Area model PhaseManager configuration

Use
FactoryTalk Batch
 with
PhaseManager
 to configure the area model in
FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
, or develop the phase logic in
Logix Designer
. If designing an entire
FactoryTalk Batch
 system, use
FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
 to create an area model that describes the capabilities of the equipment, down to the phase level, and optionally use the synchronization feature to create corresponding equipment phases in the
Logix Designer
 project file.
This section describes how to configure data servers and phases in
FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
 so these
PhaseManager
 features can be used:
  • CIP for
    FactoryTalk Batch
     Server communications to the
    Logix5000
     controller
  • Synchronization of phases in the
    FactoryTalk Batch
     area model with the
    Logix Designer
     project file
  • Ability to open phase logic in
    Logix Designer
     from the phase in
    FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
    TIP:
    To fully use the
    PhaseManager
     features, install
    FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
     and
    Logix Designer
     on the same computer.
To configure the
FactoryTalk Batch
 system with
PhaseManager
:
  • Add
    Logix5000
     CIP data servers
  • Assign a
    Logix5000
     CIP data server to
    PhaseManager
     phases
After these configuration tasks are completed, if the
Equipment Phase
s in
Logix Designer
 have not already been created, synchronize the
FactoryTalk Batch
 area model with the
Logix Designer
 project file.
