About this Manual

This training guide provides an overview of the

Sucosoft S 30-S4 programming package and the
PS 4-141-MM1 and PS 4-151-MM1.
The manual introduces the handling of Sucosoft
S 30-S4 using the example of a control application
from creating your own program file to commission
the IL program in the controller.
The following example is executed with the
PS 4-141-MM1; but the program can also be used
for the PS 4-151-MM1 without modifications. When
configuring the device, the PS 4-151-MM1 must be
stated. The both controllers differ from each other in
the following points:

9/96 AWB 27-1272-GB

MS-DOS operating system from version 3.0

Sucosoft S 30-S4 programming software from
version 2.0
The installation of Sucosoft S 30-S4 is described
in the manual Installation, Operation,
Documentation (AWB 27-1185-GB).

Task Definition

The PS 4-141-MM1 in conjunction with the external

module EM 4-201-DX2 and a LE 4-116-XD1 local
expansion module connected to it has the task to
execute a tank level control.
The tank shown in the following figure is meant to
buffer deviations in the supply volume and keep the
drain valve Y0 open as long as possible in order to
supply a bottling plant. When the start button S3 is
pressed, the lamp H1 is permanently lit to indicate
that the plant is in operation.
The supply is meant to keep the tank level at
maximum. The limit switches S0 and S1 enable the
switch hysteresis of the inlet valve Y1 to be
implemented, i.e. when the liquid level drops to the
level of limit switch S1, the inlet valve Y1 is opened,
and is closed when the level reaches limit switch S0.
If more water drains out of the tank than goes in, and
therefore the water level continues to drop even
though the inlet valve is open, the drain valve Y0 will
close as soon as the tank level goes below switch S2.
It will not open again until the level has reached
switch S0.

9/96 AWB 27-1272-GB

The plant can be switched off via the S4 stop button.

Y0 = 0/1: Drain valve closed/open

Installing and Wiring the Controller

Five inputs are required for switches S0, S1, S2, S3

and S4, and three outputs are required for the valves
Y0, Y1 and lamp H1. The PS 4-141-MM1 is thus able
to handle the control task on its own. However, the
network solution in this example has been selected
to show you how to use the additional networking
functions of the PS 4-141-MM1.

Address coding

The station address of the EM 4-201-DX2 must be

set before the PS 41-141-MM1 is networked and
wired with the EM 4-201-DX2 and the connected
LE 4-116-XD1.
Set the address coding switch S2 for the selected
station address 1 and the Suconet K protocol as
follows (see also AWB 27-1257-GB, Page 515ff.):

Setting System Parameters

The system parameters determine the system

configuration of the control system. These
specifications are compiled and then transferred to
the controller together with the user program.
The default values need not be modified for the tank
level control system. However, since the setting in
the System Parameters menu is required in many
applications, the steps required for this are
described below:

SYSTEM
PARAMETERS

Call up the SYSTEM PARAMETERS menu from the

main menu of Sucosoft S 30-S4 by pressing the
function keys [F1] PROGRAMMING and [F3]
SYSTEM PARAMETERS.
Since the system parameters form part of the user
program, you are requested to enter the name of the
program file and the appropriate drive.
Enter the drive (e. g. C) and the file name (e. g.
PLANT2).

Start after NOT READY

The controller is to carry out a cold start after Not
Ready. In this case, all dynamic variables and
program sections are reset to the previously set
value before the PLC starts to process the user
program.
Enter a 1 into the entry field

12

9/96 AWB 27-1272-GB

Press the function key [F2] SYSTEM

PARAMETERS and enter the stated values for the
following fields.

SYSTEM PARAMETERS
Maximum cycle time
This setting does not control the cycle time of the
user program but sets an upper limit for the fault
control.
Set the maximum cycle time to 35 ms.
Active marker range
Make this setting in accordance with your user
program since all active markers require memory.
Three marker bits are required for the user program.
Enter a 1 in this line (1 marker byte).
Password
Assign a password of max. 8 characters to protect
the controller from unauthorized access.
Enter, for example, the name test2.
Version number for user program
The user program has the version number 1.0.

You should now be in the PROGRAMMING menu.

Configure Stations

Once the system parameters are defined in the

Device configurator of the Sucosoft S30-S4,
configure the stations of the control system. Figure 6
Wiring of the control system shows which devices
are to be configured.
Call up the Device configurator from the
PROGRAMMING menu by pressing the function
key [F4]:
You will be asked for the name of the program file
and the drive since the Device configurator is also
part of the user program.
Enter the drive C and the file name PLANT2.
Select F2 CONFIGURE.
In this menu you can expand the PS 4-141-MM1 with
the EM 4-201-DX2 remotely. The EM 4-201-DX2 is
then expanded locally with an LE4-116-XD1.
Proceed as follows:
Select F4 Replace module and select the
PS 4-141-MM1 in the selection window. Confirm
by clicking Return.
Select F2 Add station and select the station
EM 4-201-DX2 in the selection window.
Select F3 Add module and select the module
LE 4-116-XD1 in the selection window.

You will now have returned to the PROGRAMMING

menu.

Addressing Stations

In order to create the program in the IL editor you

have to know how the inputs and outputs of the
individual stations are to be addressed. The
addressing of the stations depends on the logical
configuration that you carried out in the Device
configurator.
Figure 6 Wiring of the control system shows how
the switches and valves of the I/O are to be assigned
to the devices. This data is also required by the PLC
in order to address the stations. The stations are
addressed according to the general sy ntax rule:
Operand-data type-line-station-module-byte-bit

9/96 AWB 27-1272-GB

Address elements

The data type must not be stated when

addressing in bit format.

The table below show how the values defined in the

example are assigned to the seven address
elements:

Transferring the Program to the

PS 4-141-MM1

The compiler has now converted the program into a

code which understands the P S4-141-MM1.

Requirements

Before you can transfer the program to the

PS 4-141-MM1 the following steps must be taken:
Connect the PC to the controller using the
ZB 4-303-KB1 programming cable.

Switch on the 24 V DC power supply for the

controller. The controller must be in Ready or Not
Ready status. This is indicated by the Ready LED
(yellow) or the Not Ready LED (red). Not Ready is
lit if, for example, there is no program stored in
the controller.

Transfer
Proceed as follows to transfer the program to the
controller:

Transfer

Press the function key [F1] to change to the MAIN

MENU.
Confirm the function keys one after another:
[F2] TEST/COMMISSIONING and
[F6] TRANSFER DRIVE PLC
Enter the program name (PLANT2) and the
corresponding drive (C).
The LEDs Ready and Not Ready are lit during the
transfer process. The program is now stored in the
controller.

The PS 4-141-MM1 is then in Run status and you

can test your program using the task definition.
Program modifications can be carried out in the IL
editor or in the ONLINE editor.

Online Program Modifications

The ONLINE MODIFICATION function is particulary

useful during commissioning. It enables you to carry
out program modifications while the PS 4-141-MM1
is in operation. The following modifications are
possible:
Opening new blocks
Inserting instructions and allocations
Deleting instructions and allocations
Modifying jumps and jump destinations
Changing function block parameters
Press the function key [F5] in the TEST/
COMMISSIONING menu.
Enter the name of the drive (C) and the name of
the file (PLANT2).

Select [F2] EDIT PROGRAM FILE in the ONLINE

MODIFICATION menu to change the program.

Figure 14: Online modification, Edit program file

Please observe the following section:

Care should be taken when carrying out online
program modifications in order to ensure the
safety of personnel and machinery.
Do not switch off your PC before you have left the
ONLINE MODIFICATION menu with [F1] Return.
Otherwise your program in the programmable
controller will no longer correspond with the source file on the data carrier.
Once the Online modification has been successfully completed, a new compiler run should
be carried out and the program transferred to the
PS 4-141-MM1 with the CPU stopped. This minimizes the load on the program memory.
