1. Define the project settings, add the building elements and the PXC4/5.
2. Set up the physical and the Modbus devices and data points in the I/O Configuration and
Modbus editors respectively.
3. Program the primary functionality for the PXC4/5.
4. Add, engineer and configure any DXRs or Desigo Control Point if needed.
5. Finally, to commission the project use either ABT Site or the mobile app ABT Go or
access the embedded web server using a web browser.
The flexible workflow also allows to use an existing plant or a plant sample from the library
as a starting point for the PXC4/5 and freely modify it (step 3), and set up the physical and
Modbus data points (step 2).
Efficiency and security
Several users can work concurrently on different devices within the same project.
Data points, Modbus devices as well as plants or any parts of them can be added to a user
specific custom library for future use for easy exchange with other users.
ABT Site comes with a number of predefined users, user roles, and user settings. The
password policy defines the minimum requirements to attain a strong password. There are
additional features like adding an expiration date for a password or using blocking
mechanisms for computerized log in attempts to enhance the security aspect.
Desigo room automation
Project workflow with ABT Site
First, create the project-specific application templates in ABT Site. The templates can easily
and efficiently be configured based on preloaded applications or libraries. An automation
station type is assigned to each application template. Freely programmable application
templates are taken over directly from ABT Pro for PXC3 series modular room automation
stations, but also for the DXR2...
After determining the building structure, create the automation stations by selecting them
from the existing application templates and add them to the structure.
Then, commission and load the project data and carry out point test.
Concurrent work during commissioning
Several users can work concurrently on different automation stations within the same project
on the plant. To this end, the components to be loaded are checked out (Pack & Go) to allow
users, e.g. installers, to configure (add/edit/delete automation stations/application templates)
or load the program followed by data point testing. The test results are saved to the
automation station and can be viewed any time by the commissioning engineer and read
back into the engineering database.
Desigo Control Point
Project workflow with ABT Site
No engineering is required to prepare standard operating views.
The offline engineering workflow is fully integrated for Desigo devices in ABT Site:
● Building hierarchy
● Device assignment
● Create graphics
Graphics engineering in the runtime system via HTML 5.0 web browser.
Graphics library with a large number of templates and symbols.
The operating interface for technical operators and end users is created using the same
engineering solution. Tool-free device commissioning. Commissioning using wizard-assisted
setup is performed directly on the touch panel or using an HTML5 browser. The devices are
operated using standard operating views. Graphics can be created or edited online using the
integrated graphics editor.
The runtime system must always recognize and integrate standard BACnet devices.
