EcoStruxure Automation Expert - Using the HMI Log File to Debug or Track Changes

Issue For traceability reasons, it is sometimes necessary to time-stamp modifications made by the operator on the HMI and the controller's actions. The archiving function is one possibility. Another lighter option is to use the HMI log file. This function can be accessed directly from the HMI, using a few C# functions to record events. It can also be used to debug C# code to display messages or values, without having to use the debugging tool (Visual Studio) or the message boxes that require acknowledgement. Resolution The aim of this document is to provide the information required to use the HMI log file. Disclaimer The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of Schneider Electric.

EcoStruxure Automation Expert - Recommended Naming Conventions in EAE

Issue When building a Solution in EAE, each engineer has their own idea of how to name items such as pins on a function block, the names of Composite or Basic Function Blocks which they create, the names of folders, Symbols, Faceplates and the list goes on. Without a standard naming convention to conform to, a Solution can become an accumulation of unorderly syntaxes. Resolution This article serves to uncover the different naming conventions widely used in real world engineering. A EAE Naming Convention Reference Card is also provided. Its intention is to be used as a guide during your EAE’s engineering lifecycle. It is produced based on close observation of Schneider’s Libraries that comes in EAE.   Disclaimer The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of Schneider Electric.

EcoStruxure Automation Expert - Populating Data Grid Control with C#

Objective The Data Grid in EAE’s HMI is useful for many purposes. In this article, we will learn how to populate it with recipes so that the user may choose one to eventually send to a controller. Behind all of these are C# Codes. We will learn the codes and techniques necessary to perform the operations related. The eventual bigger picture is towards building a bigger application such as one that retrieves information from a data source. But before we can do that, we need to know the basics of Data Grid first.   Disclaimer The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of Schneider Electric.

EcoStruxure Automation Expert - Transparent Overlay as Hidden Button

Objective The Alpha Channel in the Properties of some Objects can be used to achieve transparency. We can leverage on this characteristic to create a transparent Button that overlays a Symbol. The Button is then configured to launch a Faceplate. The result is a Graphical Symbol that when clicked, opens a Faceplate which you can then customized for various other operational purposes, such as controlling an asset.
