2	Safety instructions

Please observe the following safety instructions when you want to commission a controller or system using the »Engineer«.

Read the documentation supplied with the controller or the individual components of the system carefully before you start to commission the devices with the »Engineer«!

The device documentation contains safety instructions which must be observed!

Danger!

If required, systems with integrated controllers have to be equipped with additional monitoring and protective equipment in accordance with the safety regulations valid in each case (e.g. law on technical equipment, regulations for the prevention of accidents), so that an impermissible operating status does not endanger persons or equipment.

During commissioning persons must keep a safe distance from the motor or the machine parts driven by the motor. Otherwise there would be a risk of injury by the moving machine parts.

Stop!

If you change parameters in the »Engineer« while the controller is connected online, the changes will be directly accepted by the controller!

An incorrect parameterisation can result in unpredictable motor movements. By an unintentional direction of rotation, too high speeds or jerky operation, powered machine parts can be damaged!

Parameterising & configuring the devices ( 132)

3.4.1Displaying parameter values

Device parameter settings shown in the workspace of the »Engineer« (e.g. in the Parameters tab for a device) are displayed with different background colours with the following meaning:

Colour	Example	Meaning
Offline representation
White		Offline parameter
		• The device is not connected "online" with the »Engineer«. The "offline" parameter
		value set in the project is displayed.
Light grey		Offline display parameter
		• So-called "display parameters" are parameters which are only used to show
		status information and actual values and which feature a read-only access.
Online representation
Yellow		Online parameter (value can be changed)
		• The device is connected "online" with the »Engineer«. The current parameter
		value of the device is displayed.
		• The symbol in front of a parameter value indicates that the value in the device
		differs from the parameter value set in the project.
Pale yellow		Online display parameter (read only)
		• The device is "online", i.e. connected to »Engineer«. The current parameter value
		of a display parameter of the device is shown.
Red		Communication error (time-out)
		• Communication to a device is interrupted, the online parameter could not be

3.11Options for the representation/project memory location

Via the Tools Options menu command you open the Options dialog box. In this dialog box you can carry out general settings for the user interface in the Environment tab.

•In the Environment tab general settings can be edited.

•The settings are not a project property. Thus the settings are maintained for the following »Engineer« projects.

Option	Description
• Activate confirmation prompt	Activate/deactivate confirmation prompt that is shown when components
when deleting components	are deleted.
	• If this option is deactivated, the »Engineer« directly deletes the desired
	component without a confirmation prompt.
• Register external applications	Specifies that the »Engineer« automatically writes the required entries into
automatically	the Windows registry to start external programs.
	• Like this the external program is registered for use in the »Engineer« and
	can thus be called by the »Engineer«. Registration is effected in
	accordance with the general Windows operating system standards.
	• This option is activated by default.

	Example:
	When a Servo Drive 9400 HighLine is updated, the »Engineer« calls the »PLC
	Designer« to compile the program code which was previously created from
	the function block interconnection.
	On the Engineering PC several versions of »Engineer« and/or the »PLC
	Designer« can be installed. When the option is activated, the »Engineer«
	automatically ensures that the "suitable" (expected) »PLC Designer« version
	is used for the compilation process.
	Note:
	If unexpected malfunction on your system occurs by this procedure, you can
	deactivate this option.
	For instance administrated access authorisation can prevent the »Engineer«
	from writing into the registry.
	In order to ensure that the external programs can be called by the
	»Engineer«, you then have to make sure that after installing the »Engineer«
	no other version of the program to be called by the »Engineer« has been
	installed on your Engineering PC. Otherwise malfunction or an unexpected
	response of the controller may result!
• Change representation of the	Specify the form of representation of the Project view bar: Filtering the

	• For instance, the Project view bar can be masked out to increase the size
	of the Workspace. User interface ( 13)
• Standard memory location for	Specify the standard memory location for the creation of »Engineer«

	• The standard memory location can also be defined when a new project is
	created. Updating projects while opening them: Adapting project file

• Representation of descriptive	Specify the type of representation of the descriptive texts.
texts	• The standard setting is "simple and self-explanatory". By this the
	respective descriptive text is reduced to the essential.
	• "Formally more clearly" provides further information. Hence, the
	descriptive texts are written in greater detail.
	• The option for instance has a (device-independent) effect on all codes and
	selection texts in the »Engineer«, which contain further descriptive texts.
	• The option will become effective after an »Engineer« restart.
