3. PROJECT CREATION

3. PROJECT CREATION 3.1. Project A project is a unit in which data of the FCS and HIS created by the system generation function are managed. Various builder files defined by the system generation function are managed in the unit of project. There are three attributes of project: the default project, the current project and the userdefined project. The attribute of project may be changed via the Project’s Attribution Utility. Default Project After installation of the system, the project created the first time when the System View starts is referred to as the default project. The characteristics of the default project are as follows: •This project is downloadable to the FCS. •The virtual test with the FCS simulator can be performed for this project. •This project is downloadable to the HIS. •This project is downloadable off-line to the FCS of the target system. Current Project When any one of the FCS’s created in a default project is successfully downloaded, the attribute of the project changes from the default project to a current project. Online engineering becomes enabled. The current project can perform the target test using the Test Function. The characteristics of the current project are as follows: •Multiple current projects cannot be created. •The target test can be performed for this project. •This project is downloadable to the HIS. •This project is downloadable to the FCS of the target system. Each builder file defined by the various builders are written onto the hard disk when downloading to the FCS or HIS is completed normally. With the current project, the data on the hard disk always matches the data on the FCS or HIS. User-defined Project A project copied either from the default project or from the current project is referred to as a user-defined project. This project cannot be downloaded to the FCS. This project is used when engineering using virtual tests or making a backup copy of the current project. The characteristics of the user-defined project are as follows: •Multiple user-defined projects can be created in System View. •The virtual test with the FCS simulator can be performed for this project. •This project is not downloadable to the FCS or HIS of the target system.

3. PROJECT CREATION

3.2. Creating a Default Project A project is created when System View is executed for the first time after the builders are installed. The project created has the attribute of “the default project” at this stage. Once this project is downloaded to the FCS of the target system, the project’s attribute is changed from “the default project” to the current project. 1. Select [All Programs] - [YOKOGAWA CENTUM] - [System View] from the Windows [Start] menu to display System View window. 2. Start Default Project Creation When the System View could not identify an existing current or default project, it will prompt the user to create a default project with the dialog box as shown below. Click [YES] to create the default project.

3. Outline of Project When creating a project, the outline dialog box appears, the project outline information may be input.

Software Information The software information area displays the user name and the company name registered when the software was installed. The registration may be modified in this dialog box. But the model cannot be changed.

Project Information The project information area allows the project creator to enter arbitrary characters. Enter information on the process and the person in charge of DCS to manage the project. •Process: Production type, plant name/ equipment name •Person in charge of DCS: Company name/ organization name, department responsible, person in charge, date of creation, scope of responsibility

4. Project Property After creating a new project, a menu box for the outline of the project, the project name and project location will be displayed in Create New Project dialog box. Project name is an alphanumeric character string less than 8 characters. The first character of the project name must be an alphabet. The project is managed according to this project name. The comment within 32 alphanumeric characters or 16 double-byte characters may be entered as the project description. Moreover, an alias can be created for a project. An alias of project can be defined with 8 alphanumeric characters. The project position is the project folder’s location in the hard disk. The default location in which to store the project is shown below. If more than one hard disk exist, the storage drive may be specified accordingly such as D:. C:\CENTUMVP\ eng\BKProject\

Plant Hierarchy This is used when a project has a CENTUM CS system at the upper level and a CENTUM VP system at the lower level. •Start Number The start number for Plant Hierarchy can be defined between 1 and 32767. Since the numbers 1 to 4096 are reserved for CENTUM CS, a number greater than or equal to 4097 should be used for CENTUM VP. •Maximum Number of Use Maximum number of plant hierarchies can be set between 1 and 32767. Number of in Use (Number of Custom Facilities) This indicates the number of plant hierarchies that are running in the project. Number of Custom Facilities means the number of plant hierarchies built in Plant Hierarchy Builder. FF Mode/CENTUM Mode The parameters for proportional gain, integral reset and derivative rate are indicated as GAIN, RESET and RATE for FF-PID function block while for CENTUM PID blocks, they are represented by P, I and D respectively. To display the FF-PID block in the same style as the CENTUM function block, the option [Display FF-PID in same style as PID, (Use P.I.D instead of GAIN, RESET, RATE)] needs to be checked. This option is valid for the whole project. By default, this option is not checked. The change of this option will become valid after the off-line downloading to the FCS is performed. Do Not Allow Online Change of Alarm Detection (AF) Setting The online changing of the alarm detection (AF) setting can be prohibited by checking the option of [Do Not Allow Online Change of Alarm Detection (AF) Setting]. By default this option is not checked, i.e., the online changing of the alarm detection (AF) is allowed. When this option is checked (i.e., the online changing of AF is prohibited), online changing the alarm detection (AF) will trigger a warning message and the change of the alarm detection (AF) setting will not be downloaded

Remove Registration of a Project Using the Project’s Attribution Utility, projects that have been registered in System View can be removed. For instance, when the number of projects registered in System View has reached the limit, projects that will not be used in upcoming operations can be removed temporality from System View, using the Project’s Attribution Utility. Note removing a project means to delete the registered information of the project from the System View, the project itself will not be deleted. The project can be registered again by clicking Registration button of Project’s Attribution Utility, or choose [Project] - [Open Project...] task bar on System View.

Notes on the Project Attribute Change Utility Be careful about the following when using the Project Attribute Change Utility: •Before using the Project Attribute Change Utility, check that System View is not running. If it is running, the Project Attribute Change Utility cannot run. •Only one project can exist as the default project or current project in System View. Therefore, if a project having the same attribute already exists, first change the attribute of that project to user-defined project before setting the attribute of the new project to default project or current project. Running the Project Attribute Change Utility 1.Before running the Project Attribute Change Utility, check that System View is not running. When performing engineering on multiple PCs, check that the System Views is not running on these PCs, either.

When staring Project Attribution Utility while the System View is running, a warning message appears. In this case, close the System View first then start Project Attribution Utility
