About This Publication
The purpose of this quick start is to describe how to apply application templates to start development of your PlantPAx™ Process Automation System. Basic procedures explain how to configure pre-built controller and human-machine interface (HMI) templates to provide an application framework with these goals:
• Provides a consistent starting point for system implementation
• Promotes a standardized application framework for control systems and process skids to provide a unified system experience
• Reduces implementation risks and promotes application practices for optimal system performance
Before using this guide, you must have an installed system available to follow the procedures in this guide. You also need to make sure your system is properly sized by using the PlantPAx System Estimator (PSE). The PSE is part of the Integrated Architecture™ Builder (IAB) tools.
For more information on system resources, such as Define and Procure and System Set-up, see the Additional Resources on page 8
This guide walks you through the tasks for applying the templates that provide a starting point for your application specific code. In Figure 1

Chapter 1 Configure the Controller Application
IMPORTANT
TIP
Configure Controller Task Rates
The controller template contains nine predefined periodic tasks, eight of these named Task A…H. There is a separate periodic task named Controller Status, which is used to collect system diagnostics, for example, by using the L_CPU Add-On Instruction.
Each task is set to execute at a defined time interval from 50 ms…10 s, with faster tasks getting higher priority.
Best practice is for your task setup to match the execution rates used during system sizing, with unused tasks being deleted or inhibited.
We recommend that you use a minimal number of periodic tasks to provide required execution rates. A controller is typically configured with four periodic tasks: fast, medium, slow, and a dedicated task for diagnostics. For details, see Task Configuration and CPU Utilization in the PlantPAx Process Automation System Reference Manual, publication PROCES-RM001

The displays included in the template have the following naming structure:
•(FRAME) is a prefix used on items intended only to be used as is with minimum customization. These may be instantiated to create different environments on large projects.
P1f is a unique template identifier. This prefix identifies the template that is being applied as well as the files that are part of the template.
Te m p l a t e is used to identify a template that can be copied multiple times to create application-specific content. If this is not a template display, this word is omitted.
• The remaining name is a brief description of the display file. We suggest that these names be similar across templates. For example, P1 Home is the initial display.

TIP
The Server Status faceplate appears.
The example shows a networked station application with the FactoryTalk server, HMI server, and data server on one workstation. None of the servers is redundant in this application example.
We recommend that diagnostic alarms for network adapters and I/O modules be added to the Alarm server to be displayed on the alarm banner and included in the alarm log and history.
