ABT-SSA
In ABT-SSA (Setup & Service Assistant) you commission I/Os and carry out the point test.
See
Desigo TRA - Setup & Service Assistant
(CM11105).
In ABT-SSA you can:
● Assign network points (DALI to device), make points available
● Test if the points work
● Define parameters, e.g., time, desired value, default value, etc.
4.13 Programming in D-MAP
Programming is based on D-MAP principles (Desigo Modular Application Programming), where you
assemble blocks into compounds and then you build hierarchically structured solutions using those
compounds.
● In Xworks Plus (XWP) you program in the CFC Classic editor.
● In the Automation Building Tool (ABT) you program in the CFC Plus editor.
The CFC editors have a different look and feel. Their basic functions and basic library blocks are almost
identical.
Programming in XWP for Desigo PX
The Program View describes the concepts and elements on which D-MAP is based: libraries, compounds,
blocks, variables, data types and attributes.
The P&I diagram
The Program View is based on the P&I (Process & Instrumentation) diagram. The P&I diagram illustrates
the plant and the associated instrumentation in the form of a principles diagram.
