Axioline F Node
The 'Axioline F' node represents the Axioline F controller. After adding Axioline F I/O devices, these are contained as child elements under the 'Axioline F' node. All editors for configuring the controller are accessible by double-clicking the 'Axioline F' node.
The 'Axioline F' node in the PLANT provides the following editors:
- 'Settings' - displays information on the Axioline F controller. In addition, you can set which task is used to update the Axioline-specific system variables (variables start with 'AXIO') and the assigned global variables ('Update task') and which task is used to trigger the Axioline I/O update ('Trigger task').
-
'Device List'
(also referred to as station editor) - lists the Axioline F I/O devices which are connected to the local Axioline bus and are contained under the 'Axioline F' node.
Here, the 'Function' and 'Location' of each device can be edited. New devices can be added to the PLANT in this table. - 'Data List' - enables the assignment (mapping) of process data items (i.e., terminals provided by all contained I/O devices) to global variables and/or HMI tags.
-
'GDS Port List'
- displays all input and output ports provided by each Axioline F module under the 'Axioline F' node. Port properties cannot be edited here. This is only possible in the variables table of the corresponding program POU.
