9. Close the Hardware Configurator.

2.3 Copying and linking a function block

The supplied function blocks are embedded in the ProMinent
sample project “Gammadp.zip”; this is the only way that they
can be transported.

The principle steps:

1 - Download the zipped installation package (such as “Gamma‐

Sigma_S7_Funktionsblock.zip”) from the website (prerequisite).

2 - Drag the ProMinent sample project “Gammadp.zip” out of the installa‐

tion package (prerequisite).

3 - Create a function in your own project (here FC1).

4 - Save the zipped ProMinent sample project “Gammadp.zip” in the

Simatic Manager and open it - in this process it will simultaneously be
unzipped - retrieved.

5 - Copy the function block or the function blocks from this location into

your own project.

6 - Link the required function blocks into your own function (in this case

FC1).

7 - Generate a data block.

8 - Enter the addresses in the function block.

9 - Enter the function parameters in the function block.

Each function block needs a data block to save its data
(DB ...).

For better understandability use the same number that is
used for the function block when naming the data block.

10. Click the red

“???”

and assign a name for the data block of this

function block (e.g. “DB110”).

In this process the data block will be generated auto‐
matically in the background.

Fig. 26

ð

Now function block FB110 has the data block DB110 - see 1st
red box.

Integrating the device and the function block into your own project

26

11. Now the complete addresses must still be entered on the input of
the function block - see 2nd red box. Then go back to the Hardware
Configurator (e.g. via the task bar on the lower edge):

Fig. 27

ð

The green lines that in the screenshot show the relationship
between the input addresses (

“I_Adr_...”

-->

“I-address)”

). The
red arrows show the relationship between the output addresses
(

“O_Adr_...”

-->

“O-address)”

).

12. In the function block, click in front of the selected address name (left
in Fig. 27, bordered).

13. See the table “Relationship: Address names - slots of the function
block” for the associated slot of the appropriate function block, in
chapter 3.

14. In the Hardware Configurator, find the start address of the appro‐
priate address range for this slot.

15. Enter the start address in the function block and press the

[ENTER]

key.

16. Perform this step for all

“I_Adr_...”

and

“O_Adr_...”

.

17. To specify the remaining parameters, use your own operating con‐
cept for this pump and refer to the tables in chapter 3.

Interfaces Type Description

ixStart_Stop Bool If a 1 is applied on this input and if there is no fault, the

pump will be activated.

If the pump does not run or is not at a standstill the fol‐
lowing causes are possible:

n PROFIBUS® is faulty
n Pump is not in PROFIBUS® mode
n PROFIBUS® address is not correct
n Configuration is not correct
n Pump is manually set to stop
n Setpoint is on 0% (irSetpoint_0_100)
n ixFault_Lock = 1 and oxError = 1 or oxProfibus = 1
n Use Profibus Workaround

Adapt iiCycle_Error

ixReset Bool Resets the bit messages oxWarning, oxError and oxEr‐

rorProfibus. Resets the pump (positive flank sent).

ixFault_Lock Bool If 0, then the pump does not include a locking mechanism

for stored faults.

Logical link:

Start pump = ixStart_Stop

i.e. because the faults oxError and oxErrorProfibus
require acknowledgment, the pump automatically starts
up again if there is a fault on both sides.

If 1, then the pump does not include a locking mechanism
via fault messages oxError or oxErrorProfibus.

Logical link:

Start pump = ixStart_Stop & oxError = 0 & oxErrorPro‐
fibus = 0

i.e because the faults oxError and oxErrorProfibus
require acknowledgment, the pump does not automati‐
cally start up again if there is a fault on both sides.

irSetpoint_0_100 Real Entry of the setpoint of the metering pump in %.

The formula of the calculation is:

Set frequency = MaxFrequency * irSetpoint / 100

Through the real number the speed on the stroke can be
precisely selected, because the entry of 49.99%, for
example, is possible.

Likewise a direct connection of the integrated S7 con‐
troller is possible. For this the output parameter LMN
must be connected on this input.

Interfaces of the function block

Function blocks for gamma/L and Sigmas

32

Interfaces Type Description

iiCycle_Error Int Specification of the cycles as delay of the warning and

fault oxWarning, oxError and oxErrorProfibus.

Through the delay short drop-outs in the PROFIBUS

®

system can be bridged.

The delay time is calculated as follows:

When using the function block in OB1:

Delay = measured cycle time * iiCycle_Error

When using the function block in OB35:

Delay = time wake alarm * iiCycle_Errror

This value uses the workaround Profibusbug.

If the pump is not at a standstill, or if it does not start up
on its own after a Profibus fault, adjust the value so that a
value of approx. 1s is achieved.

Example:

Call block of pump P1 every 50 ms, then the value 20
should be set.

oxRunning Bool 0 = pump is at standstill

1 = pump is running

oxWarning Bool 0 = No warning

1 = Warning active

oxError Bool 0 = no fault

1 = fault active

oxErrorProfibus Bool 0 = Profibus OK

1 = Profibus faulty

oyMode Byte 00 = Manual

01 = Batch

02 = Contact

03 = Analogue

orActualFrequency Real Actual stroke frequency in strokes/min

orActualDosingVolume Real For calibrated pump: Actual metering quantity in l or gal‐

lons

For uncalibrated pump: Value 0

version of the number into the real format

Status.Error Bool Errors are present.

Status.Warnings Bool Warnings are present.

Status.Intake Bool Pump is in intake operation (higher-level function - see

metering pump operating manual)

Status.Auxiliary Bool Pump is in auxiliary mode (higher-level function)

Status.Pause Bool Pump is switched to pause (higher-level function)

Status.Stop Bool Pump is stopped

Status.Flow Bool 1 = Metering monitor present

Status.FlowActive Bool 1 = Metering monitor activated

Status.FactorDivider Bool 1 =1/100, 0=1/1

Status.BatchMemory Bool 1 = Batch memory is activated

Status.Unit Bool 1 = Gallons, 0 = Litres

Status.Calibrated Bool 1 = Pump is calibrated

Status.PBWD Bool 1 (always)

Flag name Type Description

iiCycleWarning Int Flag - for how many cycle has the warning already been

queued. If this counter is > iiCycle_Error, then oxWarning
will be set

iiCycleFault Int Flag - for how many cycle has the fault has already been

queued. If this counter is > iiCycle_Error, then oxError will
be set

iiCycleFaultPB Int Flag - for how many cycle has the fault Profibus already

been queued. If this counter is > iiCycle_Error, then oxEr‐
rorProfibus will be set

iiWorkaround Int Internal use for workaround

iiWorkaround2 Int Internal use for workaround

3.3 Function block FB111 for complete functionality

3.3.1 Explanations of the operating modes

An the input

“iyMode”

, these operating modes can be selected:

00 - Manual

01 - Batch

02 - Contact

03 - Analog

ixStartStop = 1 & (ixFault_Lock = 0 or (ixFault_Lock = 1 & oxError = 0 &
oxErrorProfibus = 0)

with metering speed (strokes / h)

Maximum frequency * irSetpoint0_100 / 100

The pump does not start up, if:

ixStartStop = 0

3.3.1.2

Mode type batch

In

“Charge”

mode the following signals are relevant:

n ixStart_Stop
n ixStartBatch_Or_Contact
n ixBatchContactMemory
n irSetpoint0_100
n idStrokesInBatch
n ixFault_Lock
n oxError
n oxErrorProfibus
n odActualStrokesInBatch
n odRemainStrokesInBatch

Without memory function: ixBatchContactMemory = 0

With the input

“ixStart_Stop”

the pump can be switched off at any time.

Recommendation for operation:

“Set ixStart_Stop”

on 1 and only on 0 if

needed.

The input

“irSetpoint0_100”

specifies the metering speed.

Locking mechanism = manual mode

“ixStartStop”

= 1 & (

“ixFault_Lock”

= 0 or (

“ixFault_Lock”

= 1 &

“oxError”

= 0 &

“oxErrorProfibus”

= 0)

Metering speed (strokes / h) =

Maximum frequency *

“irSetpoint0_100”

/ 100

The pump does not start up, if:

“ixStartStop”

= 0

The pumps starts, at:

Positive flank on input

“ixStartBatch_Or_Contact”

.

Remaining strokes will be set to the value

“idStrokesInBatch”

(

“odRemainStrokesInBatch”

=

“idStrokesInBatch”

). The metering pump

runs until the remaining strokes counter is on 0.

A renewed flank on

“ixStartBatch_Or_Contact”

resets the value of the

remaining strokes to

“idStrokesInBatch”

. If the flank occurs during the

batch, the value will be limited to only idStrokesInBatch.

With memory function: ixBatchContactMemory = 1

Same as “Without memory function: ixBatchContactMemory = 0, but ...

The pumps starts, at:

Function blocks for gamma/L and Sigmas

35

Positive flank on input

“ixStartBatch_Or_Contact”

.

Remaining strokes will be set to the value

“idStrokesInBatch”

(

“odRemainStrokesInBatch”

=

“idStrokesInBatch”

). The metering pump

runs until the remaining strokes counter is on 0.

A renewed flank on

“ixStartBatch_Or_Contact”

resets the value of the

remaining strokes to

“idStrokesInBatch”

. If the flank on

“ixStartBatch_Or_Contact”

increases the value of the remaining strokes

by

“idStrokesInBatch”

.

3.3.1.3 Mode type contact

In

“contact”

mode the following signals are relevant:

n ixStart_Stop
n ixStartBatch_Or_Contact
n ixBatchContactMemory
n irSetpoint0_100
n iiTransMultiplier (1_9999 = 0.01 - 99.99)
n ixFault_Lock
n oxError
n oxErrorProfibus

Without memory function: ixBatchContactMemory = 0

With the input

“ixStart_Stop”

the pump can be switched off at any time.

Recommendation for operation:

“Set ixStart_Stop”

on 1 and only on 0 if

needed.

The input

“irSetpoint0_100”

specifies the metering speed.

Locking mechanism = manual mode

“ixStartStop”

= 1 & (

“ixFault_Lock”

= 0 or (

“ixFault_Lock”

= 1 &

“oxError”

= 0 &

“oxErrorProfibus”

= 0)

Metering speed (strokes / h) =

Maximum frequency *

“irSetpoint0_100”

/ 100

The pump does not start up, if:

“ixStartStop”

= 0

The pumps starts, at:

Positive flank on input

“ixStartBatch_Or_Contact”

.

Number of strokes =

“iiTransMultiplier”

If

“iiTransMultiplier”

= 500 (corresponds to 5 strokes) is set,

then the number of strokes = 5.00 = 5 (per positive flank).

Example 1

If

“iiTransMultiplier”

= 50 (corresponds to 0.5 strokes) is set,

then the number of strokes = 0.5 = 2 (per positive flank), i.e. every 2
flanks the pump makes 1 stroke.

Example 2

A renewed flank on

“ixStartBatch_Or_Contact”

sets the value of the

Prerequisite: Two remaining strokes are still in memory.

If

“iiTransMultiplier”

= 500 (corresponds to 5 strokes) is set,

then the number of strokes = 5 (per positive flank) + 2 = 7.

Example

3.3.1.4 Analog mode

In

“analog”

mode the following signals are relevant:

n ixStart_Stop
n ixFault_Lock
n oxError
n oxErrorProfibus

The pumps starts, if:

ixStartStop = 1 & (ixFault_Lock = 0 or (ixFault_Lock = 1 & oxError = 0 &
oxErrorProfibus = 0)

with metering speed (strokes / h) in accordance with setting mA:

4mA = x strokes,

20mA = y strokes * (mA on pump /( y – x) strokes)

The pump does not start up, if:

ixStartStop = 0

Interfaces Type Description

ixStart_Stop Bool If a 1 is applied on this input and if there is no fault, the

pump will be activated.

If the pump does not run or is not at a standstill the fol‐
lowing causes are possible:

n PROFIBUS® is faulty
n Pump is not in PROFIBUS® mode
n PROFIBUS® address is not correct
n Configuration is not correct
n Pump is manually set to stop
n Setpoint is on 0% (irSetpoint_0_100)
n ixFault_Lock = 1 and oxError = 1 or oxProfibus = 1
n Use Profibus Workaround

Adapt iiCycle_Error

ixStartBatch_Or_Contact Bool Mode batch - iyMode = 1 pump starts batch mode at a

positive flank

ixBatchContactMemory Bool 0 = Memory function is switched off

1 = Memory function is active

ixReset Bool Resets the bit messages oxWarning, oxError and oxEr‐

rorProfibus. Resets the pump (positive flank sent).

ixFault_Lock Bool If 0, then the pump does not include a locking mechanism

for stored faults.

Logical link:

Start pump = ixStart_Stop

i.e. because the faults oxError and oxErrorProfibus
require acknowledgment, the pump automatically starts
up again if there is a fault on both sides.

If 1, then the pump does not include a locking mechanism
via fault messages oxError or oxErrorProfibus.

Logical link:

Start pump = ixStart_Stop & oxError = 0 & oxErrorPro‐
fibus = 0

i.e because the faults oxError and oxErrorProfibus
require acknowledgment, the pump does not automati‐
cally start up again if there is a fault on both sides.

ixResetStrokeCounter Bool At a positive flank the stroke counter will be reset.

ixResetStrokeQuantity Bool At a positive flank the quantity counter will be reset.

ixFlowControl_OnOff Bool 0 = Metering monitor off

1 = Metering monitor on

Prerequisite is an installed metering monitor.

iyMode Byte 00 = Manual

01 = Batch

02 = Contact

03 = Analogue

Interfaces of the function block

Function blocks for gamma/L and Sigmas

40

Interfaces Type Description

irSetpoint_0_100 Real Entry of the setpoint of the metering pump in %.

The formula of the calculation is:

Set frequency = MaxFrequency * irSetpoint / 100

Through the real number the speed on the stroke can be
precisely selected, because the entry of 49.99%, for
example, is possible.

Likewise a direct connection of the integrated S7 con‐
troller is possible. For this the output parameter LMN
must be connected on this input.

idStrokesInBatch DInt 0-99999 can be set for batch mode. At a positive flank on

the input ixStartBatch_Or_Contact, this number of strokes
will be executed.

iiCycle_Error Int Specification of the cycles as delay of the warning and

fault oxWarning, oxError and oxErrorProfibus.

Through the delay short drop-outs in the PROFIBUS

®

system can be bridged.

The delay time is calculated as follows:

When using the function block in OB1:

Delay = measured cycle time * iiCycle_Error

When using the function block in OB35:

Delay = time wake alarm * iiCycle_Errror

This value uses the workaround Profibusbug.

If the pump is not at a standstill, or if it does not start up
on its own after a Profibus fault, adjust the value so that a
value of approx. 1s is achieved.

Example:

Call block of pump P1 every 50 ms, then the value 20
should be set.

oxRunning Bool 0 = pump is at standstill

1 = pump is running

oxWarning Bool 0 = No warning

1 = Warning active

oxError Bool 0 = no fault

1 = fault active

oxErrorProfibus Bool 0 = Profibus OK

1 = Profibus faulty

oyMode Byte 00 = Manual

01 = Batch

02 = Contact

03 = Analogue

orActualFrequency Real Actual stroke frequency in strokes/min

oiStrokeLength Int 0 – 100 = 0-100% set stroke length on the metering pump

odStrokeNumber DInt Current number in the stroke counter in the metering

pump

orQuantity Real Current quantity in the quantity counter of the metering

pump

orVolumePerStroke Real Output volume per metering stroke (only for calibrated

metering pump)
