy Viewer and XWP Network Configurator
Create project structure (the building structure is system-oriented):
● Create project structure
● Create building topology (building, building parts, etc.)
● Create system topology (sites)
● Create network topology (XWP Network Configurator, third party devices, router, computer)
● BACnet references from third party devices and between primary system and room (demand signals,
supervisory)
● ACP (passwords for accessing the automation stations)
XWP Point Configurator
Create systems:
● Define systems (systems, system sections, components, data points) (solutions, data points, I/O
modules)
● Configure the operations (XWP Hierarchy Viewer)
– configure the generic operation
– Configure the project-specific operation (favorites)
