FactoryTalk Batch phases in Logix Designer

After the
Logix5000
data servers are added and assigned to phases, create the same phases in the
Logix Designer
programming software by synchronizing the area model with the
Logix Designer
project file.
This section describes how to synchronize the
FactoryTalk Batch
area model with the
Logix Designer
project file when the phases in
FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
are created and corresponding equipment phases in
Logix Designer
are needed. Phases based on these types of phases must be initially created in
FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
and added to
Logix Designer
through the synchronization process:
  • Material-based recipe phases
  • Phases that contain control strategies
  • Phases that contain parameter deviations
The features to configure these types of complex phases are unique to the
FactoryTalk Batch
product.
Logix Designer
does not have the configuration features to enable material phases, control strategies, or parameter deviations. For that reason, configure these phase classes and phases in
FactoryTalk Batch
first, and then follow the instructions in this chapter to synchronize the area model with the
Logix Designer
project file. When corresponding equipment phases in
Logix Designer
are synchronizing, the appropriate configuration of parameters, reports, and tags on these complex phases are automatically created on the equipment phases in
Logix Designer
.
TIP:
Phases are created in
Logix Designer
as equipment phases.
After equipment phases are created in the
Logix Designer
project, begin developing phase logic for them in
Logix Designer
.
