Presentation of the range

The main functions of Magelis compact display units are:

• Displaying data issued by the control system
• Modifying control-system parameters
• Controlling a process using discrete commands

These display units communicate with PLCs via an integrated serial link in point-to-point mode (or multipoint, multidrop for XBT N401s, NU400s, R410s and R411s). The communication protocols are the same as for Schneider Electric PLCs (Uni-Telway, Modbus master and slave).

2. The XBT L100• program

Presentation

XBT L100• is the configuration software for the Magelis range of operator terminals.

This software runs on computers using Windows 98SE, 2000 and XP operating systems.

Installation

In order to use XBT L100• software, the following minimum configuration is required:

• PC Pentium II 350 MHz
• 4x CD-ROM minimum
• Microsoft 98SE, 2000 or XP
  -128 MB RAM
• 30 MB of space available on the hard disk
• SVGA video card or better
• Mouse or compatible pointing device

To install the XBT L100• software, insert the CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive and follow the on-screen instructions.

If the installation program does not run automatically, select Run from the Start menu. Then, type "D:\SETUP.EXE" (where D: is your CD-ROM drive) and press Enter. During installation, you will be asked which protocols and components you wish to install.

Installation of the Xway driver is launched automatically after installation of XBT L100•. This driver is used to transfer applications between the PC and the display unit.

Once installed, this driver can be configured from the Windows control panel.

The USB drivers are not installed automatically, but are included on the XBT-L100• installation CD-ROM. These drivers are requested automatically by Windows when the USB cable is connected to the PC.

They can also be installed by connecting the USB cable.

Functions

The XBT L100• configuration software is used to create applications that can be used by Magelis display units, in which it will be possible to:

- Create different types of page:

• application pages
• alarm pages

These pages can contain all sorts of variables predefined in XBT L100•. Different properties can be assigned to them.

• Configure function keys to perform commands on the machine, or call up application pages
• Import the list of PL7 (Junior/Micro/Pro), Concept and Twidosoft type PLC symbols, to avoid double entry of variables

XBT L100• also supports the monitoring of applications created with the software in the design office, without using a display unit or a PLC.

The simulation program is used in conjunction with the computer keys to test:

• Navigation between pages
• Entering variables
• Displaying variables
• Managing alarms
• Etc.

WARNING

LOSS OF CONTROL

• Loss of communication between the display unit and the PLC can result in partial or complete loss of control of the machine.
• Check the display-unit connection by monitoring the "Communication monitoring" word in the dialog table via the PLC program.

Failure to follow this instruction can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Protection

To ensure only authorized persons are able to read and write data, it is possible to protect:

• Access to pages
• Modification of fields
• Control via functional links

If an operator does not have authorization:

• Protected pages no longer appear in the list of pages
• Protected fields behave as if they had been configured as read-only

The password is entered via the "Password" system page. A navigation link to the "Password" system page is required on one of the application pages. (For more information about how system pages are displayed, see section "6. System pages", Page 39).

Telemecanique Magelis PASSWORD : CURRENT LEVEL RESET 0→

There are three access levels: A, B and C.

These passwords are defined in XBT L100•. A password consists of four alphanumeric characters (default value 1111).

WARNING

UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS

A display unit must only be installed and used by authorized personnel.

Failure to follow this instruction can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Control-system architectures

Protocols

Communication between the display unit and connected equipment is achieved by means of a communication protocol, which is selected when creating the application in XBT L100•.

The protocols available for the range support communication with the Schneider range of PLCs, specific equipment (speed drives), etc.

These protocols are Uni-Telway and Modbus (master and slave).

There are several types of architecture, which enable one display unit to be linked to several devices or several display units to one device.

Point-to-point connection

One display unit linked to one device.

1. Introduction: Display unit operating concepts

■ Principle of application pages

Definition

Application pages are pages designed to provide information about the control-system architecture being run. They also serve to clarify any operation that the operator might have to perform in a given context.

Application pages can be interlinked to create authorized sequences during operation (see chapter C, section Functional links, Page 51).

Unauthorized operators can be prevented from displaying protected pages (see chapter C, section Protecting a page, Page 28)

■ Principle of system pages

Definition

System pages are predefined pages, which are used to perform operations relating to the display unit "system".

In run mode, these pages can be accessed in the same way as application pages.

System pages are pages processed as if they were application type pages. Hence they are stored with the application pages in the developed application file.

There are 3 types of system page:

• Standard system pages, which can be called by accessing an application page (numbers 1 to 100)
• System pages, which cannot be called by accessing an application page (numbers 101 to 200)
• Popup/message system pages, which cannot be called (numbers 201 to 300)

XBT ref. Note
/	/

1. Introduction: Display unit operating concepts

(For more information about how system pages are displayed, see section "6. System pages", Page 39.)

The advantage of being able to view these pages with XBT L100• is that system messages can be translated or customized.

Principle of alarm pages

Objective

An alarm page has the same characteristics as an application page with respect to:

• The text
• The field

The advantage of an alarm page lies in its event-triggered display. Each alarm page has an associated dialog-table word bit (see chapter C, section 4. Dialog table, Page 53).

If the bit is at state 1, the page is displayed and the text blinks.

A 31/01 17:35 3/7 CONVEYOR FAULT Switch off. Remove the part.

XBT ref. Note
N200 No alarm management

1. Introduction: Display unit operating concepts

Advantages in run mode

• When a fault appears, it is often the consequence of other faults. MAGELIS products, due to their priority system, can display the most important fault, i.e., that presenting the highest risk to the control-system architecture.
• All faults are time-stamped on appearance.

The actual display of an alarm depends on the priority it has been allocated (see section "Display priority", Page 19).

Alarms pending on the control-system architecture are stored in an "Alarm list".

ALARM

• The "Alarm" indicator light continuously informs the operator about the state of the alarm list:
• Off: The alarm list is empty.
• Blinking: The alarm list contains alarms, which have appeared since the alarm list was viewed (new alarms).
• On: The alarm list contains alarms, which occurred before the alarm list was viewed (alarms already displayed).

■ Display priority

A priority can be associated with each alarm page. An alarm page has priority over an application page and a system page. An alarm page does not have priority over a value, which is currently being entered.

Different alarm pages may have different priorities. There are 16 possible levels of priority (the lowest display priority being priority no. 16).

XBT ref. Note
N200 No alarm management
N200/N400/N410NU400R400/R410	No indicator lights

1. Introduction: Display unit operating concepts

Exception for priority 0

If priority 0 is allocated to an alarm page, when the alarm appears on the control-system architecture:

• The alarm page is not displayed, but stored in the alarm list, thus the current display will not be disturbed.
• The alarm indicator light blinks to signal the alarm.

When an alarm is activated, it is stored in the alarm list by the display unit.

Appearance types

There are several types of appearance for an alarm page.

Alarm pages can be:

• Displayed directly on the screen
• Printed directly (data-stream printing) ^(1)
• Stored in the list of current alarms

For more information, see chapter C, section Page appearance types, Page 30.

■ Storage principle in the alarm list

If the alarms have equal priority, they are stored from the oldest to the most recent.

If the display unit is available (i.e., not occupied by a higher-priority display), the oldest alarm is displayed. In a control system it is often the oldest alarm, which is the most interesting, as the more recent alarms are often a consequence of the fault signaled by the first alarm (classic case of bursts of alarms).

If higher-priority alarms appear:

• They are stored at the top of the list.
• If the display unit is available (i.e., not occupied by a higher-priority display), the highest priority new alarm is displayed.

XBT ref. Note
N200 No alarm management

1. Introduction: Display unit operating concepts

Acknowledgment of alarms

When designing pages, it is possible to define whether the alarm page should be acknowledged systematically by the operator or not (obligatory acknowledgment).

The alarm page is acknowledged on the display by pressing ENTER. The alarm message changes to a steady display.

Depending on the choice made, management of these 2 types of alarm is as follows:

1 - Alarms, which must be acknowledged (obligatory)

An alarm, which must be acknowledged, remains in the alarm list until it is acknowledged by the operator, even if the cause of the fault has disappeared.

Advantage: Picks up transient faults (instability of a discrete sensor, for example).

2 – Alarms, which can be acknowledged but do not have to be

An alarm, which can be acknowledged but does not have to be, disappears from the alarm list as soon as the cause of the fault has disappeared, regardless of whether or not it has been acknowledged by the operator.

Advantage: The display unit is not monopolized by displays of faults considered of minor importance to the application.

Alarm log

The display units can manage a log of the alarm pages. They store the alarm pages with the text, but without variable values (for more information, see section Alarm log, Page 41).

1. Introduction: Display unit operating concepts

■ Display unit self-tests

■ Self-test on power-up

When the display unit is powered up, the following self-tests are performed:

The working memory (RAM)	Writing/reading	Value read different from value written	Operation impossible: STOP
The firmware Checksum calculation and checking		Calculated checksum <> Stored checksum	Operation impossible: STOP
The application memory	Checksum calculation and checking	Calculated checksum <> Stored checksum	Operation impossible: Transfer compulsory

Continuous self-test

A continuous self-test checks that the program is operating correctly (watchdog).

NOTE: If a problem is detected, which prevents operation of the product, the display unit turns off all its indicator lights, stops working and displays an error number (if the detected fault permits it to do so). If the same problem appears after the display unit is switched back on, inform the maintenance department of this error number.

Exception for XBT R display units:

Keys F1 to F12 are dual-label Fx/Nx (function/numeric) keys. They can act as both function keys and input keys.

They operate as follows:

• If the user is not modifying a value, the keys act as function keys.
• If the user is modifying the value of a field, the keys automatically act as input keys.

NOTE: It is impossible to enter a value if a function key has been pressed, in the same way that it is impossible to leave input mode if the value of a field is being modified.

3. Sending commands to the control system

The display unit writes to the PLC dialog table.

NOTE: Pressing both function keys simultaneously triggers both functions.

Commands sent via functional links

Functional links are used to create additional control functions. To do this, the operator uses the and keys located on each side of the screen.

The application designer can therefore give the operator the option of sending commands to equipment from the application page.

Commands may be one of two types:

• Impulse
• Toggle

4. Application pages

These pages are configured and developed by the application designer in XBT L100•.

They are used to display all the information required to control the equipment connected to the display unit.

■ Display of an application page

On power-up (default page)

When designing the application in XBT L100•, the operator can select a default page.

When the display unit is powered up, this is the first page to be displayed.

Via function keys

It is possible to display a page directly by pressing a function key.

4. Application pages

Via a navigation link

As with function keys, it is possible to reach a page directly via navigation links.

Telemecanique Magelis Temperature Navigation link ESC F1 F2 F3 F4 ENTER

Via the PLC

The display is the result of a word in the dialog table in which the program has written the number of the page to be processed (see chapter C, section 4. Dialog table, Page 53).

    I["(4) Write acknowledgment 'Page to be processed' H'FFFF'"] --> D

XBT ref. Note
/	/

4. Application pages

The PLC dialog table contains the "Page to be processed" word (1). The display unit reads the dialog table in the PLC (2) and displays the desired page (3).

Once the command has been processed, the display unit writes the value "H'FFFF" in the "Page to be processed" word (4), which tells the PLC program that the display request has been acknowledged.

From system pages

System pages are used to display application pages.

LIST OF PAGES LIST OF ALARMS

For more information about access to system pages, see section "6. System pages", Page 39.

Scrolling within a page

Scrolling is necessary to view the whole of a page, which contains more lines than the screen is capable of displaying. On display, the first n (n being the number of lines on the display unit) lines on the page are displayed. For example, four lines for the XBT N400 display unit.

5. Alphanumeric fields

Input/Modification of a value

Selection of an input field

By the operator

The input field should be visible on screen. Selection is made using the MOD key:

Pressing the MOD key on the display unit keypad several times in succession runs through the variable fields in input mode from left to right and then from top to bottom.

field no. 1 field no. 2 field no. 3 field no. 4 field no. 5 screen area

1st time MOD is pressed:

If no input has been made in any field on the screen since the page was displayed, the top left-hand field on the screen is the input field (field no. 1).

Otherwise it is the last one to have been entered (field no. 1, 2, 3 or 4).

We will assume that field no. 1 is the input field.

2nd time MOD is pressed: Input field no. 2

3rd time MOD is pressed: Input field no. 3

4th time MOD is pressed: Input field no. 4

5th time

MOD is pressed: Input field no. 1, etc.

Field no. 5 cannot be the input field (it is not visible on screen).

XBT ref. Note
N200 No scrolling
N400/N401/N410NU400	For display units in “input” mode only

By the pilot device

The connected device changes a variable field to input mode by writing its number in a word in the dialog table. The number of variable fields can be displayed in the XBT L100• using the Display/Number of fields menu.

First, the application program of the connected device should ensure, again via the dialog table, that the application page where the field appears is actually being displayed. Otherwise there is a risk of selecting a field on another page.

In return, the display writes the number of the field being completed in a word in the dialog table (see chapter C, section 4. Dialog table, Page 53).

Specific feature of this type of selection:

The operator cannot select another variable field until he has completed the one requested by the connected device (MOD key inactive).

■ Entering a value ^(1)

When a field is in input mode, the whole field blinks and three input methods are available: accelerated incremental input, thumbwheel input or direct input.

• Accelerated incremental input: The total value of the field is increased or decreased by pressing keys and .
• Thumbwheel input: First, the digit to be modified is selected and it starts blinking when keys and are pressed. (These keys are managed in the same way as a "drum". This means that on reaching one end of the variable field, you go back to the other end). Next, when keys and are pressed, the digit values are displayed in one direction or the other (these keys are also managed in the same way as a "drum").

Confirming an input

ENTER key

The value entered is transmitted to the connected device. Refreshment of the field, which was in input mode, is active again.

Canceling an input

ESC key

• No write action is performed to the control system
• The value prior to input is redisplayed
• Refreshment of the field, which was in input mode, is active again.

If no key is pressed for more than one minute, input mode is abandoned automatically:

• No write action is performed to the control system
• The value prior to input is redisplayed
• Refreshment of the field, was in input mode, is active again.

Input report

At the end of input, the pilot device is informed of how the input ended:

• Confirmation
• Cancellation
• Time out

by updating the "Report" word in the dialog table (see chapter C, section 7. Description of dialog-table words, Page 65).

The system pages are accessed by means of function keys or navigation links.

When designing the application in XBT L100•, the operator can choose which system pages he wishes to associate with these keys, or these links.

The system pages, which can be accessed by the operator, are:

• Date / Time
• List of pages
• Password
• Language
• Reference
• Protocols
• Manage log
• View log
• Manage alarm list
• View alarm list
• Configure printer

■ Display from the dialog table

During the dialog table read cycle, the display unit may need to display a system page.

For more information about how system pages are displayed by the dialog table, see chapter C, section 7. Description of dialog-table words, Page 65.

7. Alarm pages

Alarm displays

When an alarm is displayed, the first line on the display unit is preconfigured (by XBT L100•) to show:

• the dates and times of alarm appearance/disappearance and acknowledgment
• the alarm rank in the alarm list
• the total number of alarms in the list

An alarm is displayed blinking:

A 31/01 17:35 3/4 CONVEYOR FAULT Switch off. Remove the part.

Line time-stamped by the XBT ("A" for Alarm), the alarm text appears blinking and changes to a steady display once it has been acknowledged.

■ Possibility of ignoring alarms

If an alarm is displayed during operation, the ESC key can be used to return to run mode, the alarm is still in the list, and the ALARM indicator light changes to a steady display.

Viewing alarms

Exit viewing alarm pages.

Scroll through the alarm page (up to 25 lines).

Scroll through the list of alarm pages.

The alarm is acknowledged on the display by pressing ENTER. The alarm message changes to a steady display.

Alarm log

B

Log principles

Alarms are stored one after another. Once the log is full, new alarms overwrite the oldest alarms.

In this way each alarm event (appearance, acknowledgment, disappearance see section Appearance types, Page 20) is recorded and time-stamped.

NOTE: In order for an alarm page to be stored in the log, the store option must be enabled for the page (see chapter C, section Page appearance types, Page 30).

The following functions can be executed:

- initiated by the PLC:

- print log

-clear log

- initiated by the operator:

- view log

- print log

-clear log

XBT ref. Note
N200 No alarm management

7. Alarm pages

NOTE: On XBT N display units, the log is not saved (when the display unit is switched off, the log is cleared).

On XBT R display units, the retention period for the log is limited to twelve hours. Beyond that time there is a possibility that the log will be cleared.

View the log

The alarm log can be viewed from the "MENU" system page (see section Principle of system pages, Page 17).

LIST OF ALARMS → ALARMS LOG →

Once inside the log, you can browse through the various alarms (see section Viewing alarms, Page 40).

Clear the log

Clearing initiated by the operator:

In the “MENU” system page select ALARMS LOG and then in the following page select CLEAR.

Clearing initiated by the PLC:

The log is cleared by means of the log reset command word in the dialog table (see chapter C, section Clear log/Advanced functions, Page 78).

XBT ref. Note
N400/N401/N410NU400	For display units in “input” mode only

Principles

Printing can be initiated by the operator or by the PLC.

The following print functions are available:

• Print alarms as a data stream
• Print the alarm log
• Print the list of current alarms

Print alarms as a data stream

The alarm name and status is printed whenever an alarm status changes.

The following information is printed:

• The alarm number
• The name of the alarm page
• The print date
• The print time
• The alarm status

NOTE: In order for an alarm page to be printed, the print option must be enabled for the page (see chapter C, section Page appearance types, Page 30).

Print the alarm log

■ Initiated by the operator

The log is printed in sequential order (sorted by status), with the most recent alarm at the top.

The following information is printed for each alarm:

• Its number
• The name of the alarm page
• The date and time of appearance
• The date and time of acknowledgment
• The date and time of disappearance

XBT ref. Note
N200/N400/N410NU400R400/R410	No printer link

■ Initiated by the PLC

The log is printed by means of the print command word in the dialog table (see chapter C, section Print command, Page 77).

The log is printed in sequential order (sorted by status), with the most recent alarm at the top.

The following information is printed for each alarm:

• The alarm number
• The name of the alarm page
• The date and time of appearance
• The date and time of acknowledgment
• The date and time of disappearance

1. Introduction: Creating Magelis applications

A Magelis application consists of the entire dialog between the operator and the automated process. In its entirety, this should take account of:

- The criteria relating to the control system:

• production monitoring
• preventive maintenance
• corrective maintenance
• process control

- The user criteria:

• user interface
• level of intervention

- The criteria for creating the actual dialog application:

• programming
• debugging
• upgrading

NOTE: These constraints mean that it is necessary to structure your application. An application should consist of a set of pages, which can be arranged in a tree structure as shown in the figure below:

graph TD
    A["Language ENGLISH* For: Lat=Cycle"] --> B["1 - Display"]
    A --> C["2 - Control"]
    A --> D["3 - Maintenance"]

General

Using copy/paste

The copy/paste function can be used on any object (text, fields, links, etc.), within the same application, or from one application to another, if the equipment symbols are identical. To paste an object in place of a field, text or link, the latter must be selected.

A navigation link can only be pasted if the page to which it is linked exists.

Circular texts copied from an XBT N or XBT R display unit will be truncated according to the space available in the applications on the other ranges and pasted as static text.

It is possible to copy/paste:

• From a page with no Chinese text to a page with no Chinese text
• From a page with Chinese text to a page with Chinese text
• From a page with no Chinese text to a page with Chinese text

NOTE: When pasting text containing Chinese into a non-Chinese language, the Chinese characters are replaced by the "?" character.

When the Chinese text appears within an enumerated list, the Chinese characters are also replaced by the "?" character. In addition, a popup window tells the designer that the content of the enumerated list has been modified.

In the same way, if text is copied/pasted into an application with a different font, the pasted characters are represented by the corresponding character.

3. Using XBT L100• software

Creating a new application

To create an application in XBT L100•, click on the button on the toolbar or select New in the File menu.

Applications can be created with or without a wizard.

Creation without a wizard

Creating an application without a wizard involves the following stages:

• Step 1: Select the type of terminal
• Step 2: Configure the terminal parameters
• Step 3: Configure the protocol parameters
• Step 4: Configure the equipment
• Step 5: Select the application languages
• Step 6: Configure the dialogue table

Step 1 - Select the type of terminal

An initial window is used to select the display unit and the protocol associated with the application to be created.

The terminal selection window is as follows:

Terminal Type Configuration Commercial References XBT-N401(2) XBT-N410(1) XBT-N410(2) XBT-R400 XBT-R410 XBT-R411 XBT-H001010 Choose protocol Modbus IEC61131 Syntax Parameters... OK Cancel Next > Help

For XBT N display units, it is possible to select a display unit in input mode, or a display unit in control mode. The display-unit keypad varies depending on the selection made.

XBT ref. Note

3. Using XBT L100• software

Modifiable label "Input" version display unit Example: XBT N200(2) "Control" version display unit Example: XBT N200(1)

NOTE: When the version of an XBT N display unit changes, the key legends should change (see quick reference guide).

This distinction is indicated in the list of product references by the notation (1) or (2). For example, the reference XBT N200(1) indicates a "control" version XBT N200 display unit, whereas the reference XBT N200(2) indicates an "input" version XBT N200 display unit.

• By confirming with the "OK" button, a new application can be created without using the creation wizard.
• "Clicking" on the "Next >" button guides the designer through the creation of a new application by linking several windows (see section "Creation with a wizard", Page 24).
• "Clicking" on the "Parameter..." button enables access to configuration of the selected protocol parameters (see section "Step 3 - Configure the protocol parameters", Page 19).
• The check box marked "IEC61131 Syntax" is used for the Modbus protocol to choose the syntax used for the variable addresses.

Step 2 - Configure the terminal parameters

This window appears if Terminal Parameters is selected from the Configuration menu.

Configure Terminal parameters Default language: ENGLISH * Default page System welcome page Application page 1 : PAGE 1 Password ... Printer ... Import Protection ... Date format Examples: DD/MM/YYYY 25/06/1996 MM/DD/YYYY 06/25/1996 YYYY/MM/DD 1996/06/25 Time format Examples: 12 11:59:59 24 23:59:59 OK Cancel Help

This window is used to configure the following terminal parameters:

• The default language (this language will be used when the terminal is powered up)
• The default page (the selection is made in a list corresponding to the list of existing application pages)
• Application-import protection
• Passwords
• The printer (XBT N401 and XBT R411 only)
• The date format used by the display unit
• The time format used by the display unit

Application-import configuration

This function is used to protect the display unit dialog application to avoid unwanted "hacking".

3. Using XBT L100• software

It is possible to choose:

• Whether the application can be imported (by default) or not
• Whether or not a password is required for importing

Application import configuration ✓ Import authorized ■ Import with password OK Cancel Help

During data input, the password is displayed without encryption. It consists of four ASCII characters ([0..9]+[A..Z]).

If importing has not been authorized and an operator tries to import the application, an error message appears at the start of importing and the transfer is not completed.

If importing has been authorized with a password, the password input screen appears. If the password entered is incorrect, an error message appears and the application is not transferred.

In all cases, exporting remains possible.

Configure printer

This function is used to configure printing from a display unit.

XBT printer Configuration Printer Number of columns: 132 ✓ Automatic line feed □ Automatic line skip Line Speed (baude): 9600 □ XON - XOFF Protocol □ Modem signal management Stop bits ● 1 ○ 2 Data bits ● 7 ● 8 Parity ○ None ○ Even ● Odd OK Cancel

XBT ref. Note
N200/N400/N410NU400R400/R410	No printer link

It is used to configure:

- The number of printer columns: between 10 and 132 (132 by default).

This is the number of characters that can be printed on one line (this depends on the type and/or mode of the connected printer). The most common values are 80 and 132.

- Automatic line skip option: (checked by default)

To go to the beginning of the next line on a printer, two characters must be sent: CR for Carriage Return (the print head is repositioned at the beginning of the line without a vertical shift) and LF for Line Feed (the paper is shifted up one line). In order to use less of the passband, certain printers automatically generate the LF character when they receive the CR character. When the box is checked, only the CR character is sent to the printer. However, if this parameter is configured incorrectly, the following scenarios may arise:

• The box is checked and the printer does not support auto-LF: All the printed text will be superimposed on one another.
• The box is unchecked and the printer supports auto-LF: All lines will be separated by a blank line.

- The transfer speed: (9600 by default)

This is the communication speed configured for the printer. It depends on the type of printer connected. If random printing errors occur, this speed must be reduced on the XBT L100• and on the printer.

- Option for the printer to use the XON/XOFF protocol: (not checked by default)

When the terminal sends data to be printed to the printer, the latter usually stores them in a buffer of limited size. In order to regulate the communication flow, some printers use a protocol called XON/XOFF: When the printer buffer reaches 80% saturation, the printer sends an XOFF command to the terminal, which then suspends printing until the printer sends it an XON character.

When the box is checked, this function is activated. If the box is not checked, there is no flow control. This protocol needs a 3-wire cable (earth, send channel, receive channel) to operate.

XBT ref. Note
N200/N400/N410NU400R400/R410	No printer link

- Management of Modem signals (not checked by default)

This is another flow-regulation protocol: This time, the flow is regulated electronically (no longer via the software as in the case of the XON/XOFF protocol). A cable incorporating 5 wires is required (earth, send channel, receive channel, ready to send, clear to send). Although possible, we do not recommend checking both boxes (XON:XOFF and modem signals) at the same time. Similarly, it is not advisable to uncheck both boxes at the same time, in order to ensure that the printer will not become saturated.

- Number of stop bits (1 by default)

Communication parameter configured for the printer. Enter the value supported by the printer.

- Number of data bits (8 by default)

Communication parameter configured for the printer. Enter the value supported by the printer. Caution: If you send characters with 7 data bits, accented characters and/or characters specific to the language configured may print incorrectly.

- Parity (odd by default)

Communication parameter configured for the printer. Enter the value supported by the printer. Parity is used to detect physical communication errors (change of a 1 to 0, and vice versa, on the line). For this reason, each character sent can be associated with a parity bit. The role of this bit is as follows:

- No parity has been selected, this bit is not present.

- The selected parity is even, each character sent has an even number of bits at 1. For example, to send the character 01110011, you would actually send 011100111. A bit at 1 has been added because there were originally 5 bits at 1 to be sent.

- The selected parity is odd, each character sent has an odd number of bits at 1. For example, to send the character 01110011 you would actually send 011100110. A bit at 0 has been added in order to send an odd number of bits at 1.

Three passwords, A, B and C can be configured. Each password consists of four ASCII characters ([0..9]+[A..Z]).

These three passwords are configured by default as "1111".

Step 3 - Configure the protocol parameters

This window appears when Protocol Parameters is selected from the Configuration menu.

This window is used to:

• Indicate the protocol line parameters
• Enter parameters specific to the protocol

Modbus Protocol Parameters Configuration Speed (baud): 10000 Pality None Even Odd 8 bits RTU Timeout (*100 ms): 30 Character Timeout: (number of characters) 4 Parameter significant for XBT-Fxxxxx only Number of Repetitions: 1

The appearance of the dialog box depends on the protocol selected.

Step 4 - Configure the equipment

This window appears after selection of Equipment Symbols from the Configuration menu.

Principle

A control system consists of several devices, which may be linked to one or more display units. A device may be a PLC, a computer, a speed drive, etc. The display unit itself is deemed to be a device, enabling it to have its own variables, such as date, time, etc.

From the viewpoint of XBT L100•, a device is defined by two characteristics: the equipment address and symbol. The address depends solely on the protocol used.

One display unit can communicate with up to fifteen different devices.

Configuration equipment window

Select Equipment Symbols from the Configuration menu to create, modify or delete equipment symbols.

Configure Equipment Symbols Equipments: (Slave) MASTER[1] TWIDO[4] ULTIMA[18] QUANTUM[23] OK Cancel Help Add ... Modify ... Delete Advanced >>

By default, the list contains one device with a default address, whose symbol is "MASTER". This equipment cannot be deleted, but its name and address can be modified.

A symbol is associated with one address only, and vice versa.

The "Add File" button enables the designer to select the variables symbol file. The extensions for these files are ".SCY" (PL7), ".TXT" (Concept) or ".TWD" (Twidosoft).

NOTE: The Modbus slave protocol does not require the equipment symbols to be declared since the terminal is totally passive with this protocol.

Step 5 - Select the application languages

Select Application Languages from the Configuration menu to modify the list of languages used by the application.

This window can be used to add more languages. It contains:

• A font selection list (Latin+Cyrillic, Latin+Katakana, Cyrillic, Greek or Chinese)
• A zone where the name of the language can be entered
• A list containing the 6 languages available for the system pages (English, French, Spanish, German, Italian and Chinese).

If the Chinese font has not been selected, Chinese does not appear in the list of system-page languages.

NOTE: If the font selected initially was Chinese and the user chooses to stop using this language, Chinese characters already entered in the application will be replaced with “?”.

When there are several languages in the application, by default, the additional language pages are identical to the reference language pages, unless the reference language is Chinese. In this case, the Chinese characters are replaced with “?” (static texts, circular texts and text in enumerated lists) for languages where the Chinese font has not been used.

Any modification of variable fields or links in a page in the reference language (first in the list) is systematically carried through to the other language pages. However, any modification of static text has no effect on the static text on other application language pages. The same applies to text in enumerated lists.

Only static text, circular text and text in enumerated lists can be entered in other language pages. Modification of text in any other language than the reference language has no effect on other language pages. It is not possible to delete, modify, move or add a variable field or a link from a page edited in any other language than the reference language.

A dropdown list in the application primary window toolbar indicates the name of the current application language. If only one application language has been configured, this list is inactive. When the selected language is the reference language, an asterisk ("*") appears after the language name.

Inserting Chinese characters

Chinese writing does not consist of letters, but of ideograms, which represent an idea or a concept. A word would consist of one or more of these ideograms and a sentence would consist of one or more of these words.

A special program, called IME (Input Method Editor), is required, which can be used to simulate a keyboard using the simplified Chinese alphabet, which consists of approximately 7000 ideograms.

To enter a word, the designer types it phonetically on the keyboard, and a data-processing system then finds the best ideogram for this word. If the data-processing system cannot determine the right ideogram for this word (for example in the case of homonyms), it suggests all the words, which might correspond to this pronunciation, and the designer can then select the most suitable ideogram from the list of suggestions.

• Read/write: Display and possibility of modification of the field value.
• Immediate read/write: Display and possibility of incremental input and adjustment of the variable value. Adjustment enables the field value to be gradually increased or decreased without the need to confirm using ENTER.

Protection:

Access to a field can be password-protected. The value represented by the field cannot be modified by the user unless the corresponding password has been entered.

NOTE: If there is no password configured for the field (neither A, B, nor C), it will only be possible to enter it through the dialog table ("field number to be entered" field).

Limits:

Min/Max limits associated with the variable objects are used to:

• Signal to the operator that the variable value entered by the connected equipment is not within the defined interval [Min, Max].
• Ensure that the value entered by the operator is within a given interval.

These limits can be accessed via the "Options" tab.

Constant limits:

The values of constant limits are entered when the application is designed in XBT L100•. These values cannot be modified in running mode.

Variable limits:

These are associated with variables for the connected equipment, and can therefore be modified by this equipment in running mode.

The variables associated with the limits are the same type as the variable associated with the variable object (words, floating points, etc.).

XBT ref. Note

NOTE: These variables are only read when the request is made to display the page containing the variable object concerned.

Conversion

The value of the connected equipment variable can be modified using the following formula:

$$ Y = (A ^ {*} X) + B \text { where } $$

• A and B: Constants (floating points) entered during configuration with XBT L100•.
• X: Variable read in the control system.
• Y: Whatever is displayed by the variable object.

This conversion is configured via the "Options" tab.

Display:

Used to specify how the digits representing the value will be placed in the space reserved for the alphanumeric field.

- For a decimal type field, the following alignment options are offered:

• Left
• Right (default)
• Right with display of non-significant zeros

Left alignment:

123

Right alignment:

123

Non-significant zeros (completed with leading zeros):

000123

- For other formats, alignment is automatic:

• Binary: Aligned right with the addition of leading zeros
• Hexadecimal: Aligned right with the addition of leading zeros
• Enumerated list: Aligned left with the addition of "space" characters to the right
• ASCII: Aligned left with the addition of "space" characters to the right

3. Using XBT L100• software

Enumerated lists

An enumerated list is a list of pairs of values/text. The advantage of this type of list is that text can be displayed in a variable field according to the value of a PLC variable.

Text type values in enumerated lists can only be in ASCII. However, text associated with these ASCII values is written in the language of the active page, and can therefore be written in Chinese.

	Maximum value
Number of texts per list 64
Characters per text item 20

In cases where the selected PLC object equals "BIT", there are only two possible values: 0 and 1.

Selecting "Enumerated list" as the display type makes the "List..." button active.

The "General" tab then appears as shown below:

Properties of Alpharmonic Field General Condition Options Variable MASTER: 40001 Modify... Format Type: Dimension 1 Length 3 Number of colors: X List Display ✓ Display ✓ Display ✓ Display Size 1x1 OK Cancel Help

The "Number of values" field is also active and gives the number of values entered in the list.

The "List..." button is used to open a dialog box, which can be used to create, modify and delete value/text pairs in the enumerated list associated with the variable field.

The condition can include a maximum of 3 comparisons linked by logical operators:

OR, AND and XOR.

The possible comparisons are: =, <>, >, >=, <, <=

XBT ref. Note

3. Using XBT L100• software

A comparison has a variable on the left and a constant on the right. Check boxes in front of each comparison are used to create a condition with 1, 2 or 3 comparisons.

The "Variable" button is used to modify the variable address.

The condition does not take non-activated conditions into account (check box empty).

A reminder of the combination then appears (in the "Field displayed if" part) in plain text.

The variable field is displayed if the condition is TRUE, otherwise it is not displayed.

NOTE: The conditions are only assessed when the page containing the variable field is displayed.

Configuring the function keys

This operation is performed by selecting Function keys from the Configuration menu.

Function keys are configured in blocks of 4.

Blocks of keys, which cannot be configured for the terminal, are inactive.

All product ranges have a different sheet reference and hence a different format.

There is one model for XBT N display units (N4_label.dot) and one model for XBT R display units (R4_label.dot).

An existing "*.doc" file can be opened or a new file can be created.

NOTE: As each printer is configured with different margins, it is advisable to test print on a sheet of paper before using a sheet of labels.

The models can also be opened directly in Microsoft WORD without using XBT L100•.

Functional links

Creating links

Links are objects displayed on screen, which are used to allocate functions to the and keys on the display unit keypad.

There are 2 types of link:

• Navigation links: for calling an application or system page

• Functional links of the following type:

• Impulse command

• Toggle command
• Write value

1 to 2 links can be programmed per line (1 link maximum in each direction).

A link can be inserted if:

• The selected page is an application page
• The line where the cursor appears does not already have a link in both directions
• The space available for locating the cursor allows a link to be embedded (a functional link consists of two characters).
• The application language associated with the page currently being printed is the reference language

Introduction: Concepts

Human/machine dialogue between the Magelis display unit and the PLC consists of an exchange of data between the two devices.

With any communication problem, define the following information:

• The protocol
• Etc.

- The data to be exchanged

The dialog table is used to perform the main display-unit functions:

• Feed back alarms from the control system (except XBT N200)
• Send commands to the control system using the image of the function keys
• Signal to the operator that a particular action has been authorized, by means of LEDs integrated in the keypad (XBT N401/R411)

The dialog table also enables the control system to control the product almost as well as an operator:

• Display a page
• Change a variable field to input mode.

Moreover, the dialog table performs some functions that could be deemed secondary (secondary because their purpose is not to give instructions to the display unit or the pilot equipment), such as:

• Set terminal clock
• Lock certain keys on the keypad
• Etc.

Finally, the dialog table contains service information, such as:

• Authorization to interpret a table
• Communication monitoring

The dialog table located in the PLC consists of "n" consecutive words (16-bit words). The number of words in the table depends on the choice of status data and commands to be processed during dialog.

The XBT L100• program is used to make this selection.

XBT ref. Note
N200 No alarm management
N200/N400/N410NU400R400/R410	No indicator lights

4. Dialog table

The display unit reads and writes the table in the PLC.

On power-up or restarting communication, the display unit reads the command table and writes the status table.

In the event of a problem, the display unit informs the user with a message.

NOTE: The "Authorization" word is used as a safety measure for the PLC. In fact, when this word has the incorrect value in the PLC, the display unit does not write any dialog table words to the PLC. Nor will it interpret the command words in the dialog table.

Exchanged data

The dialog table is accessed cyclically in two phases: first a read phase, then a write phase. A few notorious exceptions should be pointed out, for example the images of the function keys or the images of the keypad keys, which are updated immediately.

It is also important to note functions are processed in the order in which they are stored in the dialog table, for either reading or writing: The function read first is the first to be processed, and the function written first is the first to have been processed (except for key images).

The structure of a table is always as follows:

Block 1 Part containing the XBT -> PLC words

Block 2 Part containing the XBT <-> PLC words

Block 3 Part containing the XBT <- PLC words

->, <->, <- : Direction of communication

From the viewpoint of the display unit, on each cycle there is:

1) A read phase: Blocks 2 and 3 are retrieved
2) A write phase: Blocks 1 and 2 are updated if necessary

XBT ref. Note
/	/

The notion of a block is extremely useful in certain protocols, which support what is known as optimization: Instead of reading a series of words in the equipment word by word, they can be read in blocks, which is much faster.

Command data sent by the PLC to the display unit

This involves the following commands:

• Advanced functions
• Terminal language
• Display an application page
• Display alarm pages
• Lock keys
• Variable field input request
• Control of indicator lights associated with the function keys
• Set real-time clock command
• Write table authorization
• Print instructions

■ Status data sent by the display unit to the PLC

This involves the following states:

• The display-unit status:
• display-unit configuration mode
• confirmation of entries with the
• cancellation of an input with the
• cancellation of an input after a time-out
• current language
• new time given by the operator

- The number of the page displayed

- The number of the last field entered

- The image of the keypad keys

- The real-time clock status (date and time)

- Communication monitoring

- The number of the last alarm to be acknowledged

- Application checksum

- Terminal advanced status

- Log fill level

4. Dialog table

To use a dialog table or an alarm table, the designer specifies the symbol for the equipment in which it will be located, as well as the basic address from which it starts.

NOTE: Before starting to program the PLC, check that all the words needed for operation of the application are included in the dialog table. In order for words to be added to the dialog table, the PLC program controlling the application must be modified.

Introduction

The purpose of simulation is to test operation of the application (including display of Chinese characters if the application contains any) in the XBT L100•, and thus enable the designer to validate his application without needing to transfer it to the display unit or connect up the PLC. Only one simulation can be launched at a time.

Click on Application Simulation in the Simulation menu to open two windows:

- One window representing the display unit front panel - One PLC simulation window containing three tabs:

• Page Variables
• Alarms
• Dialog Table

NOTE: Application transfer and printing are not simulated.

■ Display-unit simulation window

This window represents the display front panel. It therefore contains a graphic representation of each of the keypad keys and a zone representing the screen where the pages are displayed as they appear on the terminal in running mode. Access to every key of the display unit keypad is possible using the mouse or a key on the PC keypad.

XBT ref. Note

5. Simulation

■ Keypad keys during simulation

Control panel interface with labeled buttons and keyboard keys, showing function keys like F1 to F12 and directional arrows

This window does not have a menu, its size cannot be modified, nor can it be closed (it is closed at the same time as the PLC simulation window). Use [Alt] + [6] (numeric keypad) on the front panel, and click on L1000. The simulation changes to priority display.

C

PLC simulation window

This window contains four tabs.

■ "Page Variables" tab

This tab contains a grid consisting of 3 columns:

• The first column called "Equipment" contains the symbol for the equipment associated with the variable.
• A second column called "Reference" contains the variable address, and the syntax used therefore depends on the protocol selected.
• A third column called "Value" contains the current variable value (non-signed decimal and ascending order obligatory).

There is one line for each variable used in the page being displayed. If the same variable is used several times in the page, it only appears once in the grid.

It is possible to change the value of a variable by entering a new value in the box corresponding to the average of the PC keypad. Write-only fields do not appear until the display unit has entered an input.

"Alarms" tab

The grid representing the table of word bits used is similar to that used to create alarms. In addition, the only active boxes are those corresponding to the bits on which alarms have been defined. These boxes display the value of the corresponding bit (- or x), and double-clicking on one of these boxes simulates the change of state of the alarm bit.

6. Transferring an application

Connecting the display unit

For transfers, the link between the display unit and the PC uses either an RS232C serial cable or a USB cable.

For more information about connections, see chapter A, section Connection, Page 11.

WARNING

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

• Disconnect the power supply before connecting the serial link.
• Only connect one type of serial link at a time.
• Tighten both connector fixing screws.

Failure to follow this instruction can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Starting up the display unit

Refer to the quick reference guide supplied with the product.

- Importing an application

An application is imported by selecting Import from the Transfer menu. Data is imported into a new application, not into the current application. Importing begins with checking the import protection (see section Step 2 - Configure the terminal parameters, Page 15).

Next, the XBT L100•/Connected display unit communication protocols are checked.

The import operation takes place after the checking phase.

7. Description of dialog-table words

The number of words in the table depends on the choice of status data and commands you wish to process during dialog (see section 4. Dialog table, Page 53).

Similarly, the number of words available depends on the type of display unit (function keys present or not for example).

7. Description of dialog-table words

■ Communication monitoring

This word is incremented every dialog-table write cycle. When it reaches 65535 it does not pass through 0, but immediately takes the value 1.

XBT -> PLC Communication monitoring

The word can be used as a watchdog for the display unit: If it is not incremented regularly, it can be assumed that the display unit is no longer operational. Finally, this word can take the value 0 when the display unit is powered up and whenever communication is restarted, but never takes the value 0 thereafter: It can therefore be used by the synchronization pilot equipment to detect starting up of a display unit or restarting communication.

WARNING

LOSS OF CONTROL

• Loss of communication between the display unit and the PLC can result in partial or complete loss of control of the machine.
• Check the display unit
• Check the "Communication monitoring" word in the dialog table via the PLC program.

Failure to follow this instruction can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Set PLC clock

This set of words, each divided into 2 bytes, tells the control system the display-unit time at each cycle so that, if necessary, its internal real-time clock can be updated.

XBT -> PLC Seconds Day of the week
XBT -> PLC Hours Minutes
XBT -> PLC Month Day

How the various bytes are entered can be selected in the XBT L100-configuration software: Either BCD format (in which case if it is fifteen hours, the content of the Hour field will be 0x15) or Standard format (in which case if it is fifteen hours, the content of the Hour field will be 0x0F) can be selected. The choice of BCD/Standard applies to all four words, and cannot be made independently for each byte.

■ Number of page displayed

This word contains the number of the page displayed on the terminal. The code of the page displayed follows the same rules as those which apply to the "Number of page to be processed" word, and in addition the following rule exists: the "Number of page displayed" word equals 0xFFFF in the following cases:

• When the display unit displays an alarm ^(1)
• When the display unit is in the processing of changing page

XBT -> PLC Number of page displayed

Recommended method of displaying a page (see chapter C, section Number of page to be processed, Page 74)

■ Number of last completed field

This word contains the number of the last completed field. A field is considered to have been completed when it has been confirmed with ENTER, or as soon as the associated PLC value has been modified by the user (as is the case when the field is in immediate-write mode). The field number is available in XBT L100•, via the Display/Field Numbers menu.

■ Number of last acknowledged alarm ^(1)

When the user acknowledges an alarm (by pressing the key on the display unit), the display unit sends the acknowledgment number to the equipment, which generated the alarm. This number is valid during one cycle of the dialog table, then it returns to -1. This alarm number is stored in a 16-bit word. This number is the significance of the bit associated with the alarm in its alarm table (see table below).

This word uses 2 bytes. The most-significant byte is reserved and is written to the value 0 by the terminal on each cycle of the dialog table. The least-significant byte contains a number between 0 and 100, which indicates how much of the log is in use as a percentage.

XBT -> PLC Reserved (0) Log fill level

NOTE: The log fill level is zero if the log is empty. The fill level is 100 if and only if the log is completely full.

Application checksum

This word contains a checksum denoting the version of a dialog application. It is only found in the dialog table. The PLC can thus monitor that the dialog application is the correct one.

Bit 15 0

The advantage of this word is as follows: It enables the display-unit password to be used as the password for the PLC (enabling, for example, the whole process to be switched to a certain state, for example maintenance, by means of the display unit, by entering the ad hoc password: The display unit can then access pages shared by a maintenance password, and the PLC can thus know that the display unit is in maintenance mode, enabling it in turn to switch to a mode where it is ready to accept modifications).

It should be noted that for reasons of compatibility with existing PLC applications, there is also a bit in the "Report" word (the CONFIDENTIAL_MODE bit), which is at 1 as soon as at least one password has been confirmed.

Bit 154320

• Bit 2: END_OF_ENTRY_ON_ENTER: Set to 1 once the operator has confirmed completion of the field by pressing ENTER.
• Bit 3: END_OF_ENTRY_ON_ESC: Set to 1 once the operator has cancelled completion of the field by pressing ESC.
• Bit 4: END_OF_ENTRY_ON_TIMEOUT: Set to 1 if the operator neither confirms nor cancels completion of the field within one minute.

Print command

This 16-bit word is split into two bytes: The most-significant byte defines which print function to use and the least-significant byte is used to switch from the parameters to the selected print function.

XBT<->PLC Print function code Function data

The list of function codes and parameters supported is as follows:

MSB LSB Function
0x02 Any	Print the alarm	log

Once the terminal has taken account of the request (this does not mean that printing has finished), it writes 0xFFFF to this word.

You will notice that there are several bits dedicated to printing in the status word: These bits are PRINTING_IN_PROGRESS, PRINTING_FAULT AND PRINTING_STOPPED.

7. Description of dialog-table words

Write table authorization

This word consists of two parts: The 8 most-significant bits should contain the value 0xA5, whereas the 8 least-significant bits should contain the number of words in the dialog table, in hexadecimal notation (hence, if the dialog table contains 12 words, the value of the 8 least-significant bits will be 0x0C, for example 16#A50C).

XBT <- PLC 0xA5 No. of words in the dialog table
Bit 15	8 7	0

This word is a safety measure for the pilot device and for the display unit: Unless this word has the expected value, the display unit will refrain from writing anything to the pilot device memory, and conversely, will refrain from interpreting the command words it might find in the dialog table. The message "INCORRECT AUTHORIZATION TABLE" is displayed intermittently until the word is correct.

Note that there is no possible validity check for an alarm table not located in the pilot device.

Clear log/Advanced functions

This 16-bit word is split into two bytes: The most-significant byte is used to define the function required of the display unit by the pilot device, and the least-significant byte is used to switch the parameters to the function called by the most-significant byte.

XBT<-PLC	Function code	Function data
Bit 15	87	0

XBT ref. Note
N200 No alarm management
N200/N400/N410NU400R400/R410	No choice of backlight color

7. Description of dialog-table words

The list of function codes and parameters supported are as follows:

Function Parameter
0 Clear the alarm log 0xFF
1 Forces the backlight color		0 to 4(XBT N401/R411)
2	Forces the display unit password level	0 to 7

In cases where the pilot device might send the display unit a command:

• That is unspecified
• With incorrect parameters

the display unit simply ignores the command.

For function 0, the pilot device can check that the request has been recognized by examining the value of the "Log fill level" word.

For function 2, the pilot device has a check to ensure acknowledgment of its request via the “Terminal advanced status” word in the write cycle of the DT following its request.

Function 0:

This function has only one parameter value: 0xFF. When the PLC writes 0x00FF to the “Clear log” word, the terminal clears the associated alarm log. As long as the PLC retains the value 0x00FF, the log is not cleared again. To repeat a clear instruction, a neutral value must be written to the word (for example 0x0000) and then 0x00FF written again.

Function 1:

The backlight colors are defined as follows:

Color Function parameters (LSB)
Unchanged 0
Red 1
Green 2
Orange 3
No backlight 4

XBT ref. Note
N200 No alarm management
N200/N400/N410NU400R400/R410	No choice of backlight color

7. Description of dialog-table words

If the dialog table has not imposed a backlight color (because this function has never been called since the application started) or if the dialog table has asked for the backlight color not to be forced (by writing the value 0x0100 to the "Advanced functions" word) then the backlight color is that imposed by the page displayed.

Function 2:

The password is defined as follows:

0	0	0	0	0	C	B	A
7				0

Password Function parameters (LSB)
Unchanged/Reinitialization 0
A selected 1
B selected 2
B+A selected 3
C selected 4
C+A selected 5
C+B selected 6
C+B+A selected 7

If the dialog table has not imposed a password (because this function has never been called since the application started) or if the dialog table is not imposing a password (by writing the value 0x0200 to the "Advanced functions" word) then the password level is that defined by the display unit user.

Conversely, if the dialog table has asked at least once for the password to be either A+B (via the value 0x0203) then whatever the password requested by the user, the password level will be A+B, that imposed by the dialog table (same logic as for other passwords).

7. Description of dialog-table words

When a key is locked, it can no longer have any effect at application program level: Thus, for example, if the user has locked the key, the operator will not be able to confirm an input

using

Terminal language

This word forces the display unit to use language number N, where N is a language number defined in XBT L100•.

XBT <- PLC Display-unit language

This word can take the following values:

Value Effect
0 The dialog table does not force any language
1 to N Language number, as defined in the application
Other values	No effect: The display unit remains in the state it was in before this command was applied

As long as this word equals 0x0000, any request to change the language on the part of the user will be accepted. However, as soon as a correct language number is imposed via the dialog table, the user can no longer modify the display unit language.

Note that for reasons of compatibility with existing PLC applications, there are also two bits in the report word:

• Bit 11: LOW_CURRENT_LANGUAGE_NUMBER (LCLN)
• Bit 12: HIGH_CURRENT_LANGUAGE_NUMBER (HCLN)

serving a dual purpose with this byte.

Alarm table (1)

There can be up to 256 alarms on the display unit, and these 256 alarms can be divided between several alarm tables located in the various devices (up to 15). The distribution granularity of these 256 alarms within the various alarm tables is 16 bits (the size of a word).

7. Description of dialog-table words

Depending on the type of display unit, more or fewer alarms may be permitted. Nevertheless, the structure of a word used to signal alarms is always as follows: One 16-bit word, where each bit represents an alarm.

XBT <- PLC Alarm

When several alarm words are positioned in a device, the alarms are numbered bit by bit, starting with the least-significant bit in the lowest order address (bearing the number 1) and ascending towards the most-significant bit and the highest-order address:

No.of bit	76543210
Alarm Page No.	#8	#7	#6	#5	#4	#3	#2	#1
	#24 #	23 #22	#21 #20	#19 #	18 #17
	... ...	... ... ...	... ... ...
	#248	#247 #2	46 #245	#244	#243 #2	42 #241

When several alarm words are defined in a given device, these words are always located in consecutive addresses: There cannot be a gap between alarm numbers.

Set terminal clock

This set of 16-bit words, each divided into 2 bytes, enables the control system to update the display unit real-time clock.

XBT <- PLC	Seconds	Day of the week
XBT <- PLC	Hours	Minutes
XBT <- PLC	Month	Day
XBT <- PLC	Century	Year

XBT ref.	Note
/	/

7. Description of dialog-table words

How the various bytes are entered can be selected in the XBT L100-configuration software: Either BCD format (in which case if it is fifteen hours, the content of the Hour field will be 0x15) or Standard format (in which case if it is fifteen hours, the content of the Hour field will be 0x0F) can be selected.

The choice of BCD/Standard applies to all these four words, and cannot be made independently for each byte. The “Day of the week” field is not used by the display unit: The latter automatically calculates the right day associated with a given date. Irrespective of the content of the “Day of the week” field, the display unit ignores it.
