Product Description
Operator Panels OP5 and OP15 allow operating states, current process values and malfunctions of a connected PLC to be visualized. In addition, inputs can be made on the OP which can be written directly to the PLC. Some functions relating to machine diagnostics can also be executed on the Operator Panel. The Operator Panels are suitable for fitting into switching cabinets and control desks. A printer can be attached to the OP for logging processes during automation operation. The Operator Panels feature a number of standard functions. The displays and operation of the devices can be optimized by the configurer to meet the requirements of the process.
1.1
Before an OP can go into service, it has to be prepared for its job of visualizing data from the PLC, i.e. it has to be configured. As far as the PLC is concerned, data areas used by the OP to communicate with the PLC have to be created in the memory.
The configuration for the OP is created on a computer (PC/PU) using ProTool/Lite configuration software under MicrosoftR WindowsTM. When the configuration is ready, it is transferred to the OP. Before this can be done, however, the computer has to be connected to the Operator Panel. Following transfer of the configuration, the OP has to be connected to the PLC. The OP now communicates with the PLC and reacts to program flows on the PLC on the basis of the configured requirements. The following illustration depicts the configuration and process control phases de scribed above:

Figure 1-1
Text which is required to be displayed on the OP has first to be created on the PC/PU with ProTool/Lite and then transferred to the OP. If, for example, text for display is required to comprise static and variable components, the variables have to be configured and the static text for explaining the variables has to be entered for example: Temperature Variable_xx C of Furnace 1 Here, Temperature C of Furnace 1 is the static text and Variable_xx is the variable that is read from the memory area of the PLC.
Further information
You will find information on configuring the OP in the ProTool/ Lite Users Guide. The Communications Users Guide provides information on connecting the OP to the PLC.

Product Description
1.2
The basic functions of an OP consist in displaying process states and in control ling the process. The following display and control functions can be configured on Operator Panels OP5 and OP15:
S screens S event messages S alarm messages S recipes S information text S logging S languages.
Screens Data supplied by the PLC may be displayed together on a screen and modified individually, if required. A screen consists of several screen entries since, for example, more related data are required for describing a machine state than can normally be displayed in the window of a screen. Therefore data on operating temperature, fill level, speed and running time can illustrate the current machine state. The OP5 and OP15 are line displays. Accordingly, a screen on the display comprises text items which may include static text and current state values. Screens may be combined on the OP in a directory. You can use the directory to display, print and edit screens.
Event messages
Event messages are information and operating notes on current machine and process states during regular production operations. Event messages may contain process values. Process values are displayed either numerically for example, Motor running at 3000 revs or symbolically for example, Motor running normally, where a specific control value is assigned to normally. The classification of a message as an event message is done at the configuration stage.
Alarm messages
Alarm messages show, in contrast to event messages, critical machine states dur ing production operations. Due to their urgency, they have to be acknowledged before any other action is possible.
1-3
Product Description
Alarm messages may contain process values. Process values are displayed either numerically for example Motor speed 4500 or symbolically for example Motor speed too high, where a specific control value is assigned to too high. This type of message has a higher display priority than an event message. If an alarm message is issued, any event message or screen that is being displayed is replaced with a flashing alarm on the display. The classification of a message as an alarm message is made at the configuration stage.
Recipes
When a product is made up of various ingredients in certain ratios, this information is stored in a socalled recipe. Take orange juice for example. Its production and bottling requires that orange concentrate and water be mixed in a certain ratio. These values are stored as variables in a recipe. Each recipe can be made up of several data records containing different values for the recipe. The data can be edited in the OP, transferred to the PLC and read out from the PLC. In the OP, the recipes are combined by recipe number and title in a recipe directory.
Information text
Information text is additional information and hints for operators referring to the current display on the screen (event messages, alarm messages and screens). This means that additional troubleshooting information can be displayed when, for instance, an alarm message is issued. Information text can also be displayed by pressing a key, if required, when the LED of the HELP key is on.
Logging
Messages can be printed in online mode by means of the printer connected to the OP. Furthermore, there is a possibility of printing all the event and alarm messages that have accumulated in the buffer concerned.

Languages
Message text, screens, information text and system messages may be displayed in several languages. Up to three of the languages listed below can be loaded simultaneously on the same OP and presented to the operator for selection on line:

Loading a configuration
Once the operating voltage has been connected, you have to load a configuration into the OP so that you can operate it. The OP is in Transfer mode until a configuration is loaded.
The configuration software supplied to you, ProTool/Lite, includes a configuration which contains standard screens. You can choose all the functions required for operating the OPs by using these standard screens. The different functions are described in this manual with reference to the standard screens.
3.1
Operating Levels
In OP operation, you have to distinguish between two distinct operating levels, between which you can switch:
S Message level
At the message level, current messages are displayed.
S Screen level
At the screen level, functions are chosen, serviced and executed. The message level is the highest level on the OP. At message level, waiting event messages, alarm messages and system messages are displayed. After the OP starts up, it changes to message level and displays the standby message. The screen level is reached by pressing the ENTER key. The first screen to be called is the start screen. From the start screen you branch, depending on the configuration, to other screens. On the screens, you view current process values, can enter values and initiate functions by means of soft keys.
Screen hierarchy
The linking of individual screens is referred to as a screen hierarchy. If you go to the bottom of the screen hierarchy, you go back one stage by pressing key ESC, right back to the start screen should you wish. From here you can return to the message level by pressing the ESC key. You can also return directly to the message level from a screen, depending on the configuration.
3-1
S from message level to screen level by pressing the ENTER key, S from screen level to message level by pressing the ESCAPE key.
Figure 3-1 illustrates how you can change from one operating level to another. You cannot branch backward from the message level by pressing ESCAPE. The key is designed to terminate the display of a system message at this level.
Message level
ENTER
Screen level
ESC ACK
Figure 3-1
You exit from the screen level automatically whenever a system message or an alarm message is waiting to be displayed. The OP then changes to message level to display the message. You cannot exit from the message level while a system message or unacknowledged alarm message is being displayed. The display of an unacknowledged alarm message is indicated on the OP by the alarm message flashing and lit ACK LED. You acknowledge an alarm message by pressing the ACK key. You hide a system message by pressing the ESCAPE key. Once the alarm message has been acknowledged or the system message cleared, the OP returns to the point from which it changed to the message level.
3-2
3.2
Standard Screens
The standard screens contain functions that are fundamental to OP operation. They include, for instance, calling and printing message buffers, editing passwords and modifying parameters in online mode. Process-specific implementations, such as event messages or screens for the process, are not included.
Standard screens are called from a basic screen by means of a soft key. From the basic screen, a jump is made to the following screens:
S Alarm messages
At this point the alarm buffer is called, printed or deleted.
S Event messages
At this point the event buffer is called, printed or deleted.
S Screens
At this point the screen directory is called to edit or print screens. All the screens which were given the directory attribute are listed here. If you still have not created any screens of your own, the directory will be empty.
S Data records
At this point you can set up and edit data records. You can also transfer data records from the OP to the PLC and back.
S System settings
At this point you can modify settings in online mode. This includes, for example, printer parameters, interface parameters, mode, and language changing.
S Status variable
At this point the PU function STATUS VAR is called; you can use it to display PLC operands.
S Force variable
At this point the PU function FORCE VAR is called; you can use it to display and modify PLC operands.
S Edit password
At this point the superuser assigns passwords for the different password levels. Furthermore, login and logout are included here. Figure 3-2 shows an overview of the screen hierarchy of standard screens. You will find detailed information on functions and handling standard screens in the relevant chapters of this manual.

With the ENTER-key, you change from message level to screen level. At this point you can control and monitor the process by means of suitable screens and standard screens and perform system settings. With reference to the standard screens, a description is provided below of the procedure for branching between individual screens within the screen hierarchy. Call in your configured screen hierarchy the standard basic screen. Its full name is displayed on the first line only with 4-line and 8-line displays. With 2-line displays, the screen name is not displayed. Depending on the OP version and display size concerned, the next lines include a different number of text elements of the current entry. These text elements show the name of other standard screens to which you can branch by using the assigned soft keys. Using the soft keys beneath the symbols << and >>, you can move the displayed screen segment of the current screen. You branch to the next screen by pressing the soft key beneath the appropriate text indicating the name of the screen to be called. Figure 3-3 shows the branch principle with reference to the 8-line display of the OP15/C. Figure 3-4 shows the branch principle of the 4-line display of the OP5.

General Operation
4.1.2
Information Text
Purpose
Information text contains information about the current display contents. It is created during configuration with ProTool/Lite and provides additional information in the language set on the OP. Information text can be configured for
S event messages and alarm messages, S screens, S screen entries, S input fields and dual I/O fields, S recipes, recipe entries, S schedulers.
Information text can be used to convey, for example, information to the user on the current assignment of the soft keys. Information text relating to an alarm message may contain additional hints, for example, on the possible cause of the alarm and how to remedy it.
The availability of information text is indicated by the HELP LED being lit. Configured information text can be output by pressing the HELP key on the OP. If the cursor is positioned in an input field or in an I/O field for which information text is available (lit LED), the information text is output by pressing the HELP key. Pressing the HELP key a second time displays information text associated with the screen entry, if configured. If the HELP key is pressed in a field for which information text is not available, information text associated with the screen entry, if configured, is displayed directly.
Configured information text associated with a screen is obtained either by pressing the HELP key in the directory when the cursor is positioned on the corresponding screen or within a screen when the cursor is positioned on the screen title. The UP and DOWN keys and are used to scroll through information text, if appropriate. The ESCAPE key terminates display of information text, and the previous display is shown again.

Entering Values
General procedure
In input fields, values can be entered on the OP and transferred to the PLC . 1. Branch, as described is section 3.3, initially to the screen you require and then to the corresponding screen entry. 2. Using the arrow keys, select the input field you require within the screen entry. 3. Then enter your value. Depending on how the field has been configured, values may be input as
S inputs of numerical values (refer to section 4.2.1), S inputs of alphanumeric values (refer to section 4.2.2), S inputs of symbolic values (refer to section 4.2.3).
4. Confirm your input with ENTER. You can cancel any incorrect input by pressing ESCAPE. The original value is then automatically reinserted in the field. Insert the correct value and then enter the corrected value by pressing ENTER. 5. Position the cursor in the next input field using the RIGHT or LEFT arrow key, insert the next value etc. You can also use the arrow keys to move the cursor to the left or right to the previous input field to insert a different value in it. 6. Close the screen by pressing ESCAPE.
4-6
General Operation
4.2.1
In fields that allow the operator to enter a numerical value, you enter the numerical value character by character using the keypad on the system keyboard.
If there is a value in the field already, it is cleared completely from the field when the first character is entered. Once input has been started, you cannot exit from the field until the input has been entered or canceled.
Right-justified input
In numerical fields, input initially is normally right-justified . Digits that have already been entered are moved to the left (pocket-calculator format). Exception: Input fields for variables in KM format for instance, when calling the PU functions STATUS/FORCE VAR are changed to left-justified . When input begins, the old value does not disappear from the display completely but its bit pattern is overwritten one character at a time. You move the cursor in this type of field by pressing an arrow key ( and ) with activated Shift Lock mode.
Limit-value check
You can configure limit values for numerical input fields. In this type of field, a limit-value check takes place, i.e. the entered values are applied only if they lie within the configured limits. If a value outside these limits is entered, a system message is displayed and, after it has been canceled, the old value is restored in the field.
Decimal places
If a numerical field has been configured with a certain number of decimal places and too many have been entered, they are ignored; if too few have been entered, the field is padded with zeroes.
4-7
General Operation
4.2.2
With the input of alphanumeric values, digits and letters are mixed. For the numerical components of the input, proceed as described in section 4.2.1. If, however, you wish to enter a letter at the current cursor position, you must enable the corresponding alphanumeric font. In this instance, you move the cursor with the cursor keys ( and ) with activated Shift Lock mode.
Entering A F characters
A F characters can be entered directly with activated Shift Lock mode using numeric keys 1 6. If you want to enter digits again after the letters, Shift Lock mode must be de-activated. To enter the alphanumeric string 7FEB53, for example, proceed as follows: 1. Enter 7 normally using the keypad on the system keyboard. 2. Press SHIFT. Shift Lock mode is indicated by the LED being on. 3. Using the keypad, enter in succession the letters F (on key 6), E (on key 5), B (on key 2). 4. Press SHIFT. Shift Lock is de-activated, the LED goes out. 5. Enter the remaining digits 5 and 3 with de-activated Shift Lock mode using keys 5 and 3 and confirm it by pressing ENTER.
If the characters available on the keypad are not sufficient for the alphanumeric input, you can select additional letters and special characters from the extended character set. The extended character set is available for all KC type fields. To enter the string 18OKT61, for example, proceed as follows: 1. Enter 1 and 8 normally using the keypad on the system keyboard. 2. Press SHIFT. Shift Lock mode is indicated by the LED being on. The extended character set is available. 3. Scroll with the UP or DOWN arrow key through the valid extended character set. 4. Select O and, using the arrow key, move right one position. 5. Select K and, using the arrow key, move right one position. 6. Select T and, using the arrow key, move right one position.
4-8
General Operation
7. Press SHIFT. Shift Lock mode is de-activated, the LED goes out. 8. Enter the remaining digits 6 and 1 as before using keys 6 and 1 with de-activated Shift Lock mode and terminate with ENTER.
4.2.3
If a field has to be filled by entering symbolic values, take the value from a list of options. 1. Press SHIFT in the input field. Shift Lock mode is indicated by the LED being on. The list of options with its configured symbolic inputs is activated. 2. Select the value you require using the arrow keys. 3. Enter the value you selected by pressing ENTER. Shift Lock mode is de-activated automatically when you press ENTER.

On the OP, the process for example, a processing machine or a mixing unit is displayed on screens and manipulated. The screens are configured by the configurer for specific users. On screens, associated process values are acquired and provide an overview of a process or system. In addition to this alphanumeric imaging of the process, screens provide a means of entering process values and, consequently, of controlling the process. Process values on a screen can be randomly assigned to subject-related groups. An example of this is shown in figure 5-1. 1 temperature: 80 C 2 temperature: 78 C 1 contents: 1200 l 2 contents: 3000 l pressure: normal pressure: slightly high

Possible return destinations are the message level another screen a directory the point at which the current screen was chosen.
Screen directory
Screens can be grouped during configuration in a screen directory, which is used to display them on screen or print and edit them. A screen can be retrieved from its screen directory by its screen number and its screen title, if configured.
5-1
Screens
5.1
Screen Entries
Screens consist of entries. Irrespective of the configured number of lines, precisely one entry is displayed per display page on the OP. Lines which may have not been fully configured are displayed as blank lines. An example of a screen entry is the two lines in the afore mentioned example (figure 5-1) Furnace 1 temperature: 80 5C Furnace 2 temperature: 78 5C.
S entry text
The static text contains explanations for the operator. It may also include information on how the soft keys have been assigned.
S soft keys
Different function calls for the different screens are assigned to the soft keys.
The configuration defines the intervals at which PLC values are updated, i.e. read again from the PLC and displayed. With large screens containing more than 159 actual values or setpoint-actual values, partial screen updating is automatically enabled. To enhance performance, only those values are updated which are currently present on the display. This may mean that an older value is briefly displayed when scrolling through screen entries. Updating of the visible actual values is faster as a result, however.
I/O fields
Output fields display actual values of the PLC in numerical or symbolic form; input fields define variables in numerical or symbolic form. In input fields, the flashing cursor is visible. For I/O fields, you can configure up to 256 text elements which you can call on the OP using a selection field and apply to the screen entry. With inputs of numerical values, configured number formats and limit values apply with respect to the number of places before and after the decimal point.

Choosing Screens
Choosing screens
Screens can be viewed on the OP and serviced (edited) and printed. Before this is possible, they have to be chosen. A screen can readily be chosen by means of
The configured assignment of the function keys, unlike the soft keys, is valid globally. In this way the screen that was permanently defined during configuration can be selected in any operating situation.
Depending on the action you want to take, call on of the two standard screens Screens ! Edit or Screens ! Print. Thereupon the screen directory is shown on the display. It contains only pictures which were included in the directory during configuration. You scroll through the screen directory using the arrow keys. A screen is chosen by pressing the ENTER key. As an alternative to the standard screen Screens ! Edit, you can call the screen directory using the DIR key on the system keyboard. A screen chosen with ENTER can be edited but not printed.
To implement operator guidance, a screen can be chosen from the PLC by means of a PLC job. In this instance, the cursor is already positioned in a specified entry or in an input field, in which the operator can perform his input.
5-3
Screens
5.3
Editing Screens
Procedure
Screens can be manipulated, i.e. edited, by means of entries in input fields and combined I/O fields. To edit a screen, proceed as follows: 1. Choose the screen you wish to edit as described in section 5.2. 2. The cursor jumps to the first input field. 3. Use the RIGHT ! or LEFT z arrow keys to move the cursor to the field concerned. 4. Perform the modifications you wish to make as described in section 4.2. 5. After confirming your input, position the cursor again, if necessary, to perform further modifications. 6. Terminate editing for example, by pressing ESCAPE.
5.4
Printing Screens
Procedure
To output a screen to a connected printer, proceed as follows: 1. Choose the screen you want to edit as described in section 5.2. The screen directory is displayed (but not when choosing by means of a function key or a PLC job; in these instances, the corresponding screen is printed immediately). 2. Scroll with the cursor keys DOWN # or UP " to the screen number you require or, if configured, to the screen title. 3. Press ENTER to print. 4. Terminate the action for example, by pressing ESCAPE.
5-4
Password Protection
To prevent unauthorized operation of the OP, there is the possibility of protecting access by means of passwords and password levels. This is possible for the call of functions and inputs.
6.1
Password hierarchy
When you are configuring, you assign ascending password levels from 0 to 9 for functions called on the OP by function keys, soft keys and input fields. The password levels assigned to standard screens are listed in Appendix A. Issue of a password to an operator means that permission is granted simultaneously to execute functions at a specific password level.
Password level 0
At this level, the lowest in the hierarchy, functions are assigned which, when executed, have no or little effect on the course of the process; these are normally calls of functions not having input options for example, viewing message buffers. A password is not required to call functions of password level 0. If an operator calls a function of a level other than 0, he is prompted on the display to enter a suitable password.
Password levels 1 to 8
Levels 0 to 8 are assigned to functions of ascending importance. A password level is assigned to a password by the superuser as part of his password management responsibilities.
Password level 9
Permission to execute functions of password level 9 is the sole responsibility of the superuser, who has access to all OP functions. Only the superuser is allowed to perform password management. The password for level 9 functions is created at the time of configuration. Synonymous with password level 9 is use of the authorization input. If an operator logs in with the password of a specific password level on the display, he is authorized to execute functions of this and lower levels.

Password Protection
6.2
Login/Logout on OP (LOGIN/LOGOUT)
Logging in
S by means of the standard screen Password Login, S if a function call is made on the OP for which the current password level
is too low, you are automatically prompted on the display to enter the corresponding password,
S by means of the authorization input (in special cases for example, during the commissioning phase) corresponding to password level 9. Logging in by standard screen 1. From the standard screen, choose Password Login. The password input screen is shown on the display. This screen is similarly displayed when a function call is made for which the current password level is too low.The cursor is located in the first field of the input area. 2. Enter the password on the system keyboard and terminate by pressing ENTER . The cursor jumps automatically to the next field every time a character is entered. The input of every character is represented by an asterisk (*) in the input area. The cursor is no longer visible after the last character has been typed. If the password is valid, the corresponding password level is shown on the display. 3. Exit from the standard screen for example, by pressing the ESCAPE key.
Automatic call
If a function requires a higher password level than the current one, you are automatically requested to enter a suitable password when the function is called. After entering the password, you return to the calling function by pressing ESCAPE.
Authorization input
During commissioning, it may be useful to avoid repeated logins on the OP as the superuser. This is possible if the authorization input is connected on the terminal strip of the OP to the authorization output by means of a lock switch or a bridge or if a dc voltage (+ 15 to 30 V) is applied to the authorization input. The OP then automatically assumes password level 9, i.e. without requesting a password. Choose the standard screen Password Logout. Upon selection of the standard screen, the OP switches from the current password level to the lowest password level, level 0, and branches to the message level.

6.3
Password Management
Only the superuser (password level 9) is authorized to call the functions for password management. Choose the standard screen Password Edit. The password list is shown on the display. The password list may contain a maximum of 50 passwords. The two-digit number at the beginning of a password entry indicates the password index. On the right of the password index is the field for the password. The password must be at least 3 but not more than 8 characters long; it may contain digits and the letters A F. On the right of the password you will see the assigned password level. During the initial call, only the superuser entry is included. If a password has not been entered for a specific password index, dashed fields are shown for the password and the password level.

Message Handling
Message types
Incidents and states in the control process are shown in message form on the OP display. A message consists of static text as a minimum. If required, variables are integrated into a message. The following types of message are displayed on the OP:
System messages
System messages are initiated by the OP. They are not configured. They provide information on operating states of the OP or maloperations and breakdowns in communication. Issued event messages and alarm messages are stored in separate message buffers on the OP. Messages contained in the buffers can be displayed or output to a connected printer.
7-1
Message Handling
7.1
Definition
The process states indicated by event messages and those indicated by alarm messages are defined during configuration. Messages on malfunctions referring to processes or states for example, Motor temperature too high or Valve will not open should be categorized as alarm messages. Messages that provide information on regular processes or states, such as Temperature reached or Motor running should be categorized as event messages. Apart from status messages, information on operation can also be configured as event or alarm messages. If, for example, a machine operator wants to start the bottling process but has forgotten to open the water intake valve on the mixer, a message such as Open water intake valve can prompt him to rectify the error.
Presentation
Event and alarm messages can be configured so that any of their text components flash to distinguish them from message text. Unacknowledged alarm messages flash permanently. Messages may contain static text and variable fields. The variable fields display, for example, current actual values of the PLC in numerical or symbolic form. In addition, the date and time can also be output in messages.
If there is a condition present in the current process for a message to be issued for example, a variable has been reached a bit is set by the PLC application program in the data area for event and alarm messages. The OP reads the data area after a configured polling time. In this way, a message is detected as having arrived. The bit is reset by the PLC when the condition for issuing the message no longer exists. The message is then regarded as having departed.
Alarm and event messages are written to alarm and event buffers, respectively, on the OP when they arrive. The following details are entered in the buffer in chronological order:
S times of incidents S arrivals and departures of incidents S acknowledgements of alarm messages S message numbers S values of variables at the time of arrival and departure.
7-2
Message Handling
The message buffer of the OP can store up to 256 events. Events are the:
Standby message
A sub-category of the event message is the standby message. The standby message is the event message number 0. It appears on the display when the OP is operating at the message level and event or alarm messages are not waiting. The standby message is stored in the firmware and contains the version and the device type:
OP15/A 2 x 40 char.
Figure 7-1
Depending on the configuration, the standby message can be represented by other text. It can contain the date and time but not variables.

Alarm messages have to be acknowledged on account of their priority. This can be done automatically by the PLC or by the operator pressing the Acknowledge key. The OP displays unacknowledged alarm messages in flashing mode. The LED (ACK) assigned to the Acknowledge key also flashes. If several alarm messages are waiting to be displayed, after one has been acknowledged the next one is shown on the display, which similarly has to be acknowledged. If no more alarm messages are waiting to be displayed, the OP reverts to the operating level from which it branched to the message level to display the alarm messages.
7-3
Message Handling
Acknowledgement groups
During configuration, you can combine several alarm messages to form an acknowledgement group. In this way you can acknowledge all the other alarm messages (consequential faults) in that acknowledgment group by acknowledging the first alarm message for example, the cause of the fault without all of them having to be output to the display. You can configure up to four acknowledgment groups. If alarm messages are not assigned to an acknowledgment group, only the one that happens to be on the display is acknowledged if more are waiting.
7.1.2
There is the possibility of inhibiting the display of frequently occurring alarm messages for the time being until the OP starts up as a result of a cold or warm start. Password level 8, at least, is required to inhibit the display.
Operation
To inhibit an alarm message, press the Acknowledge key and ESCAPE simultaneously. This message will not be displayed until the next time the OP starts up. Inhibited alarm messages are no longer inserted into the alarm buffer from the time of inhibition, either. They are stored in the alarm buffer only from the time they first occur until such time as the display is inhibited. Note The alarm message inhibit function should be used only during the commissioning phase of the OP.

Message Handling
7.2
System Messages
Definition
System messages indicate operating states within the OP. For example, they draw your attention to maloperations or a breakdown in communication. This message type has top display priority. If a relevant fault occurs on the OP, the active event message or alarm message is removed from the display and a system message is issued in its place.
System messages are classified as serious and non-serious system messages. A serious system message is based on an error that can be rectified only by an cold or warm restart of the OP. All other errors generate a non-serious system message for example, when printing has been initiated but a printer has not been connected to the OP. Display of a non-serious system message can be canceled by pressing ESCAPE to the extent that it is not automatically hidden after a short while. Display of a non-serious system message can also be canceled automatically when a specific, configured display time has expired. A list of possible system messages and their explanations will be found in the appendix.
Display of system messages (with the exception of internal errors 7xx) can be inhibited at the configuration stage. System messages whose display has been inhibited continue to be inserted into the system message buffer and thus can be viewed on the display later.
The system message buffer can store up to 100 messages. System messages are inserted into it with their message number and their arrival; their departure is not recorded. Some minor errors and operator errors are not logged in the system message buffer. Messages from the system message buffer are displayed in the same order as they arrived, i.e. first in first out, last in last out.

7.3
Displaying Messages
Display
Event and alarm messages are always output to the display at message level and are displayed according to display and message priorities.
Display priorities
System messages always have top priority in so far as display is concerned; unacknowledged alarm messages always have the second highest priority. Otherwise, messages are displayed in different sequences depending on whether separate or together output of event and alarm messages was configured.
Message priorities
Message priorities of 1 (low) to 4 (high) can be set within event and alarm messages in the configuration according to their importance. If several messages of the same display priority exist simultaneously, they are displayed according to their message priorities, those with the highest message priority being shown first and those with the lowest last.
If several messages having identical display and message priorities exist simultaneously, the most recent is displayed in all cases, for both event and alarm messages. Depending on the value preset during configuration, the oldest message or the most recent message is shown for alarm messages. You can use the standard screen to modify the setting for viewing the oldest (first) or most recent (last) alarm message when there are several of them waiting. To do this, choose System DispMsg and set the corresponding parameter.
7-6
Message Handling
7.3.1
Display Sequences
Event and alarm messages can be configured as single- or double-line messages and displayed either separately or together.
With this display sequence, only one message is shown on the display. Exception: On the OP15/C, four messages are displayed in the case of 8 x 40 representation.
If several messages are queuing, the messages are displayed in succession and output according to the following priorities: 1. System message, the most recent one, if there are several. 2. Unacknowledged alarm message. 3. Event message yet to depart. 4. Acknowledged alarm message yet to depart. 5. Standby message.
If there is no system message, the alarm and event messages having the highest priority are displayed simultaneously one on top of the other. For messages which extend beyond the limit of the display line, the full-length message text is repeated automatically across the display. Exception: On the OP15/C, two event messages and two alarm messages are displayed with the 8 x 40 representation.
If several messages are queuing in the case of combined output, the messages are output on double-line displays according to the following priorities: 1. System message, the most recent one, if there are several. 2. Unacknowledged alarm message; the second line displays simultaneously the most recent, highest-priority event message yet to depart. 3. Acknowledged alarm message yet to depart; the second line displays simultaneously the most recent highest-priority event message yet to depart. 4. Standby message.

Message Handling
7.3.2
If there are neither system messages nor unacknowledged alarm messages, you can scroll at message level through the messages that have not yet departed. To scroll through the messages, use the following arrow keys at message level: Next alarm message Previous alarm message Next event message Previous event message The message currently waiting will be displayed if you press ESCAPE or there is no operator input on the OP for one minute.
7.3.3
Displaying messages
Irrespective of the current contents of the event or alarm buffer, all configured event and alarm message text can be shown on the display. To do so, proceed as follows: Choose the standard screen Alarms Text (to display alarm messages) or Events Text (to display event messages). By using the UP and DOWN arrow keys, you can now scroll through the list of configured message text.

Deleting Messages
Event and alarm messages are stored automatically in the event and alarm buffers, respectively. Each of these buffers can contain as many as 256 events. To prevent a buffer overflowing, you should delete event and alarm messages from the buffer. Messages from the event and alarm buffers are deleted
7.5.1
Overview
S all (not individual) acknowledged and departed alarm messages S all (not individual) arrived and departed event messages.
To delete event and alarm messages, proceed as follows: Depending on the type of message you want to delete, choose one of two standard screens, either Alarms Delete (for alarm messages) or Events Delete (for event messages). Delete buffer: Press ENTER. Do not delete buffer: Press ESCAPE.
7.5.2

Message Handling
Deletion order
If the remaining buffer size is still not freed by this action, more messages are deleted, in the following order, until it is depleted:
S Acknowledged alarm messages yet to depart S Unacknowledged alarm messages that have already departed S Unacknowledged alarm messages yet to depart.
Forced printout If a log layout has been configured and a printer ready for operation is attached to the OP, forced printout of all deleted messages is enabled .
7.5.3
By default, an overflow warning is output to the display when the event buffer reaches the configured remaining buffer size. Output of the overflow warning can be enabled and disabled online by means of the standard screen Events Overflow. If the event buffer cannot accept any more messages, those which have already departed are the first to be deleted automatically until such time as the configured remaining buffer size is reached. If the remaining buffer size is not freed by this action, as many of the oldest event messages are deleted irrespective of priority and message status (arrived, departed) as are necessary to restore the configured remaining buffer size. If the remaining buffer size is still not available, as many of the oldest waiting messages are deleted as are necessary to restore the remaining buffer size.
Forced printout
If a log layout has been configured and a printer ready for operation is attached to the OP, forced printout of all the deleted messages is enabled.
7.5.4
Definition
If the system message buffer is completely full, the oldest message is deleted automatically from the buffer when another system message occurs. There is no overflow warning or forced printout of the deleted message, in the case of event and alarm messages.

Print time
Event and alarm messages can be printed upon arrival and departure (alarm messages upon acknowledgment, too) this was set when the message was configured. System messages are not logged directly. If direct message logging follows another print function, the header of the direct message log is re-printed.
If the printer is disabled, not ready or assigned to another print function, up to 16 messages are stored temporarily. Temporary storage of the messages for the message log is independent of the message buffer concerned.
Direct message printing can be enabled and disabled online by means of a standard screen: 1. Choose the standard screen System Printer. 2. A parameter list is displayed. 3. Move the cursor on the parameter list to Message Log. 4. By entering a symbolic value, set ON or OFF. 5. Confirm by pressing the ENTER key. 6. Exit from the standard screen by pressing the ESCAPE key.

Recipes

Recipes are combinations of variables for a certain purpose. The purpose of recipes is to transfer data together to the PLC. During configuration, the recipe is used to specify the data structure. This structure is then assigned with data in the OP. Since multiple assignment of the data structure is possible, we will now speak of data records. Data records are stored on the OP which saves memory space on the PLC.
Overview
Example of a recipe
Lets assume that orange nectar, orange drink and orange juice are to be produced using the same bottling station in a fruit juice plant. The mixing ratios are different for each drink but the ingredients are the same. The information required for production can be configured as the recipe Mixture.
MIXER M
Example: OP15
Figure 8-1

Recipes
Components of a recipe
A recipe consists of a series of recipe entries. Each entry contains a maximum of one input field (i.e., variable). Depending on the configuration, either direct or symbolic value input can be used in an input field. The recipe called Mixture could be set up from the following entries.
l l kg g
Input fields (variables)
In contrast to screens, several entries are displayed on the OP simultaneously for recipes.
On the OP, the variables allocated to the input fields are assigned with values and stored on the OP. Together, these values form one data record of the recipe. Several data records can be set up for one recipe. This permits a fruit juice plant to operate with different types of drinks, for example, by using a different data record for each type of drink.
All data records are stored on the OP. Only the data record which is active at the moment is stored on the PLC. This saves memory space in the PLC.
8-2
Recipes
A recipe is identified by a recipe number and a recipe title specified during configuration. A data record is identified by a data record number and a data record name assigned in the OP. The clear and unmistakable identification factor for a data record is the data record number and not the data record name. This means that, although several data records with the same name may exist, several data records with the same number cannot exist. If no name is assigned to a data record, it is assigned the name data record.
Standard screens with the following functions are available for data records.

Recipes
The OP offers a transfer screen for transferring data records from the OP to the PLC and back. Transfer a data record to the PLC when required by the PLC. The data record in the PLC can be overwritten by another data record stored on the OP. The active data record can also be transferred from the PLC to the OP and stored on the OP. Note Only one recipe data record at a time can be active on the PLC.
Transmission of data records between OP and PLC is synchronized to prevent uncontrolled overwriting.
Direct/indirect transfer
Transmission of data records between OP and PLC can be performed directly or indirectly. Direct transmission: The variables of the data record are written directly to the defined addresses of the PLC. Indirect transmission: The variables of the data record are stored in an intermediate storage location on the PLC (e.g., recipe mailbox on the SIMATIC S5). See User manual Communication for detailed information on the internal procedures.

STATUS VAR and FORCE VAR Functions with the OPs (S7/S5 Only)
With their PU functions STATUS VAR and FORCE VAR, the OPs provide means of displaying and modifying operand values supplied by a connected SIMATIC S5/S7 by means of standard screens. In online mode, this means that PLC operands can be edited directly on the OP without having to connect a programming unit to the PLC. STATUS VAR can be used only to display operands. FORCE VAR is used to display the operands and modify their variable values, and to transfer them back to the PLC. The specified operands remain in the static RAM and are still valid after a warm start of the OP.
Before calling the STATUS VAR and FORCE VAR functions, you must set the MPI address or PPI address of the connected SIMATIC S7. If only one PLC is connected, its address is address 2.
FORCE VAR
You call FORCE VAR by means of the standard screen ForceVAR. Following the call, the operand list is displayed. Depending on the line length of the display, an operand is displayed on either one or two lines. Figure 9-1 shows the display for the SIMATIC S5 on the OP15/A (2x40). Figure 9-2 shows the display for the SIMATIC S7 on the same device.

The PLC operands can be scrolled up or down. With activated SHIFT key, select the data type (e.g., DB, FW, IW, OW, Z, T) you wish to have displayed. Pressing ENTER automatically sets the corresponding data format in the format field. Shift Lock mode is de-activated at the same time. Use the cursor key to go to the numbers field. Enter in the numbers field the number of the operand you want to display or modify by means of the keypad and confirm it by pressing ENTER. Use the activated SHIFT key to modify the default data format (e.g., KH, KF, KM, KS, KY, KT, KC). Refer to tables 9-1 and 9-2 for the valid S5 operands, data formats and ranges of values.
Entering values
Within the lines and value fields, the cursor can be moved horizontally. A total of ten lines can be assigned. Confirm inputs by pressing the ENTER key. The values of the operands you select are displayed in the value field in the specified format.
If the cursor is located in the first field and if input has not been started and updating is not in progress, you can insert a new variable line in front of the current line using the Insert key and you can delete the current line with the Delete key. If the cursor is located in a value field (not KM) containing at least one character, use the Delete key to delete the character at the cursor location.
Updating values
When you have finished editing the operand list, the values on the PLC have to be updated. Unlike screens, this is done immediately after an individual value has been entered. Not until you press the Enter key again after entering the final value is updating of all the new values explicitly initiated. During updating, a flashing asterisk, *, is visible in the top right corner of the display. If the asterisk does not flash, this means that the OP did not succeed in establishing a logical link to the PLC. Inputs cannot be made while updating is in progress. Updating can be canceled by pressing ESCAPE.

In this chapter
This chapter describes supplementary functions relating to system settings which can be executed by means of standard screens.
Messages, screens and information text can be displayed in several languages. Up to three of the languages listed below can be loaded simultaneously on the same OP and presented to the operator for selection on line:
Procedure
To choose another language, proceed as follows: 1. Choose the standard screen System Language. 2. Select the language you require by means of a symbolic input. The selection list contains only the languages which have been loaded on the OP. 3. The OP performs a cold restart and loads all elements of language-dependent text in the new language.
10-1
The parameters set as default parameters for the OP interfaces during configuration can be modified by means of standard screens. To do this, proceed as follows: 1. Depending on the OP you are using, choose one of the standard screens marked System IF.. 2. Scroll through the parameter list on the display using the UP and DOWN arrow keys to the parameter you require. Some of the parameters displayed cannot be modified. 3. Choose the value for the parameter by using a symbolic value. 4. Exit from the standard screen for example, by pressing the ESCAPE key.
The default settings configured for printouts on the connected printer can be modified by means of a standard screen. In this instance, you can set the following:
S characters per line (parameter values: 20, 40 or 80) S lines per page (parameter values: 60 to 72) S message log (ON, OFF).
With message printing enabled (ON), every alarm message and event message can be printed in online mode as they arrive and depart (alarm messages also when they are acknowledged). OFF disables printing. To set the parameters for your printer, proceed as follows: 1. Choose the standard screen System Printer. 2. Scroll through the parameter list on the display using the UP and DOWN arrow keys. 3. Choose the value for the parameter at the cursor location by using a symbolic input. 4. Exit from the standard screen for example, by pressing the ESCAPE key.
To define whether the oldest or the most recent alarm messages (for first/last message refer to section 7.3) is displayed when several are waiting to be displayed, proceed as follows: 1. Choose the standard screen System DispMsg. 2. Select the corresponding parameter, i.e. either First or Last. 3. Exit from the standard screen for example, by pressing the ESCAPE key.
10-2
You can adjust the current date and time on the OP for example, to allow for summer or winter time. Any change you make will affect all messages and screens for which a date or time variable has been defined. The display format for date and time is defined in your configuration and cannot be changed by means of the menu system on the OP. 1. Choose the standard screen System Dat/Time. Use the LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys to move the cursor from the date field to the clock field and back again. To move the LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys within the input field for the date or time, activate Shift Lock mode beforehand so that the LED is on. Change the day of the week using a symbolic input and the date and time of day by means a numeric input. 2. Confirm your input by pressing the ENTER key. 3. Exit from the standard screen for example, by pressing the ESCAPE key.
The OP does not have a hardware clock. Since the date and time are generated by software, this information has to be updated every time the OP starts up.
On the OP5 and OP15, you can adjust the contrast of the LCD. The display contrast can be adjusted by means of
LCD display contrast can also be adjusted by means of a standard screen. To do so, proceed as follows : 1. Choose the standard screen System Languages. 2. Move the cursor to Contrast. 3. Select the contrast value you require by means of symbolic input (1 for minimum contrast, 16 for maximum contrast).
10-3
10.4 Modes
A standard screen can be used to set the OP modes Online, Offline, Download and Loop-Through.
Online
In Online mode, there is a logical link between the OP and the PLC, or the OP attempts to establish a link. The OP cannot be switched to online mode by a PLC job.
Offline
In Offline mode, a logical link does not exist between the OP and the PLC. The OP does not even attempt to establish a link.

In Download mode, data is transferred from the PU/PC to the OP. In this particular instance, a logical link does not exist between the PLC and the OP. The OP cannot be operated while data is being transferred.
While the OP is being commissioned, troubleshooting or optimization of the PLC program is often necessary. For this purpose, the PU or PC can be connected to the second interface of the OP in Loop-Through mode. This way it is possible to communicate between PC/PU and the PLC through the OP. For the restrictions which have to be taken into account in Loop-Through mode refer to section 15.5.
Jobs from the PLC to the OP can be initiated only when the OP is working in normal Online mode or switched to Loop-Through mode. To set OP modes, proceed as follows: 1. Choose the standard screen System OpMode. 2. Set the mode you require by means of a symbolic input. 3. Terminate the function call. You will find further information on OP modes in Chapter 16 of this manual.

Different action is normally required or allowed in different operating situations. To support changing requirements during process control, you can configure the following measures, which provide the operator with situation-specific purposeful help:
S screen-dependent soft keys, S global function keys and S user-defined screen hierarchies.
You can assign function calls to the function keys on the OP5 and the OP15. We distinguish in this instance between local and global assignment. Global means that the assignment applies to the entire configuration. Local means that the assignment applies to one screen entry only. This makes it possible for the operator to initiate functions as and when required by the situation. When the assignment of function keys may vary from screen entry to screen entry, the keys are referred to as soft keys. The following keys can be assigned as soft keys on the different devices:
OP5
Keys F2 to F5 of the function keyboard may be configured as soft keys. Function keys F1 and F6 may be assigned globally during configuration.
OP15
Keys F1 to F8 beneath the display may be configured as soft keys. Function keys K1 to K16 may be assigned globally during configuration. While configuring soft keys, you must make sure that function calls which are required to be permanently available, i.e. also during screen editing, are not assigned to keys which you intended to be soft keys.
11-1
You can assign the following functions to function keys and soft keys:
S branch to message level, S select screen, S initiate a print job. S display directory, S modify parameters in online mode.
A password level may be assigned to a function key or a soft key. This means that you can make functions, such as Modify parameters in online mode, available only to authorized persons.
If a function can be called in a given situation by means of a specific function key, the LED assigned to the function key can be turned on by the PLC. Operator guidance, for instance, can be implemented in this manner.
A bit can be configured in a variable for every soft key. This insures that a bit is set in the PLC when a soft key is pressed. In this instance, the OP always transfers the whole variable to the PLC instead of the individual bits and overwrites the information it contains. When the key is released or upon a change of display which modifies softkey assignment, the bit is reset.
The screen hierarchy can be adapted to system-specific requirements and be modified either in part or in whole. Screens can be removed or added. Screens can be linked together in random order. The design, sequence of the link, inclusion in the screen directory and the relevant cross-jump destinations are defined during configuration with ProTool/Lite.
You branch between the different screens by means of soft keys and configured cross-jump destinations. Branching from entries of different screens to one and the same screen is possible (figure 11-1). Cross-jumps are not restricted to screen level, but can branch to the message level too.
Another feature that is configured is the picture you want to have displayed on the OP as your start screen.

An overview is presented below, with reference to an example, of the design of a screen hierarchy. Detailed information on configuration will be found in the ProTool/Lite Users Guide.
Example
The OP is used to operate and monitor a system for producing and bottling different fruit juices. The system consists basically of a mixing unit and a bottling machine. Mixing unit The ingredients for the fruit juices are contained in three tanks. Depending on the juice that you wish to manufacture, ingredients are mixed in certain ratios. Bottling machine After it has been mixed, the fruit juice flows into the bottling tank after a valve has been opened and then bottled in the correct quantities. The bottles are conveyed on a belt. Before being filled, they are checked for breakages After they have been filled, the bottles are capped, labeled and transferred to pallets. The configured basic screen could look for example, on the OP5 display like the one shown in figure 11-2. It consists of static text only.
<<
Figure 11-2 Start Screen of the System (in This Instance for the OP15/C, 4x20)
The screen segment on the display can be moved horizontally with the soft keys below the symbol << and >>. Pressing the soft key beneath the Mix entry allows you to view the entry shown in figure 11-3. It similarly consists only of static text which refers to other screens (Tank2, Tank3 and Mixer).
11-3
If you press the Tank2 soft key, the entry displayed in figure 11-4 appears. This entry contains static text and two output fields (Tank Contents and Set Temperature) as well as an input field (Valve Position) The position of the tank valve can be set in the input field by means of a symbolic value input for example, OPEN or CLOSED).
11-4
Schedulers
12
Depending on the configuration, you can specify socalled schedulers for the OP15. A scheduler is a regularly recurring point in time (i.e., hourly, daily, weekly, annually) at which a certain function is to be executed. Up to 48 schedulers and their corresponding functions can be configured. A scheduler is contained in a screen entry where it can be entered, changed or deactivated when the screen is displayed. When a scheduler time is reached, the configured bit is set in the interface area of the PLC. See User Guide Communication for detailed information on the interface area of the PLC.
12-1
Schedulers
Functions
S Print alarm message buffer (chronologically or together) S Print event message buffer (chronologically or together) S Select screen S Print screen S Print data record
Changing schedulers The schedulers have already been preset via configuration. A scheduler can be changed or deactivated via input fields in a screen entry. The scheduler is activated as long as a time is displayed in the input field. The LED of the DELETE key goes on when a scheduler is activated. Activated means that the configured function will be executed when the scheduler time is reached. If the input field contains ???, the scheduler is deactivated. Proceed as follows to set a scheduler time. 1. Select input field. You can use the cursor keys to switch between scheduler type and day of the week field, and date field and time field. 2. Enter scheduler time. Date and time are entered via the system keyboard. Activate the SHIFTLOCK combination to control the cursor within the input field for date or time. The day of the week is set via a symbolic entry. 3. Confirm entry with ENTER. The scheduler is now activated.
Deactivating schedulers
You can delete the scheduler time in a screen entry by pressing the DELETE key. The scheduler is then deactivated (i.e., the configured function will not be executed).
12-2
13
The OP and the application program communicate with each other by alternately reading from and writing to the data areas in the memory of the PLC. Thus the PLC and the OP can make each other execute different actions by evaluating data areas.
PLC jobs
PLC jobs are functions that are initiated on the OP for example, selecting screens, printing screens, transferring the date and time from the OP to the PLC. Jobs are stored with a job number and parameters on the PLC. The PLC, for example, can call a screen on the OP to draw the operators attention to a particular condition or to the fact that inputs are required. You will find a complete list of all the PLC jobs with their parameters and a description of all the data user areas that have to be configured on the PLC in the Communication Users Manual.
LED control
The LEDs on the keys of the OP can be driven from within the PLC. This means it is possible to signal to the operator by means of a lit key LED that it is advisable to press a specific key in a certain situation. For LED control, it is necessary to create an LED image on the PLC. In the configuration, two bits are assigned to every LED in the LED image area. These two bits can be used to im plement four different LED states: Off, Permanently On, Low- Speed Flashing, High-Speed Flashing.
The OP stores information about the object type called in the screen number area of the PLC. Thus it is possible for information about the current display contents of the OP to be transferred to the application program on the PLC and, from there, for certain reactions to be initiated for example, calling another screen.
With pressing a function key, it can be used to set a bit on the PLC, where it is evaluated by the application program. For this, you must have created the necessary data area on the PLC for the keyboard image and have specified the appropriate area pointer in the configuration for assigning the key to a bit.
13-1
A bit is permanently assigned to every key on the system key board apart from the arrow keys and the directory key in the data area for system keyboard bits. The bit remains set for as long as the corresponding key is pressed. The bit is reset when you release the key. Owing to the evaluation of this data area, the operators attention can be drawn to the wrong operation of a key for example, by means of an error message.
Transfer of date and time can be initiated from the OP by means of a PLC job in order to synchronize the OP and PLC.
By creating a suitable data area, it is possible for alarm messages to be acknowledged by the PLC instead of on the OP.
If the PLC is required to announce that an alarm message has been acknowledged, this can be done following creation of a suitable data area.

Operator Panels OP5 and OP15 are suitable for fitting into control cabinets and consoles. For this, the front panel must be provided with a mounting cutout (refer to Chapter 17). The front panel must not be thicker than 16 mm. No other drilled holes are required for mounting. You will find mounting depth details in Chapter 17. Make sure at the location where you plan to install the OP that there is a clearance of at least 50 mm beneath its housing to accommodate protruding connectors. Caution To prevent the OP from overheating in operation,
S the ventilation slits in the device housing must remain free after mounting.
Note The IP65 degree of protection on the front panel can be insured only when the gasket on the front panel of the OP fits properly.
Installing the OP
Insert the OP from the front into the prepared cutout. Attach the OP5 firmly to the front panel from behind with the three screw type hooks enclosed with the device; four screw type hooks are enclosed with the OP15 for this purpose. Figure 14-1 shows the positions provided for this purpose at the rear of the devices.

Electrical connections
S to the power supply, S to the configuring computer (PC or programming unit), S to the PLC.
The electrical connection to the configuration computer is required to download the configuration to the OP. The basis for interference-free operation is interference-proof hardware design of the PLC in accordance with EMC guidelines and the use of interference-proof cables. Caution Assemblies may be changed only by suitably qualified persons who must be completely familiar with all the warning notices and steps of this manual.
15-1
Electrical Installation
Shielding
An automation system must be shielded to prevent interference. When a system is poorly grounded, low-frequency and high-frequency interference signals can penetrate the internal bus of the PLC and cause malfunctions. Interference signals can also be caused when relays or contactors switch (very rapid changes in current or voltage; high-frequency interference signals) or when two parts of a system have different grounding potentials (lowfrequency signals).
Use only shielded cables for all signal connections. Ground the shields of cables on two sides for
Do not install signal lines parallel to high-voltage lines. Use a separate cable duct located at least 50 cm from high-voltage lines.
The basis of interference-free operation is the hardware setup of the PLC. Any interference signals caused by the process must be kept away from the hardware setup to the extent possible.
Cabinet setup
Install devices which could bring in interference signals from the outside at the bottom of the cabinet. Place the grounding rail directly at the cabinet entrance so that cables which could be carrying interference signals can be applied directly to grounding potential. Apply all shielded lines with the shield here. Apply only the outer shield of double-shielded signal lines here. Install long signal lines along the cabinet walls. Setting up the cabinet in accordance with EMC guidelines is an important factor in the reduction of interference. All grounding connections in the cabinet must have large cable cross sections and be applied over a large surface. Insulate analog devices in the switching cabinet and ground them to a single point in the cabinet using copper tape.
15-2
Electrical Installation
Always use equivalent metals for the materials. Never use aluminum (danger of oxidation). Connect all doors and metal parts (sides, back and cover) of the cabinet at least three times to the cabinet frame (short, paint-free, large-area connections). Note If your system generates high electrostatic voltages (for example, textile machines and special construction machines), run the grounding lines of the machine parts with interference signals to a separate operating ground isolated from the central grounding point of the cabinet (surface grounding with housing construction, reinforcement).
Power supply
Connect the power supply to the terminal block on the bottom of the housing and wire up the authorization input. Figure 15-1 shows the assignment of the 3-pin terminal block for the OP5/A2, figure 15-2 shows the assignment of the 4-pin terminal block for the OP5/A1 and all OP15 versions.

If PU status functions are activated (message on PU: Status processing in progress for example, for a block status, Force Var),
S the OP can no longer be operated, S communication between the OP and the PLC is stopped. There is therefore little sense in evaluating error number 115 of the standard FB on the PLC in this particular instance. Upon termination of status functions by means of the ESC key on the PU, OP functions are resumed. If Apply is pressed once only with Force VAR after a value has been entered, the value you entered is transferred to the PLC, and the status function of the PU is still not active. This value (for example, a message bit or an actual value) can still be read by the looped-through OP and processed (for example, display of the associated message or the actual value). Not until Apply is pressed a second time is the PU status function activated.

Initial startup
When your OP arrives, it contains firmware but not a configuration. This software, which is essential for operating the OP, has to be loaded for initial startup. To do this, proceed as follows: 1. Connect interface IF1 of the OP by means of a suitable standard cable to the configuration computer (PC or programming unit). 2. Switch on the power supply of the OP. Since you have still not loaded a configuration, the OP automatically switches to Download mode with the message Ready for Transfer and waits for the data to be downloaded from the PC or PU. You cannot operate the OP in this mode. 3. Start the download operation to the OP on the PC or PU. The OPchecks the link to the PC or PU. If a link is not available or if it not functioning properly, the OP issues a corresponding error message. If the link is in order, downloading of the configuration from the PC or PU is initiated to the OP. Note Refer to the ProTool/Lite Configuration Manual for a detailed account of the procedure.
Once the configuration has been successfully downloaded, the OP runs up again and displays the standby message.
Restarting
If you wish to replace a configuration on the OP with another one, proceed as follows: 1. Connect interface IF1 of the OP by means of a suitable standard cable to the configuration computer (PC or programming unit). 2. Switch on the power supply of the OP. 3. Call the standard screen System ! OPMode ! Download to switch to Download mode on the OP. Before you do so, enter the password for the password level concerned, if required. If this standard screen is not available in your configuration, press while switching on the power supply the following three keys

This key combination deletes the configuration from its memory. The OP then switches to Download mode with the message Ready for Transfer. 4. Start the download operation to the OP on the PC or PU. The OP checks the link to the PC or PU. If a link is not available or if it is not functioning properly, the OP issues a corresponding error message. If the link is in order, downloading of the configuration from the PC or PU is initiated to the OP. In doing so, the present configuration on the OP is overwritten by the new one. Once the configuration has been successfully downloaded, the OP runs up again and displays the standby message.

Monitoring functions
Without the operator normally being aware of it, the OP continually executes the following functions, which contribute to operating reliability of both the Operator Panel and the link to the PLC: Voltage monitoring The supply voltage applied to the device is permanently monitored. As soon as it falls below 14 V, the processor saves the data structure in the RAM and flash memory. Battery monitoring The voltage of the built-in backup battery is checked at intervals of ten minutes. If it drops below 2.5 V, system message $200 Change battery is displayed.
Hardware test
Apart from a brief initial start test, which is performed for every cold start of the OP, a comprehensive hardware test withtest functions for all the important components of the device can be initiated by operator input. Hardware test displays are in German, irrespective of the language you set. Initiation of hardware test The hardware test is not initiated at screen level but upon the power supply being switched on. To initiate the hardware test, press three arrow keys
simultaneously.
From the hardware test menu, you can select individual components for testing. Selection is made by using the UP and DOWN arrow keys, and testing is initiated by pressing ENTER. Display contrast is set at the beginning of the hardware test to an average value and can be adjusted by means of the LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys. End of test Unless specified to the contrary, the system returns automatically to the menu after every individual test. When you select END TEST, a hardware reset is initiated and a cold start is executed.

OP maintenance
The Operator Panels are designed for low-maintenance operation. Maintenance includes
S regular cleaning of the keyboard membrane and the display with a damp S replacing the backup battery.
The procedure for changing the backup battery is described below.
Backup battery
The backup battery of the OP5 and the OP15 insures that, when the power supply is turned off,
S operating data are retained in the static RAM of the OP and S the hardware clock continues to run (OP15 only).
Lifetime The OP uses a 3.6 V/approx. 1.5 Ah lithium battery. It is installed in the device ex works and has a typical life of about four years under normal operating conditions. Battery condition An exhausted battery is indicated by a system message during routine operation of the OP. The backup battery should be changed as quickly as possible after the message is displayed. Sources of supply You can obtain new batteries from the Siemens spare parts service. They are made ready for installation and include a cable and plug connectors.
Safety notices
When you handle lithium batteries, keep in mind the following advice:

Maintenance
Warning
S Humidity should not be allowed to condense on batteries. S Should transportation become necessary, the forwarding agent concerned
must comply with the Dangerous Chemicals Ordinance (obligatory labeling).
Replacing battery
S Battery replacement may be performed only by qualified persons. S Before replacing a battery, study the ESD guidelines in the appendices to
this manual.
Note Make sure the voltage supply is switched on when you replace a battery to prevent a loss of data.
To replace a battery, proceed as follows: 1. Remove the battery cover and take the battery from its holding device. 2. Pull off the connector on the battery lead. 3. Insert the new battery in reverse order. Caution Spent lithium batteries should be treated as special waste. Pack them separately in leakproof plastic bags for disposal.

Message number
System messages on the OP can be placed in different categories. Information on the category to which a system message belongs is contained in the message number:
Message number
The message category gives you a rough idea of the cause of a system message. A few important system messages are shown below together with their causes and the action that has to be taken to remedy the errors. Self-explanatory system messages are not included. Note Messages are displayed in English until configuration data have been downloaded to the OP.
Proceed as follows for all system messages that relate to internal errors: a) Switch off the OP, put the PLC in STOP mode and restart the OP and the PLC. b) Put the OP in Download mode during start-up (refer to section 16.1), download the configuration again and restart the OP and the PLC. c) If the error continues to occur, please contact the nearest Siemens branch office.

ESD Guidelines
In this chapter
This chapter describes the most important precautions which must be taken to avoid damage toe the electrostatically sensitive devices in the OP3.
E.1
Nearly all SIMATIC assemblies incorporate highly integrated MOS devices or components. For technological reasons, these electronic components are very sensitive to overvoltages and consequently therefore to electrostatic discharge. These devices are known internationally as: ESD (Electrostatic Sensitive Devices) The German abbreviation for such devices is: EGB (Elektrostatisch Gefhrdete Bauelemente Baugruppen) The following symbol on plates on cabinets, mounting racks or packages draws attention to the use of electrostatic sensitive devices and thus to the contact sensitivity of the assemblies concerned:
ESDs may be destroyed by voltages and energies well below the perception threshold of persons. Voltages of this kind occur as soon as a device or an assembly is touched by a person who is not electrostatically discharged. Devices exposed to such overvoltages cannot immediately be detected as defective in the majority of cases, since faulty behavior may occur only after a long period of operation.
E-1
ESD Guidelines
E.2
S When handling electrostatic sensitive devices, make sure persons, workplaces and packages are properly grounded.
E.3
E.4
E-2
ESD Guidelines
E.5
Conductive packing
As a matter of policy, assemblies and devices should be stored and shipped only in conductive packing for example, metallized plastic boxes, tin cans. Should packing not be conductive, assemblies must be conductively wrapped before they are packed. You can use, for example, conductive foam rubber, ESD bags, domestic aluminum foil and paper (under no circumstances should you use plastic bags or foils).
With assemblies containing fitted batteries, make sure that the conductive packing does not come into contact with or short-circuit battery connections; if necessary, cover battery connections beforehand with insulating tape or insulating material.
