FactoryTalk eProcedure introduction

What is eProcedure?

FactoryTalk® eProcedure® is part of the FactoryTalk Batch suite of software components. As part of the FactoryTalk family, the FactoryTalk Batch components increase overall plant efficiency by delivering the visibility, control, and reporting needed to optimize manufacturing. Coordinated execution reduces rework and improves product quality and consistency. Real-time management of equipment utilization maximizes return on assets. Implementing optimized recipes and procedures, increases plant capacity. Using electronic, paperless operations improves productivity. Reduce compliance costs by using electronic batch record implementation, paperless manufacturing, and quality sign-offs. Lifting the compliance burden from manufacturing reduces inventory levels and cycle times, which greatly improves customer service.

The FactoryTalk Batch components ensure that plant floor operations are optimized, giving quick returns on net assets. New product definitions are deployed quickly into manufacturing. Production order information is accurate. Business and plant-level control systems are tightly coordinated and multiple sites operate as a team. Our completely open, configurable set of products helps you define, manage, monitor, and control manufacturing at local, remote, or contractor plants. Best of all, deploy the FactoryTalk Batch components wherever needed (one at a time or all at once) to improve productivity and plant control. The FactoryTalk Batch components include:

•FactoryTalk Batch

•FactoryTalk eProcedure

•FactoryTalk Batch Material Manager

As one of the FactoryTalk Batch components, FactoryTalk eProcedure manages, sequences and documents the execution of manual operations. Automating batch sheets and standard operating procedures (SOPs) through interactive web documents, eProcedure provides the control needed to rapidly deploy new products into manufacturing and the data collection necessary to achieve true plant floor to enterprise-wide integration. FactoryTalk eProcedure provides the benefits of procedure automation without the expense of equipment automation. The FactoryTalk Batch components incorporate the principles of batch and procedure automation, an approach defined by ISA’s S88.01 standard.

Chapter 1	FactoryTalk eProcedure introduction

Benefits of eProcedure

FactoryTalk eProcedure automation provides a means to automate the execution of procedural logic associated with recipes, product grade changes, computer setup, and computer shutdown procedures. Operators perform the actions on the equipment, but they are prompted and guided by eProcedure. The procedure specifies the sequence and timing of actions that can be manually performed or performed by automation equipment.

Typical procedures that can be automated using FactoryTalk eProcedure include:

•Batch execution

•Equipment startup and shutdown

•Product changeover

•Abnormal condition handling

FactoryTalk eProcedure reduces the amount of effort required to create and maintain recipes, as well as minimizes the time required to collect and report Batch data.

The following describes a typical recipe execution process, with and without eProcedure:

FactoryTalk eProcedure can be implemented in a completely manual manufacturing facility or in a partially automated facility. With eProcedure, use all manual phases or a combination of manual and automated phases within a single recipe. Regardless of the state of automation, the implementation process is the same.

The FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor is used to define the process equipment, both manual and automated. The modular approach in defining equipment is as appropriate with manual facilities as it is in automated

facilities. As part of the configuration process, attach instruction files to each of the manual equipment modules.

Instruction files are HTML files that include all of the required control steps for a phase. Each control step can include textual instructions, embedded parameter values, report fields for operator input, and submit buttons. Control steps may also include any valid HTML component.

Once the equipment is defined, and the instruction files are created, create recipes in the same fashion as a completely automated facility.

FactoryTalk eProcedure allows the operator to create and command batches from remote computers using Microsoft Internet Explorer. With eProcedure, the operator no longer needs to write processing information on a piece of paper for submission. The operator enters the data directly into the computer where the data is stored in an electronic batch record, which can later be downloaded into your ODBC-compliant database.

FactoryTalk Batch comes with several components that interact with each other to design, create, configure and run batch recipes.

The FactoryTalk Batch Server is the engine that runs FactoryTalk Batch. It is the component that controls system information, phases and recipes. The server allows integration with process-connected devices (PCDs) and thirdparty software packages. Prior to opening FactoryTalk Batch View, the FactoryTalk Batch Server must be running and remain active during all batch functions.

The FactoryTalk Batch Server operates as a Windows service, which means that the FactoryTalk Batch Server can be configured to start automatically and that control of the FactoryTalk Batch Server can be given to the Windows Service Manager. Because the FactoryTalk Batch Server runs as a service, it does not require an operator to log on to run. Therefore, logging on or off Windows during operation does not disrupt the performance of the FactoryTalk Batch Server.

This topic describes FactoryTalk Batch View on a Windows desktop system.

Tip: The modern FactoryTalk Batch View is an innovative and intuitive user interface for your comprehensive batch solution. It leverages state-of-the-art web technologies with scalable graphics for consistent visualization across all devices and form factors. The zero-install browser simplifies administration and maintenance. As the only native client application that supports the new features in FactoryTalk Batch and eProcedure, it is the client of the future for modern batch solutions.

For more information about the new FactoryTalk Batch View mobile solution, view the FactoryTalk Batch View User Manual (FTBVS-UM002).

FactoryTalk Batch View is the batch recipe initiation and execution program used by the operator of the FactoryTalk Batch Automation Solution system to:

•Initiate and control the batch process

•Display a graphical representation of a running batch and its associated data

Typically, FactoryTalk Batch View is intended to be used in conjunction with an HMI.

Each FactoryTalk Batch View window can be customized to suit the needs of a specific station:

•Specify the columns to display

•Specify the size of columns and rows

•Sort and filter on one field in certain windows

•Set the font for each FactoryTalk Batch View window

If the security is enabled for FactoryTalk Batch View, a system administrator can use the password protection option to:

•Limit the information that is displayed

•Specify the commands that are allowed at a particular station

Using FactoryTalk Batch View, an operator can respond to electronic signature requests that have been generated by report and recipe parameter deviations or by a command execute request.

The FactoryTalk Batch Recipe Editor is used to graphically create and configure recipes.

•The interface is based on IEC 61131-3 sequential function charts (SFC) that graphically organizes recipes into procedures, unit procedures, operations and phases along with any applicable comments.

•In addition to the SFC view, the FactoryTalk Batch Recipe Editor offers a table view. Table-based recipes provide a mechanism for creating simple recipes that do not require a complex recipe structure or elaborate transition expressions. Additionally, you can view tablebased recipes and edit all recipe parameters without having to navigate between steps.

Chapter 1	FactoryTalk eProcedure introduction

FactoryTalk Batch

Equipment Editor

•The FactoryTalk Batch Recipe Editor allows you to specify sequences of phases. The actual phase logic must be configured in the processconnected device (PCD) while the interface to the PCD must be configured in the FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor.

•Recipe reports can be generated in SFC and/or descriptive format.

•If Recipe Approvals are enabled in the underlying area model, approval signoffs are executed in the FactoryTalk Batch Recipe Editor.

•When Recipe Version Control is enabled, a version of a recipe (a readonly, numbered snapshot of a recipe) can be saved and protected from further editing. New work-in-progress (WIP) copies of a version allow the recipe author to continue to make changes and updates to a recipe. When a versioned recipe no longer matches the underlying area model, or references a deleted or non-existent sub-recipe, it is marked as obsolete.

The FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor is a graphical interface through which a database of process equipment is defined and maintained (an area model).

•Components defined in the FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor are used to interface with process-connected devices (PCDs) in the facility. During recipe configuration, the area model provides a list of available units and phase classes.

•Configure phases and commands to trigger an electronic signature request when a report or recipe parameter is out of range (parameter deviation), or when specific commands are executed on a batch (such as Abort Batch or Active Step Change).

•During recipe verification, the area model confirms that the designated equipment is capable of executing the procedures.

•During recipe execution, resource arbitration functions use the area model to allocate equipment based on recipe and operator requests.

•The area model is available to all other FactoryTalk Batch applications.

In addition to the area model, the FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor allows configuration of the following:

•Communication functions

•Electronic signatures

•Enumeration sets

•Data servers

•Recipe approvals

•Recipe version control

•FactoryTalk Event Archiver functions

15

Chapter 1 FactoryTalk eProcedure introduction

FactoryTalk Event Archiver The FactoryTalk Event Archiver’s purpose is to translate the FactoryTalk Batch tab-delimited ASCII electronic batch record files to a user-specified file type.

These electronic batch record files are maintained separately for each batch created and viewed with a word processor or spreadsheet. Many plants have standardized on one of the many commercially available Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) software packages. We recommend using a high-performance database, such as SQL Server, due to their better robustness and performance. The Archiver collects data from each electronic batch record file and stores it in the specified RDBMS database format.

FactoryTalk Batch Network

Editor

The FactoryTalk Batch Network Editor is a utility that indicates where other FactoryTalk Batch and FactoryTalk Batch Material servers are located on the network. This network configuration allows for ease of integration with other FactoryTalk Batch components and simplifies the process of reconfiguring a multi-computer system. If FactoryTalk Batch Material Manager is also installed the FactoryTalk Batch Network Editor is also used to indicate the location of the material database.

The FactoryTalk eProcedure Client computer uses Internet Explorer to enable operators to run batch recipes.

The FactoryTalk eProcedure Server provides the services to the FactoryTalk Batch Server to enable the use of HTML instruction files. Prior to opening FactoryTalk eProcedure Client, FactoryTalk eProcedure Server must be running and remain active during all batch functions.

FactoryTalk Batch Material Manager is used to track material consumption in batch recipes. It consists of two components: Material Server and Material Editor.

The Material Editor provides an interface to help you create the material database, which consists of material, lot, sublot, container, and storage location data. The Material Server provides the communication between the material database and the FactoryTalk Batch Server. During a batch run, information about available containers is presented to the operator for binding decisions. Binding is the process of mapping steps within a control recipe to actual equipment in a plant. After a batch is run, quantities consumed or distributed are updated in the material database for use in inventory tracking.

Chapter 1	FactoryTalk eProcedure introduction

The Material Server consists of a group of components that work together to service various applications. The primary applications that the Material Server services are the Material Editor, FactoryTalk Batch Server, FactoryTalk Batch Recipe Editor, and FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor. Any third-party application can also use custom solutions based on the exposed Material Object Model (MOM).
