Device Configurator
The hardware and physical functions of the controller are defined
in the Device Configurator; e.g. device type, memory modules,
communication channels, associated modules and I/Os. The I/O
configuration, parameterization and designation, as well as the
configuration of the Ethernet protocols, e.g. DNS, DHCP etc.,
takes place here. The Device Configurator also controls the use of
input/output modules in the internal power supply of PCDs and
prints the labels which are adhered to the I/O modules.
Selecting Device Configurator in the Saia PG5® Project Manager
All parameters and modules can be viewed at a glance and printed out as system documentation in the Device Configurator.
Symbol Editor
The Symbol Editor is the heart of the Saia PG5® Core. It defines
and documents all symbols used by the program.
The various editors are connected by the Symbol Editor. New
symbols used in the program code are taken over directly by
the Symbol Editor.
The import/export function allows the reuse of pre-defined
I/O lists in electrical diagrams and visualization tools.
Symbols can be grouped together. All the symbols required
for a function form one group. This makes it easier to use
functions and recognize symbols in the program code, and
also gives a clearer overview in the Symbol Editor.
