ControlProgram Wiresheet View

The Wiresheet View is that screen or view of the Honeywell SpyderTool interface that you use to engineer the tool. Function blocks, Physical points, and NVs or Objects are the building blocks of the logic you can create and download to the Honeywell Spyder controller.

You can create and build your own logic using function blocks or create ControlProgram and libraries or macros, using the Wiresheet view. On this view, you can drag the function blocks, Physical points, and NVs or Objects that you use to build and define logic. This logic then forms a part of the macros and Spyder libraries that you want to save and reuse.

Note: Names of Physical points must be unique. No two Physical points can have the same name.

To view the Wiresheet View of the Lon controller:

  1. On the Nav palette, browse to Station > Config > Drivers > LonNetwork > LonSpyder.
  2. Expand LonSpyder and select ControlProgram.
  3. Right-click ControlProgram and select Views > Wiresheet.

To view the Wiresheet View of the Bacnet controller:

  1. On the Nav palette, browse to Station > Config > Drivers > BacnetNetwork > BacnetSpyder.
  2. Expand BacnetSpyder and select ControlProgram.
  3. Right-click ControlProgram and select Views > Wiresheet.

The wiresheet is displayed on the right of the screen in the Engineering mode. The Wiresheet View consists of a wiresheet like appearance on the right pane. You can drag the function blocks, Physical points, and NVs or Objects on to this wiresheet and make the connections to and from Physical points and function blocks to build your logic on the wiresheet. It also consists of fixed Physical points. It also consists of a snapshot view of the entire wiresheet page on the top right corner. This helps you to have an overview of the entire sheet in cases where you have many function blocks/Physical points and so on.

Note: All the Fixed Physical points are visible on the ControlProgram Wiresheet view of the Controller.

Designing The Application Logic

Note: You can use the Windows mechanism of copy or cut or delete Function blocks, NVs or Objects and IOs on the wiresheet.

To design your application:

  1. Decide the Physical points
  2. Develop Sequence
  3. Decide the interface requirements for the open Lon connection or open Bacnet connection or with other Lon/Bacnet devices
  4. Develop software logic using modules or import the modules that you want to use
  5. Interconnect Physical points to other modules and to the outside connections
  6. Test the logic through simulation
  7. Correct any changes to the design or modifications to the Macros
  8. Save Macros that you would want to reuse in a library
  9. Save your device in a library if you want to be able to reuse it here or on other projects.
