2. List of Changes for BMI Library SV4.1


§ FF Signal Error: Handling of FF instruments error for AIS and PIDCtrl.
§ AIS IO Status: Information in the faceplate in a new Control Tab. This was
implemented to show the status for maintenance people when using S800 or FF
devices.

§ PIDCtrl IOStatus feature enables now the possibility to show the status of MV,
ActuatorPos and OUTP signals. A new Tab Control was created in order to have
this information.

§ PIDCtrl Last Mode feature enables the possibility to select what mode can be
selected after a Balance position mode. The new parameter to set that is called
“AfterBalMode” together with IO.In.SetBal can be used with the same functionality
of Clamp Mode in AC450.

§ PIDCtrl FF State Machine has now the possibility to set Cascade Mode position
automatically when requested from the faceplate or from the FF Function Block.
§ PIDCtrl Indications will be now possible to select what should be shown. MV,
OutP or SP and Status Mode for the graphic display.

§ PID Direct Entry. Enabling the property EnableDirectEntry in the PIDCtrl graphic
element during edit mode of your graphic display, allows the operator to define
the setpoint directly in the graphic element without the need to open the faceplate.

§ New VLVNO1 Object. This object was created in order to cover the functionality
of a Normally Open valve in a plant.
§ SamePosDelay parameter was created to cover the possible error found in some
valves that has the actuator in the same position for a specific time. This time now
can be set for VLV1 and VLVNO1 object.
§ BMI Energy Circuit Breaker has now the possibility to make a configuration with
2 CBs and 2 Isolators. New types were created. The code is improved as well to
avoid the execution of some part of the code when the element (CBx or Isolatorx)
is not used.
§ IOStatus4 has now the possibility to chose between switch off or not when this
fault occurs. Thru BMIConst.IOS4StopMotor the user can select “True” if he wants
to force a stop in the motor when a communication fault is detected (IOStatus4 =
1). Or selecting “False” he will be able to see the information in the faceplate but
no stop force will be implemented. The default value is True.

§ Warning indication for all consumer objects (MOT1, MOT1_VVVF, MOT2,


MOTP, GrpCycleCtrl, CircuitBreaker) when we have the IO.In.Warning activated.

§ PCC Light – Basic Functions


o Built the new PCC bus (Priority Command Connection) for the library. This new feature
enables the consumer objects to have child members. With this, all alarms can be
represented in the consumer objects faceplates. As an example, when we have an high
limit alarm in a AIS or drift switch failure, we will be able to see in the related motor
faceplate the color, message indication and the link to that objects that are causing the
failure. This information is also sent to all parent members of that motor (eg.: Group). In
the next versions, PCC will be implemented in a such way to have all interlocks being
used thru it whereas most of the interlock logic will be not necessary.

o IMPORTANT: For fast PCC indication on the FPL the OPC Server Update Rate for
text must be changed from 10000ms to 1000ms !!
o Connection of Unlimited number of AIS and DIS to a Consumer Object or Group.
o Automatic Indication of First Fault Link on the Consumer Object and Group to the DIS or
AIS that caused an Interlock stop the Consumer Object
Link from AIS, AIC / DIS, DIC Faceplate to the Consumer Tag
Disabling of AIS / DIS alarming in case of:
§ Std_Type: 0 Motor is not running, NC Valve is closed, NO Valve is Open, for PCC
connected to Group if Group is not started.
§ Std_Type: 1 Same as Std_Type 0 but always alarm on all Objects if group is
started and consumer preselected.
o In case object is standby preselected alarm priority is automatically reduced from Failure
to Warning.
o Function Block PCC_Connect_2 allows to connect two consumers or groups to one AIS /
DIS. In.

o Function Block PCC_Connect allows to connect up to 32 consumers or groups to one


AIS/DIS. PCC_Connect_2 was kept just for upgrade compatibility reasons, but can be
easily replace by this new Function Block.

§ NLS (National Language Support): Support now for all events and alarm messages in the
alarm list. Also support for interlock and alarm messages over the faceplate. This configuration
can be done over the path below.

§ New Active X
The new Active X allows to customize all colors and label texts.
The group Active X has a lot of new indications such as:
- Preselection has changed, restart required (light blue arrow up)
- Start interlock (small arrow up in actual interlock color)

- Stop interlock (small arrow down in actual interlock color)


- Thick frame showing the summary status of all connected consumers and their
interlocks. If a motor got an AIS PCC H1 limit Warning the AIS shows yellow H,
the motor shows a yellow Tag and the group shows a yellow frame. This is all without
additional programming !!!
§ New Process Panel Integration
The Process Panel 800 is now integrated as a part of the BMI Library
A new PanelLink has been created and added to the Structured Data Type (MOT1Data,
MOT2Data, etc.).

The communication between a process panel and a control module now can be done thru the
Access Variables. Just enter the reference from the consumer object to the process panel
variable like this:

The communication from and to a process panel is now done with one datastream.

3.2 Basic IO and Loop Objects


§ New Process Limit (Plim) implemented for AIS, AIC and PIDCtrl (MV Signal). This additional
limit was added and can have a Alarm Treatment for Events or No events.
§ Filtered Analog Input: Now it is possible to have the filtered signal thru AIS.
§ New Log Configuration aspect for historical back-up for the AIS and AIC element.

§ Rate of Change feature for the AIS and AIC element. Now it is possible to see the Rate of
change in % of Total Range of the SignalLowPass. Alarms for High rate of change can be set.

§ New 6 alarm delay limits This makes possible to have 6 alarm delays for the AIS and AIC
object. This setting can be done in individually in each AIS object or can be selected as default
for all AIS objects over the BMIConstAndVar, EnIndividualAlarmDelays in the AIS subgroup. For
upgrades, set this constant to true before the first download in order to have copied the actual
alarm delay in all L1,L2,H1 and H2 alarm delays.

§ New DIS and DIC faceplate provides the possibility to change forced values thru the block tab
now. Before the buttons to force were available in the reduced faceplate.

§ DIS and DIC Warning time can be used to generate a warning before the effective alarm of the
DIS occurs.
§ DIS and DIC Ready Delay is a time to hold the alarm position to prevent noisy signals to clear
and active the alarm very often.

These parameters can be set thru the DIS/DIC faceplate over parameters tab. Notice
that now it is possible to enter these parameters in time format.

This is the only one object in the Minerals Library which is possible to set parameters in time
format at the moment. This functionality will be extended to all objects with time parameters in the
next versions.

§ Improvement of AIS and DIS execution time. Even with new functionalities it had been
possible to have a good result in the execution time for the IO Elements for version 5.0

Note: These values have been measured before PCC Light (first beta release) was added. New
measurements will be done later. AddSuffix function was used instead of "+" to concatenate strings
for following SIL compliance.
§ PIDCtrl now generates signal error for OUTP. Status indication for all signals connected (i.e.:
MV, OUTP and ActuatorPos).
§ Project Constant UncertainAsGood
Over AIS constants in BMIConstAndVar there is the constant called UncertainAsGood where can
be used to ignore Uncertain quality common present in Foundation Fieldbus or Profibus PA
devices.
§ Enabling / disabling limits instead of blocking for AIS, AIC and PIDCtrl. In the new library the
concept for blocking the limits was changed. Now, the limits can be enabled \ disabled from the
faceplate instead of blocked. This was done because usually this setting is valid for the whole
project in a specific signal and we should not see block indication in these objects. As an
example, usually for a current signal is only needed the H1 and H2 limits and L1 and L2 should
always be disabled. This setting must be done now in the faceplate. When this is done, alarms
and limits calculations are not done (i.e.: L1.Value and L2.value will always be false).

3.3 Consumer Objects

§ FB1Mode is now implemented for MOT1_VVVF and MOT2. In the last version this parameter
was only for MOT1. Using this parameter is now possible to have pulsed switches connected to
FB1. This includes as well an indication of the Actual Pulse Period in the Faceplate. When set
1, means expected pulses of 0.1s period, when set 90, pulses of 9s period are expected.
§ Point of Control changes
The Test Mode is Removed and the Local mode has the same functionality as the test mode.
Be aware that in every existing Control Module the mapping is not modified : the former EnTest
Parameter will disappear and the former EnLoc will act for the Local Mode.
§ Real Value Parameter
The real value parameter for MC (Motor Current) and ActualPosition have been changed from
real to RealIO in order to present the correct unit and ranges in the faceplate.
§ Project Constant EnFPLStopInAllModes
This new project constant allows to configure the FPL to disable the stop button in case the
consumer object are not in Central (Cen) Point of Control.
§ Faceplate Start Button for Consumers
The faceplate start button is now disabled when the consumer object is not in Central or not
ready for start.
§ New Graphic Elements thru new aspects
Arrows, Belts, Air Slides and other graphics are now available as Graphic Elements of the
Various Objects. They automatically turn green if the Object is running. They can be found and
linked to the process displays thru the aspects of each object.
§ Additional info in the maintenance tab for all the motors. Now it is possible to see the
nominal current and the actual pulse time in case of FB1Mode > 0. This is valid for MOT1,
MOT1VVVF and MOT2.

Be aware that the Latest pulse times are in seconds units

§ Link to the group thru faceplate available now thru the Group tab.

§ Selected and running direction highlighted in the faceplate for MOT2. Running direction for
MOT2 and MOTP

§ IA Mode for MOT1VVVF is now working in the same way we have for MOT1 and MOT2.
Means that the motor will start/stop depending on the IA interlock. This was different in the past,
once Auto mode was associated to the possibility to set setpoints from the application. This
concept now was changed to Setpoint Internal or Setpoint external.

3.4 Group Objects


§ Group Status Display for the Group and for the GroupCycleController.

Thru this new function it is possible to access all the members that belong to the group
§ New Auto Mode and Unconditional Start for the Group The Auto Mode is now stopping the
group with a NormalStop with Stopdelay instead of Qstop as before.

Using Unconditional Start the operator or maintenance user is enabled to start the group
disregarding the Ready For Start Condition for the group. As default, it has not assigned to operator
rights and can be seen only over expanded faceplate.
With new Auto Mode is possible to start/stop the group in sequence using the IA
interlock in the same way we have for the consumer objects.

§ Two additional start interlocks and two additional stop interlocks. The blocks are provided
now individually for each interlock.

§ Possibility for 2000 Group GrpStopStep this feature now enables the possibility to include
motor (consumers) over 2001, 2002, etc GrpStopStep in which we have a different behavior of
consumer stoppage. Once the consumer is preselected as 200x StopStep, it will stop first when
changed the preselection. This is a usefull feature for solving some specific cases where the
running drive should be stopped first when changing the active preselection, eg.: Pump which
capacity tubulation is critical, mix conveyors where we should never have mixed material, etc.
§ New StandBy Preselection for the group indicates which is the StandBy preselected drives in
case of active preselection has some fault or interlock. This is only valid if the standby drives
are selected as StandBy drive thru IO.In.PreselStdBy. Has not automatic switch over in case of
related member has been stopped for interlocks or alarms. This feature will be provided in the
next releases.
§ New GrpCycleCtrl had its code rewritten in order to be compatible with the new philosophy of
group starts not using arrays anymore. No cold start is needed anymore after a change in the
program members. This was not possible before version 5.
Due to the high number of strings compares the GrpCycleCtrl is not SIL1-2 compliant.
The New GrpCycleCtrl present now the same feature as the Group :
- Show Member Function
- Link to FirstDriveNotRfs, Link to connected Group
- GrpCycleCtrlStatusDisplay which shows all the sub members
- Simulation for connected Consumers

§ New Step Info Tab for the Group Cycle Controller


The new TAB, Step Info, provides the possibility to see in a close detail:
- which are the steps that are running
- what is the left time for the step
- What is the configured time for the step
- What is the elapsed time for the active cycle

- What is the total time for the active cycle


- In a very good graphical way. All this information
- What is the next and previous step number
- What is the active step and which function is being executed (starting / overlapping)

§ New indication for stopping members for Group Cycle Controller in the graphic element. This
was done in the faceplate and in the graphic element aspect. Before was not possible to see if
the Group Cycle Controller was stopping the members, and by mistake, the operator could re-
start the Group Cycle Controller in a different program without having the stopped all the
members of the latest program.

4. List of Changes for Minerals Library 5.0/2

4.1 BMI Defaults Configuration moved to new Location


The “BMI Common” General Properties Aspect and the BMI Defaults Configuration
Display are no longer found on the BMI Standard Library Object itself. They were moved
to “ABB System/Process Graphics/BMI_GraphiXs_Customization 1.0-0” in Object Type
Structure.

4.2 Maintenance Submode


There is a new Maintenance Submode in Local Mode. It is now possible, using Project
Constants, to define if Auto / PrevDrive Interlocks resp. IB Interlocks lead to a stop in
Local Mode or not, while these are always disabled in Maintenance Submode. This allows
having the functionality of the “Test” Mode that was present in Version 4 of the Library. It
is furthermore possible to disable the IC Interlock for the Maintenance Submode via a
Project Constant.

In a similar way, the PCCUploader creates “XML PCC Content” aspects, which contain
the Signals belonging to a certain Consumer or Group. A simple PCCViewer Aspect then
shows this Information in a table. As the Basic Object Control Modules already link to the
Consumers connected, the PCC Bus connections are now fully transparent to the
Operator.

4.9 AlarmFdBckOpn / IO.Out.Run Behaviour changed


IO.Out.Run Signal is now only true if Order is sent. In earlier Versions, IO.Out.Run also
was true in case of a Contactor Off Failure (Contactor welded) or Forced Run (FdBckRun
goes true while Motor is stopped).

4.10 FB1 / FB2 Feedback Open Alarm


There are new Alarms in case FB1 / FB2 Feedback is true while the Motor is not running,
or stays true longer than FBTime after the Motor stopped. These are enabled by setting
FBxMode to -1, which already implies that this Alarm can not be enabled if FB1 is a pulse
(FB1Mode > 0).

4.11 AlarmFdBckSubTxt / AlarmFBxSubTxt


An additional Text is generated if a FdBck Alarm or a FB1/FB2 Alarm is issued, which is
added as a Suffix to the Alarm Message. It takes one of four Values:
On Signal is not true after Order goes true + Timeout
Off Signal is not false after Order goes false + Timeout
Trip Signal goes false while Order is true
Frc Signal goes true while Order is false

· Migration of graphic elements MOT1FBTxt, MOT1_VVVFFBTxt and MOT2FBTxt


could cause an error in the Migration Tool. This problem is fixed.
· AOCBar / AOSBar corrected low limit indicator position.
· Graphic element VLV1 and VLV1NO did not indicate the state “open” correctly when
using certain indication types such as A00_Rectangle or A01_Motor. This problem is
fixed.
· Graphic element PIDCtrl, MOT1_VVVFCtrl and MOTPCtrl now indicates the signal
errors for every analog value independently.
· AOCBar / AOSBar corrected drag handle appearance.
· Correction of shape quality in Cone 3D and Silo3D
· Text, the PG2 Text behaviors for Logical colors been corrected

6.2.2 Control Module error correction summary


· MOTP Setpoint Range in E1 Mode was limited to the setpoint limits minus 4 times the
Deadband, because of an Error introduced in the previous version.
· MOTP was still in Auto/E1 mode after a trip instead of switching to Man.
· PulseCounter and ReportingCounter Integration Count Mode changed to use
getActualIntervalTime Function for measuring the correct Time between Samples.
· MOT2 with “EnAuto=true” was set to auto during Group start and then stopped again
by Group if not both preselections active. Corrected to work properly with Group start
if only one preselection active.
· CircuitBreaker parameter LocalControl: Initial value changed from “false” to
cBMIEnergy.CB.LocalControl_Inverted.
· CircuitBreaker AlarmDiscrepancy: ClosedStored/OpenStored status was reset by an
open/close command although an interlock was active, which in Simulation mode also
resulted in loss of PosCls/PosOpn feedback even though the breaker was not
switched.
· CircuitBreaker: corrected calculation of SumIntTr so blocked interlocks are ignored
· When a MNSiS MOTx was stopped by Auto mode, there was a chance the Availability
returned 2 cycles after the loss of FdBckRun, thus generating a “Not Ready or in Test”
Alarm. This prevented the drive from being restarted again automatically. Added
bypass for a duration of 3 cycles.
· MNSiS MOTx FdBckTime was by default = 2s. As the communication has some delay
and downloads cause a short loss of communication, the FdBckTime was increased
to default=4s. This helps preventing unnecessary “Not Ready or in Test” or “Contactor
Fault On/Off” alarms during CBM download. This time can be adjusted via the new
project constant cBMI.MNSiS_MBTCP.FdBckTime.

To match this setting on the hardware side, the MControl parameter “CF Timeout”
should be set to 5000ms (old setting 3000ms).
· MNSiS MOTx showed “MCtrl Comm Error” Warning if in LOC, LCB Stop active and
MStart racked out. Corrected to show an M3 alarm.

6.2.3 VB6 Graphics error correction summary


PIDCtrl, the switching between Mode Text indication from Controller (OPC) and static text
(NLS) did not work correctly. Now the option ModeIndType = 0 (Static text) shows NLS
based text as below:
· NLSModeE1 = NLSID_Button_E1 (“E1”)
· NLSModeE1Auto = NLSID_Button_E1A (“E1A”)
· NLSModeE1Man = NLSID_Button_E1M (“E1M”)
· NLSModeE2 = NLSID_Button_E2 (“E2”)
· NLSModeE2Auto = NLSID_Button_E2A (“E2A”)
· NLSModeE2Man = NLSID_Button_E2M (“E2M”)
· NLSModeE3 = NLSID_Button_E3 (“E3”)

6.3 Discontinued and changed Features and Functions

6.3.1 2nd CB within the Circuit Breaker Control Module


The second circuit breaker CB2 within the Circuit Breaker Control Module has been
removed completely. Accordingly all obsolete presentation options have also been
removed (Type 7, 8, 201, 204, 205 and 207).

6.3.2 Indication Type Handling of Circuit Breaker


The selected indication type of the CB in the process display is now directly setting the
correct appearance of the faceplate; it is no longer necessary to enter the matching type
in the control module. The control module parameter “CBType” is obsolete but kept for
compatibility reasons. As of now the parameters “CBEnable”, “Isol1Enable” and
“Isol2Enable” are used to enable the specific breaker and allow interaction from the
faceplate.
The following components of the structured variable “CircuitBreakerIntAct” have been
removed:
· EnCB bool retain 0 Indication of CB Enabled
· EnIsol1 bool retain 0 Indication of Isol1 Enabled
· EnIsol2 bool retain 0 Indication of Isol2 Enabled
· EnIsol1ESW bool retain 0 Indication of ESW for Isolator 1 Enabled
· EnIsol2ESW bool retain 0 Indication of ESW for Isolator 2 Enabled

8. List of Changes for 5.1/2a


Minerals Library 5.1/2a is a maintenance release correcting some issues that caused
problems in various projects

8.1 New Features and Functions

8.1.1 New Open Extension Libraries for VB Graphic Element and Faceplate Elements
This was introduced as several customers used modified versions of the VB Graphic
Elements. The PG2 Elements will remain closed. Projects required changes in PG2 have
two options:
1. request a change in the library
2. create a copy of the PG2 graphic element in an own extension library

8.1.2 New Open Extension Libraries for Property Override Aspects


Property Attribute Override aspects are now stored in open extensions libraries so
projects are able to change it in the Object Type

8.1.3 New 2 and 4 screen workplace templates for PG2

8.1.4 ActiveX ConsumerExt.ocx – Property HTMLOnObject


The ConsumerData control of the ConsumerExt.ocx used to present status information
from Electrical and Device Integration has got a new property: HTMLOnObject
If this is set to true the HTML Aspect holding the configuration data can be on the same
object as the Graphic Element with the ConsumerData user control. Before only
configurations having the HTML Aspect in the wrapper has been possible.

8.2 Corrected Errors

8.2.1 DOC Value Reset during Control Builder Download


In case the DOC was in Manual the value was reset during application download with
control builder.

8.2.2 New VB Date and time user control for VB workplaces


The AxtiveX showing Date, Time and User in the VB workplace header increased the risk
of having texts indication problems in VB. For details on the correction see:

9. List of Changes for 5.1/3

9.1 New Features and Functions

9.1.1 BMI GraphiXs


· Dynamic coloring is now supported by Process Symbol SingleLine and CircuitSymbol.
More detailed information in [16] Minerals Library GraphiXs User Guide (3BHS
294896) and [8] Minerals Library Power Distribution Monitoring Objects (3BHS
253000).

9.1.2 Parameterized PreSelections


· Supported Control Modules: MOTx, VLVx, GrpCycleCtrl and PIDCtrl
· The PreSelection assignment is set as a String parameter on the individual Control
Module.

9.1.3 Duty Stand-by Switch Over


· Supported Control Modules: MOTx, VLVx and GrpCycleCtrl
· Each PreSelection can be selected as StandBy if it is assigned to a StdByPreselGrp.
· If a consumer, which is assigned to the active PreSelection, trips, a change over to the
StandBy selected PreSelection in the same StdByPreselGrp will occur within 2 Normal
task cycles. If no StandBy is selected no change over will occur.
· Each consumer features the TripOverride parameter. If True a trip of this consumer
will not initiate a switch over.
· The change over mechanism also works during a Group start: the Group will
momentarily go in Hold, the PreSelection change over will occur and the Group will
start again from the lowest not active step.
· Each PreSelection features an ExtTrip input which also initiates a change over to the
StandBy PreSelection in the same StdByPreselGrp.
· Existing but never used variables concerning Standby have been removed

9.1.4 Additional Value Treatment


Value treatment has been extended to a 4th level
o New Project constants for Severity, Text and AckRule
o New logical color
o Changed code in BMIGraphiXs and Control Modules

9.2 Corrected Errors

9.2.1 Control Module error correction summary


· PIDCtrl: Parameters MV_PHiLim, MV_BlkPHiLim, MV_PLoLim, MV_BlkPLoLim are
now correctly handled at initial download.
· REF542Plus: Corrected calculation factor of ReactiveEnergy
· PFCCtrl: Changed initial value for ModeTxt and StatusTxt to new project constants in
Energy library (earlier taken from Energy MNGT library)
· VVVFSerial: corrected condition for FundamentalIntlk as it did not work properly.
As soon as the drive was running the FundamentalIntlk was active (=false)
· MOT1, MOT1_VVVF, VLVx, CircuitBreaker and GrpCycleCtrl: A continuous activation
of IO.In.SeqStart (or the equivalent for other types) was forcing the module to Seq
mode.
· MOTx, VLVx and GrpCycleCtrl: corrected condition for displaying RemainTimeforStep
in Auto mode.
· MOT2, MOTP: corrected PCC Status2 writing for StartStepPreselYMem
· MOTP_LCB: corrected Loc/Rem switching for LcbLoc/LcbRem input
· PCC_Connect: corrected writing of DriveEnWrite variables
· StepOneGroup, StepTwoGroup: Deleted PreSelStdby parameter as it was anyway
not used
· MNSiS MOTx: changed alarm suppressing: FdBckRunOffDelayed1st/2nd/3rd are set
in the Fast task to make sure even short Order pulses are registered
· MNSiS MOT1: LcbType parameter removed and hardcoded Type 4 on MOT1
instance
· MNSiS MOTP: SerialLink.M1 (PTC) was not used for MOTP because normally
actuators don’t have PTC. In case this input was used for other purposes which
should stop the motor it did not work properly. This was fixed as MOTP now also
features M3 alarms.

12. List of Changes for 5.1/4

12.1 New Features and Functions

12.1.1 CBM Diagrams


BMIStandard and BMIEnergy Blocks have been updated to be used in the new Diagram
Editor as supplied with 800xA SV 5.1 Feature Pack 4.

While the Library can still be used together with custom Data Types and Single Control
Modules, the new Diagram Editor is strongly recommended to be used in all new Projects.

12.1.2 Additional PCC Interlock Direction configuration possibilities


§ IntlkDir supports a new “Fast” configuration Option (in combination e.g.
“DirXYFast”) for the DIS Control Module, that allows to stop a Consumer via the
“Fast” Task (usually 50 ms)
§ IntlkDir supports a new “NoAck” configuration Option (in combination, e.g.
“DirXYNoAck”) which interlocks only as long as the condition is active (i.e. with
“Value” instead of “Normal”), to allow operation even in case the alarm is not
acknowledged.

§ IntlkDir supports new «FBXY», «FBX», «FBY» configuration Options to connect a


signal as dynamic feedback (similar to FB1 in MOT1). IO.Out.RunXY or MOTP
PosX/Y will only become active if the condition is fulfilled. (e.g. additional final limit
switches for MOTP, speed-, press-, flow-switch with advantage of pre warning,
alarm and ready delay). This Option only makes sense together with
IntlkStartInhibitTime > 0s.

12.1.3 New MOT2_VVVF Control Module


MOT2_VVVF is a new Control Module that combines the MOT2 features with the
possibility to control a Setpoint for e.g. a Variable Speed Drive.

12.1.4 New DriveGroup Control Module


Technological group that can handle auxiliary equipment and main (variable speed) drives
of complex equipment like large belt conveyor systems and other machines with several
auxiliaries and main drives as one “drive”. It can be seen as a Group with two “sub”
groups for the Auxiliary Drives and the Main Drive(s) respectively.
· Auxiliaries will start before main drive(s) – possibility to start the Auxiliaries already at
the start of the Main Group (without StartStep)
· Main Drives can stop without auxiliaries – configurable Delay Time for stopping the
auxiliaries and possibility to not delay the Main Group Stop with the auxiliaries by
stopping independent of the Main Group
· Aux and main drives support (separate) pre-selection and stand-by pre-selection
· Set-point and limits control from DriveGroup to drives, for MOT1_VVVF or
MOT2_VVVF

12.1.5 New PCC and GCC_Com Control Modules


New Control Modules to extend the PCC and GCC Bus between different Diagrams,
Applications and Controllers.
· GCC_Com_M
o Converts from the GrpDrvBus (GCC) to Communication Variable, connected
to a GROUP and communicating with a GCC_Com_S Control Module in
another Diagram.
o Communication error and parameterized error action
· GCC_Com_S
o Converts from a Communication Variable to the GrpDrvBus (GCC) Variable,
connected to Consumer Objects and communicating with a GCC_Com_M
Control Module in another Diagram.
· PCC_Com_Drive
o Converts from a Communication Variable to PCC, connected to a Consumer
Object and communicating with a PCC_Com_Signal Control Module in
another Diagram.
o Communication error and parameterized error action
· PCC_Com_Signal
o Converts from PCC to a Communication Variable, connected to Signals (Basic
Objects) and communicating with a PCC_Com_Drive Control Module in
another Diagram.

12.1.6 Speed Supervision for MOT1_VVVF and MOT2_VVVF

· 1 alarm as FB3, used for speed supervision after startup or stopping and configurable
as alarm/warning via FB3Mode Parameter
· 2 parameter as FB3RunSpeedLim and FB3RunSpeedTime, available in CM and FPL
to configure condition for speed supervision during starting and after.
· FB3RunSpeedLim must be fulfilled in FB3RunSpeedTime to release IO.Out.Run
(similar to FB1/2).
· 2 parameter as FB3OffSpeedLim and FB3OffSpeedTime, available in CM and FPL to
configure condition for speed supervision after stopping.
· Configurable feedback to group with respect to off speed supervision

12.1.7 New Mode 5 “Smart Reset” for PulseCount / ReportingCount


The Counters do have an additional Counter Mode 5 that is similar to the existing Mode 4
(“Accumulative Counter”), but does support up/down counting. See the Manual Reporting
Objects for details.

12.1.8 New Workplace with Tab-Navigation


New BMI Operator Workplaces are provided which make use of Tab-Navigation and have
a combined Display / Application Bar

12.1.9 Search Tool


The Search Tool now supports to search objects in multiple systems.
Additional pre-defined Search Tool Filters for NLS Alarm Texts have been provided.

12.1.10 Write Properties for the Faceplate


Additional check for Write access granted.
If Value in target is equal to the value to write then nothing is written to the target.
The WriteSequence for the properties is “Async”.
This additional function takes care for entries in the “Operator Message List” as well as
problems during opening an faceplate if the Aspect system is in Read Only mode.

12.1.13 VLV1 and VLVNO1 new FBErrorModes


Additional Configuration for the Limit Switch Error behaviour is possible via the following
Bits in FBErrorMode Parameter that can be combined:
16#4 Keep OrdOpn in Limit Switch Error
16#8 Keep OrdCls in Limit Switch Error
16#10 Keep RFS with FBOpn Error
16#20 Keep RFS with FBCls Error
16#40 Simulate Opn Position with OrdOpn after FBTime
16#80 Simulate Cls Position with OrdCls after FBTime
The existing Mode FBErrorMode=2 is similar to 16#4 for VLV1, resp. 16#8 for VLVNO1,
FBErrorMode=1 is similar to 16#F4 resp. 16#F8, with the difference that the new Simulate
Option does include the FBTime, which is important if Parameter CutOrd = true.

12.1.14 REF542PlusCircuitBreaker
The Energy Counter now uses the new CountMode 5 to correctly count negative Energy
(Current in other direction), used for e.g. Buscoupler Protection Relays.
All AIC Blocks (Voltage, Current and Power) are now correctly indicating Signal Error in
case the Modbus Connection is lost.

12.1.15 New Control Module GroupStep


GroupStep is located in BMIStandard Library and replaces the StepOneGroup Function
Block for Diagram logic (see Discontinued Functions).

12.1.16 New Control Module PCC_Intlk


New Single Boolean State configurable PCC Interlock with the following Features:
· Contains the PCC Parent and Child Object, can be used to Group Signals via PCC
and forward as a single condition to another Parent.
· Interlock Blocking, Delay and Ready Delay
· Faceplate and PCC Viewer

12.1.17 New SPIntPar Parameter for MOTx_VVVF, DriveGroup


The Setpoint and Setpoint Limits Variables (Interaction Parameters, Values shown and
written from FPL) are moved to a new Parameter SPIntPar defined on the Control
Modules and possible to connect into the Application. This makes it possible to “distribute”
Setpoint Values from Master-Slave Drives combination between the different Faceplates
for correct indication on the Operator Station.
For connecting SPIntPar of different Motors together (Master – Slave type of Motor
Control), there must be a “move” Block used in between, which requires the declaration of
an additional Variable for SPIntPar for each Control Module, and the new
ExternalSPIntPar Parameter on the Slave Blocks needs to be set to “true”. This will also
disable the Setpoint Input on the Slaves.

12.1.18 New AutoMode Parameter for Consumers (MOT1/2,_VVVF,VLVx)


A new Parameter “AutoMode” is added for MOT1, MOT1_VVVF, MOT2, MOT2_VVVF,
VLV1 and VLVNO1 to specify the behaviour in Auto Mode (EnAuto = true).
· 1: the IA_Process PCC Interlock and IO.In.IA will be disabled during Manual Mode
(Consumer will not stop)
· 8: Wait for the next Auto_Start on PCC before starting the Consumer when
switching to Auto-Mode. Note that this Option does only make sense with PCC
Interlocks and must not be used with Auto Mode started via IO.In.IA.

12.1.19 Alarm Lists use Event Time instead of Active Time


All “BMI” Alarm List configurations are changed to show Event Time instead of Active
Time.

12.1.20 New Tab-based BMI Workplace


A new Workplace is provided together with the Library, that uses the tab-based navigation
and a combined Application and Display Bar. This Workplace replaces all older
Workplaces in the standard installation.

12.2 Corrected Errors

12.2.1 GroupStep (and StepOneGroup / StepTwoGroup)


When DrivePCC was connected to a Consumer that didn’t have any Error Indication, the
RFS state was not forwarded to the Group even in case it was false, this has been
corrected.

12.2.2 Consumer Objects


The IndTr from PCC is not forwarded to the Object’s Indication anymore in case the only
active PCC Interlocks are of Dir..Start and the Consumer is in running State (Interlock not
active), similar to the already existing exception for RFS Interlocks
Starting a Consumer with EnAuto set now checks for POC=Seq as well, so the Group
(with SetSeqMode=2) will correctly wait in the Active Step until the POC is changed
Add ALP4_SubTxt to the Tagname for the GroupDriveBus PCC AEInd same as for other
Indication Treatments
IO.In.Warning is now included in the AlarmSumIndTr, this means the Warning state will
now be correctly shown in the Graphic Display and transferred to the Group.

12.2.3 Alarm Color over PCC not correctly transferred for SigErr
The AlarmColor was not correctly shown on Consumers in case the BasicObject had a
SignalError or AlarmTr was set to 4. This has been corrected.

12.2.4 VLV1 and VLVNO1


The Alarm Color in Cls Position (Opn for VLVNO1) was in some cases reduced to purple,
even if cBMI.StdType was set to 0. This has been corrected.

12.2.5 MOT1_VVVF Inc/Dec if EnableFBFieldMode = false


If the Project Constant cBMI.MOT1_VVVF.EnableFBFieldMode was set to false, it was
not possible to change the Speed Setpoint via LcbInc / LcbDec anymore in case the FB1
or FB2 Signal was false.

12.2.6 GROUP
IOOut.Rfs now requires IOIn.IC to be true. The Start Button in FPL is now disabled if any
Interlock is active.

12.2.7 „Block“ indication forwarding over PCC


The Block indication is now correctly forwarded from the Basic Objects tot he Consumer
via PCC Connection. The Drive will indicate Block if any of it’s connected Signals are
Blocked.

12.2.8 Group Status Viewer


The Start and Stop Steps for MOTP GrpAutoStep and VLV1 GrpOpnStep are now
correctly shown in GroupStatusViewer.

12.2.9 ConsumerExt01
When opening the Extended Status Viewer (ConsumerExt01) it sometimes didn’t update
the OPC Data, showing “Table empty” until any Data change or User interaction
happened. This has been corrected.

12.2.10 Energy CB Aspect

12.2.11 Minerals License Service for 64Bit Windows


The Minerals License Service now works with 64 Bit Windows Installations (Patch for 5.1-
3a)

12.2.12 PCCUploader / GroupUploader


The Upload process now also deletes all XML Config Aspects that should be empty, e.g. if
a Consumer does not have any PCC Signals connected.
Corrected Definition for PCC_Threshold_AND3 to upload as Child - this corrects the PCC
Viewer Indication in cases were other PCC Blocks (e.g. PCC_Threshold_AND3) are
connected as Condition to PCC_Threshold_AND3.

12.3 Discontinued Functions

12.3.1 StepOneGroup / StepTwoGroup


In Control Builder Diagrams, the two Function Blocks StepOneGroup and StepTwoGroup
are not supported anymore. They will be kept for existing Projects based on Single
Control Modules. Applications written with Diagrams should always use the new
“GroupStep” Control Module which is a direct Replacement for the StepOneGroup. Please
see the Group Objects Manual on how to replace a StepTwoGroup with two “GroupStep”
Control Modules.

13.1.1 IO Status Indication Color for Consumer Objects and DIS


Via new Project Constants cBMI.MOT.IOS_useSigErrTr resp. cBMI.VLV.IOS_useSigErrTr
it is possible to change the Indication of the IO Status Error on the Consumer Objects to
cBMI.AE.SigErrTr instead of the AlarmTr configured. The IOStatus will in this case
indicate with Yellow Color and with higher Priority than other Alarms and Interlocks.
For the DIS, it is now as well possible to indicate the SigError in the Process Graphics
(e.g. on DISTxt) by setting the Project Constant cBMI.DIS.ShowSigErrIndTr.

13.1.2 New EnExtAlarm Parameter for AIC


With the EnExtAlarm Parameter set to cBMI.AIC.EnExtAlarm.AllLevels, the Limit
Calculation for the AIC can be disabled and the Values of the Alarms (e.g. IO.H1.Value for
the High 1 Alarm Limit) need to be written from the glue logic instead to indicate on the
Graphics and generate the Alarm. This can be useful for Sub-Control Systems were the
Values and Alarms are evaluated in another PLC and transmitted to the DCS. In this case,
the Alarm Limits and Block (Limit Enable) are set automatically when an Alarm is coming
up. To disable this behaviour the Parameter “EnExtLimits” can be set to true, e.g. if the
Limit Value is fixed or transmitted from the other System as well.

13.1.3 Consumer Object keeps in Auto Mode during Interlock or Trip


It is now possible via Parameter AutoMode to configure the Consumer Object to keep in
Auto Mode if any Trip or Interlock occurs. This can make sense for Equipment that shall
by default stay in Auto Mode and is independent of any Group Sequence. The Interface to
the Group is not changed however, so a Group will still indicate Hold or wait on the Start
Step for a tripped or Interlocked Consumer independent if the Consumer is still in Auto
Mode or not.

13.1.4 CircuitBreaker Graphic ANSI Mode and Intermediate/Fault Position


The CircuitBreaker Graphic Core has been extended to show Intermediate and Fault
Positions for Disconnectors and Circuit Breaker if two Limit Switches are connected. Also
it can now be switched to show indications resembling the ANSI Standard Breaker and
Disconnector Symbols. The latter can be applied for the Graphic Elements in BMIEnergy
Library using the new General Property “CB Properties.EnableANSI” on BMI NG
Common.

13.1.5 new IO.Out.FdBckOffErr Output for MOTx


The MOT1, MOT2, MOT1_VVVF and MOT2_VVVF Control Modules do have a new
FdBckOffErr Output that indicates an active Contactor Off Alarm. This signal could be
used to switch off the next upstream Breaker (e.g. MCC Incomer) via glue logic.

13.1.6 Jog LcbTypes for DriveGroup


LcbTypes 9,10 and 11 have been added for the Drivegroup, with function similar to the
LcbTypes present on Consumer Objects already.

13.1.7 Events for Consumer Objects now on IO.Out.Run change


In previous Versions, the State Event was delayed until FdBckRun went to false. This has
been changed to Event already.on IO.Out.Ord going false. It is now as well possible to
configure a “starting” event on the MOTx Objects via Project Constant.

13.1.8 New DriveGroup AuxStopCtrl and InterlockCtrl Options


The DriveGroup can now be configured to stop only the Main Drives on Group Stop. The
Auxiliaries will keep running and can only be stopped from the Faceplate or LCB.
A new Parameter InterlockCtrl can be used to change the default behaviour to do a
Sequence Stop of the DriveGroup and instead apply a Sequence Interlock on all
Consumer Objects in MainGrpDrvCon. This can be used to connect Equipment Interlocks
like Belt Drift Switches to the DriveGroup instead of all the MainDrives to apply the correct
POC and LocalStartOverride Action while keeping the immediate Stop Action on a Trip.

13.1.9 Behaviour of DriveGroup with no Members


A DriveGroup with no selected Members now keeps the running Status until the Actual
Step from the superior Group is started, in order to continue with the next start step, only
then it will switch to GrpOff.

13.1.10 ProcessPanel support for DriveGroup


DriveGroup now supports the ProcessPanel Interface on the MainGroupDrvCon Variable
– with the same Interface as for the Group Control Module.

13.2 Corrected Errors

13.2.1 GraphiXs Aspect Link


On Display callup, the AspectLinkCore sometimes indicated QualityBad even if the Link
itself was working. This has been corrected.

13.2.2 Group Start Delay for consecutive Steps


If a Group Member with multiple Steps (e.g. PIDCtrl) had its Steps executed immediately
after each other, the Step Delay was only executed for the first Step. This means e.g. for a
PIDCtrl with Step 1 switching to Auto and Step 2 switching to Manual, the Block switched
to Manual immediately after reaching Auto Mode, independent of the configured Delay for
Step 2, if there were no steps of other Consumers executed in between.

13.2.3 Extended Info Links on PG2 Faceplates with NLS


If 800xA Language Packs were installed, some of the Aspect Links in the Faceplate
Extended Info Area were not working.because the related Aspect Names were translated.
The Links are now corrected by using NLS References defining the Aspect Names.

13.2.4 AIS/DIS Faceplate PCC Local Start Override


The Interlock Local Start Override Indication has been changed to only show yellow
Background if the Interlocks are currently overridden.

13.2.5 Small Corrections


Corrected IndTr for IO.In.Warning on MOTx CMs in cBMI.StdType = 1
PulseCounter Integrator Mode did not correctly sum the CountValue if the Tasktime
configured was not a divisor of 1000 ms.
GCC_Com_M was still keeping the Slave Diagrams Rfs State on the Last transmitted
Value in case of Communication Error even with ComErrCtrl set to 0.
GCC_Com_M is now checking for all Pulses on GrpDrvBus (e.g. Hold and AlarmAck) to
be transferred to the Slave Diagram by holding the Pulse until the PackedCount is
Start Warning for DriveGroup alarms is now only activated for auxiliary equipment if Main
Drives are not to be started (Aux Start only).
The Local Start Inhibit and Local Start Override Options for Signals connected to the
DriveGroup Block have been fixed.

13.2.6 MOT1VVVFCtrl VB Graphic Element


The Element has been adapted to work with the new SPIntPar Parameter for the
MOT1_VVVF introduced in 5.1/4 – to keep the ActiveX Graphics basic functionality during
an Upgrade.

13.3 Discontinued Functions


VB Faceplates (for BMIStandard/Energy Libs) have been removed from the Distribution,
because they were not supported/activated anymore since 5.1/2a Version and there are
some errors in some of the Faceplates introduced by Library Changes.
Please also refer to the Upgrade Hints for how to disable the VB Graphic Elements for
Upgrades.

14. List of Changes for 5.1/5

14.1 Licensing
The Minerals Library Release 5.1/5 now requires a License for “Minerals Control Libraries
6.0” or higher. Earlier Versions were delivered with a “Minerals Control Libraries 5.0”
License. For upgrades please contact [email protected] to get a new
License Version.

14.2 Yard and Port Objects


New Template Library for Reclaimer / Stacker with Graphic Elements and Collision
Avoidance Checking Logic. Separate Release as .afw File – please see the new Manual
“20 Minerals Library Yard and Port Objects” for a Description of the new Objects.

14.3 PCC Interlocks supported for GROUP


The GROUP Control Module now also supports PCC Interlocks similar to the Consumer
Objects.
The cBMI.GROUP.DisablePCCInterlocks Project Constant can be used to disable this
Feature for Upgrade Projects.

14.4 New SubGroup Control Module


A new SubGroup Control Module is included that has the same functionality as the Group
but can also be a Member of a superior “Master” Group. see the Group Objects Manual
for a complete Description.

14.5 New GroupConnect Blocks


New GroupConnect_2, GroupConnect_4 and GroupConnect_8 Control Modules that
allow to connect a Consumer to multiple Groups. These work similar to GroupSteps but
only require a single Connection to the controlled Consumer Object via the Group
Parameter. See the Group Objects Manual for a complete Description.

14.6 New RecipeControl Control Module


There is a new RecipeCtrl Control Module for controlling multiple Weighfeeder Setpoints
with a Total Feed Setpoint for e.g. a Mill Feed Control.
This Module replaces the obsolete WFC Block from the BMI_WeighfeederLib, with more
Features and full PG2 Graphics support. See the Dosing Objects Manual for a complete
Description.

14.7 New PCC_Connect_6 Block


A new Library “BMIAdvancedPCC” is included with Minerals Library and contains one new
Control Module “PCC_Connect_6” which is a replacement for the PCC_Connect Function
Block that also supports the forwarding of the Fast Interlock from the DIS.

14.8 New BMI Standards Configuration via Resource Backup Tool


The Tool allows to backup and restore the NLS Texts, Colors and BMI Common Settings.
Usage is described in
In Addition the Tool replaces the BMI Standards Configuration Display that was used in
earlier Versions to set the different Standards. These Standard Settings are now provided
in the C:\ABB Industrial IT Data\Minerals Library\ Folder in different Subfolders that can be

selected and loaded via the Resource Backup Tool. Details are described in the Minerals
Library Overview Manual.

14.9 New Support Control Modules


Some Control Modules that were found to be useful for Glue Logic in Control Builder
Diagrams have been added in the BMISupport Library.
SelAny has the same functionality as Sel but uses AnyType and therefore can be used
with all DataTypes. The User has to take care that only
SelRealIO is similar to SelAny but specially made for RealIO Variables to copy the Forced
Boolean in reverse Direction from the Out back to the In Ports. If Forced is true then the
Value is copied in reverse as well.
InjectRealIO is used to set the Parameters on a RealIO Connection in one Single Block.
This is sometimes needed to initialize the Parameters if the RealIO is not connected to a
Hardware Channel.

14.10 Improved Group Bus RFS and Step Feedback


The Local / Maintenance Steps are now shown in the same priority as the not RFS Steps,
and Consumers in Central Mode are now also indicated on the Group if SetSeqMode is
set to 2.
The cBMI.DriveGroup.NotRfsIfDriveInLocal Option is removed. This Option was only
working before is set together with the corresponding Option for the Group
cBMI.Group.NotRfsIfDriveInLocal, and it is now merged completely. In case the
Parameter SetSeqMode is set to 2 (not changing the POC from the Group) then the
Drives in Central are now indicated as Not Ready Reason for the Group as well. Together
with this, the Out Parameters “FirstStepInMaint” and “FirstStepInLoc” for the Group,
GrpCycleCtrl and DriveGroup are removed.
In case a Step hangs (motor has alarm or interlock active while the Start Pulse is sent
from the Group), the Group now immediately goes to Hold and triggers a Timeout Alarm
instead of waiting on the Step until the Sequence Timeout is reached. The Alarm
Message does include the Stepnumber on which the Group was active at the time of the
Error. The new Project Constant cBMI.Group.AlrOnTagActStepEmpty can be set to false
to disable this Feature and get the old behavior for upgrade Projects.

14.11 New Status_Override Parameters on PCC_Intlk


The PCC_Intlk Block now has additional Inputs IO.In.Status_Override,
IO.In.Status_WarningXEn, IO.In.Status_FailureXEn, IO.In.Status_WarningYEn and
IO.In.Status_FailureYEn to allow overwriting the PCC Status Information forwarded from
the Parent Object via PCC_Intlk to the Signals.
The Parameter StatusStarted has been replaced with 2 new Parameters Status_StartedX,
Status_StartedY to allow to define the Status direction dependent. In case
IO.In.Status_Override is set true, these Parameters will now also be used to overwrite the
Status to the Signals.

14.12 New LCB Type 12


A new Type 12 is introduced for an LCB with Remote/Local Selector Switch where the
Motor will indicate “Not Ready for Start” if the POC differs between the LCB and the
Faceplate. It is similar to the existing JOG Type 10 but also requires the LcbRem Signal
and Stops the Motor in case LcbLoc and LcbRem are both false (Selector “Off” Position).

14.13 Changed SigErr behavior for AIS/AIC and DIS


On an upcoming Signal Error, the AIS/AIC and DIS with ErrCtrl = true now still force the
Signal to ErrVal but it is now visible to the Operator that the Block was caused by the
Signal Error and will reset on “Good” Status of the Signal again. While the Signal Error is
activated, “ErrorControl” is now indicated in the Faceplate instead of “Block Input” and the
Block Button is still unchecked. The Supervisor (depending on Access Permission
Configuration) can then still click the Block Button to set the state to “Block Input” instead
and with this make sure that the Hardware Value is not applied again as soon as the
Signal is back to “Good” Status . A new Variable “ForcedBySigErr” was introduced for this
Feature.

14.14 Small Corrections & Additions

14.14.1 Start Inhibit Indication on DIS and AIS


An active StartInhibit (IntlkStartInhibit Parameter set to a Time > 0s with stopped PCC
Parent) is now indicated more clearly in the Faceplate with a yellow Label “Start Inhibit
Active” replacing the earlier “IO Alarm blocked” (DIS) or “Block” (AIS) Label. In case the
StartInhibit is not active (PCC Parent running) but a Limit is disabled via IO.AlarmEn /
IO.LimEn then the Label Text is still the same as before so it is now possible to
differentiate between these two conditions.

14.14.2 RemainTimeForStep forwarding on DriveGroup


The Remaining Time for the next Step is now forwarded by the DriveGroup to the superior
Group. This improves feedback on the Master Group as now it is possible to see the
currently active Time Delay until the next Step even for Steps programmed in Subgroups.

14.14.3 Trend Aspects on AIC/AIS


The Trend Aspects are now included in the Open Aspect Extension Library, so it is
possible to change the Trend Templates in the Object Type Structure already for a
specific System/Project.

14.14.4 New cBMI.AIC.PropagateSigErrToPCC


Added a new Project Constant to suppress the Signal Error forwarding to PCC similar to
the Option available for AIS already.

14.14.5 AIS StatusTr, New StatusTr Parameter on AIC


The StatusTr Parameter on AIS now also suppresses the Forced Event on forcing the
actual Value additionally to the Limits. The same function has been added to the AIC with
a new Parameter StatusTr.

14.14.6 PCC Interlock on DIS/DIC with ValTr = -1 and WarnValTr = -1


The Timers, AlarmCondition and PCC Interlocks are now executed on the DIS and DIC
Control Modules even when ValTr and WarnValTr Parameters are set smaller than 0 (no
Alarm or Event). This can be used in the special case where an Interlock shall not
generate an Event but still apply via PCC.

14.14.7 Disable FastInterlock on DIS with IO.AlarmEn


Setting IO.AlarmEn to false will now also disable the FastInterlock on the DIS. The
IO.AlarmEn itself is only evaluated in the Normal Task and used to disable all Alarm and
Interlock of the DIS, but it was not supported for the FastInterlock in earlier Releases.

14.14.8 SeqPosX / Y on MOTP in AutoMode


A pulse on IO.In.SeqPosX or IO.In.SeqPosY does now set the MOTP to Manual Mode. In
earlier Versions it was required to first switch to Manual Mode in order to start the MOTP
to X or Y Position from the Application Program.

14.14.9 ProcessPanel
The ProcessPanel Connection on the DriveGroup now supports additional Commands
StartX, StartY, StartAux and StopMain, and additional Status Values for Indication of the
Auxiliary Running or Hold Status.
Changed the EnSPField Value for the ProcessPanel for MOT1_VVVF and MOT2_VVVF.
This Value was inverted before, true when it was actually not possible to write the Setpoint
(in IO.Out.SPExt). The Value has been corrected but this could mean that a ProcessPanel
configuration could need to be changed if it relies on the inverted (wrong) value of
EnSPField to allow the Setpoint Input.

14.14.10 Extended Info Area SearchPath Configuration


It is now possible to customize the Late Binding Search Path to locate the Aspects linked
from the Extended Info Area. Additional Properties have been added in the BMI Overlap
Link General Properties Aspect that contain the Search Path used to specify the Object on
which the Aspects are located. Please consult the PG2 Graphics Help Function on the
Late Binding Functions for a description and examples of Search Path Values.

14.14.11 PCCIntlk
Changed the PCCIntlk IO.Out.NoIntIx_Start behaviour to always be false if any
IO.Out.NoIntIx is active – in 5.1/4a and earlier, the Start Interlock was only indicated
(false) if no non-Start Interlock was active at the same time.
MOT2 / MOTP PCC Interlock Indication is now suppressed if only Interlocks in the non-
preselected or running Direction are active – similar to the Indication of the IO.In.IAX/Y
etc. directional Interlocks.

14.14.12 Simulation Value for AIS/AIC now considers the Limit Values
When Simulation Mode is set (on the corresponding GROUP), the Value on the AIS/AIC is
now set to be between all the Low and High Limit Values for the AIC/AIS. Earlier only the
RealIO Range Min/Max was used to set the Value which could still activate a Limit
depending on the configuration.

14.14.13 New Actuator and DISDelayTxt Graphic Elements


On the PIDCtrl, AOS and AOC Blocks there is a new Actuator Graphic Element to indicate
the Damper or Valve Position in the Process Graphics without the need for an additional
Control Module.
A new DIS/DICDelayTxt is added that indicates the remaining time between Warning and
Alarm Status in addition to the DISTxt indication.

for each IndTr.

14.14.15 BMI_ValueInputCore
This Graphical Element is mainly used in FacePlates.
Input Property “DateTimeFormatString” connected to FormatString Property on Time Dew.
In case of the “DateTimeFormatString” different to “ms”, the direct entry shows the same
format as defined by “DateTimeFormatString”.

14.14.16 Number of Digits in BaseControl for AIC / AIS / AOC / AOS

15. List of Changes for 5.1/5a

15.1 New Minerals Library Viewers


The PCC Viewer, Group Status Viewer and Extended Info (ConsumerExt01) are replaced
with the new PCC Viewer, Group Step Viewer, Status Viewer and Extended Info Viewer
with this Release. Details about the new Viewers are provided in the relevant Manuals
(Consumer Objects, Group Objects resp. Wrapper Objects).
Together with the new Viewers, the PCC and Group Uploader are replaced with the
Functional Structure Uploader. The Content shown in the Viewers is now read from the
Functional Structure instead of the HTML View AC Aspects stored on the Objects.
The new Viewers require a License for “CertifiedSystemExtensions” – “OP_StatusViewer”.
New Licenses will include this Feature, for upgrades please contact
[email protected] to get this Feature added to your license.

15.2 Subgroup IO.Out.Rfs not including StartInterlock 1..4


The IO.In.StartInt1 to 4 Interlocks do not anymore set the IO.Out.Rfs to false for the
SubGroup. This means these Interlocks are now not transferred to the Master Group as
not Ready anymore and don’t inhibit a Master Group Start, similar to the Motors
“PrevDrive” Interlock.

15.3 Small Corrections

15.3.1 PCC_Threshold: Fallback to Tagname for empty Descriptions


If a PCC_Threshold_AND3 does have an empty Description (or Name Uploader was not
executed), the Tagname of the Function Block will now be shown instead in the Consumer
Faceplate while the Interlock is active.

15.3.2 Engineering Units shown in Event Text


For all Event Texts with Values (e.g. Analog Limits) the Unit is now added to the Value as
well.

15.3.3 Auto Mode switches IA IndTr


The IA Interlock (IO.In.IA) is now shown with white Color while in Auto Mode only
(independent of EnAuto Parameter).

15.3.4 Direct Group Timeout through GroupConnnect


The Group does now directly indicate Sequence Timeout if the Consumer that does not
allow the Group to Start (e.g. because of a still active RFS Interlock) is connected via a
GroupConnect_2, _4 or _8 Block.

15.3.5 GCC_Com_M and PCC_Com_Drive as Aspect Objects


The GCC_Com and PCC_Com Blocks now are enabled as Aspect Objects, in order to be
visible in the Status Viewer for improved Indication of Communication Errors.

15.3.6 DISTxt visible in case Blocked / MouseOver


The DISTxt will now be shown with a minimum Transparency (to be visible) in case the
Mouse is located over it or the “B” blocked Label is shown.

15.3.7 DriveGroup GrpStopDelay ignored if MainDrvOff


The DriveGroup will now ignore the configured GrpStopDelay when stopping from the
Master Group if AuxStopCtrl = 1 and all Main Drives are off. That means the Master
Group will not wait on this step at all. This change was introduced in Patch 4 for Version
5.1/5 already.

15.3.8 STW restart on Group start with StwFirst = true


The Startwarning will now re-start the Total Time counting if the Start Permission is given
out and the PreWarn Time is already over, if the Group is started and its StwFirst is set.
The PreWarn Time will then be started again in this case, while Perm will be kept true.
This new behavior mainly solves the issue with the TotalTime being too short for the
DriveGroup starting Auxiliaries that are connected to the same STW already when starting
the Main Group.

15.3.9 Extended DEW


In case the extended DEW (Direct Entry Window) is enabled and the Standard DEW is
disabled, the extended DEW will now be called with the Left MouseButton automatically –
this would be the Standard Configuration for a Touch Screen.

15.4 Discontinued Functions


All VB related Aspects are obsolete and have been moved into Extension Libraries.
For the SV 5.1 Installer, these are still included but shall only be used for upgrade
purposes. For SV 6.0, VB based Aspects are not provided anymore.
NOTE: any Upgrade for VB Displays to PG2 is only supported on SV 5.1 Systems.
The Search Tool is removed from the Minerals Library Distribution.

16. List of Changes for 5.1/5b

16.1 New LCC and BMIAdvancedAnalog Library


This Datatype allows a one-line connection for Analog Control Loops, similar to the
ControlConnection available in AC800M Connect Standard Libraries. It enables integrated
Range forwarding, Backtracking and Operator Navigation between the Analog Control
Modules.
The Type is used in the new BMIAdvancedAnalog Library that contains the following 4
new Control Modules:
Actuator : Controls a Valve or Damper with Analog Setpoint and Position Feedback
PIDAdvCtrl: PID Loop Controller, similar to PIDCtrl with more advanced Control Options
RatioCtrl: Control Setpoint with Gain and Offset
SplitRange: Connect PIDCtrl with two Actuators in SplitRange Configuration
Parameters of LCC Type have been added to the following BMIStandard Library blocks as
well:
PIDCtrl: OUTCC, for connection to Actuator/MOTP
MOTP: E1Ref for External Setpoint Reference (in E1 Mode)
MOT1_VVVF, MOT2_VVVF: ExtSPRef for External Setpoint Reference (SPExt Mode)

same as the PIDCtrl.
Please refer the 03 Loop Objects and 04 Consumer Objects Manuals for a detailed
Description of the new functionality.

16.2 Small Changes & Corrections

16.2.1 SystemDefault (Applied) Action for AIS Limits Enable Checkbox


All the AIS / AIC Limits Enable Checkboxes in the Faceplate (e.g. H2 Enable) are now set
to “SystemDefault” for Apply Action, to have it matching all the other Buttons and
Checkboxes in Minerals Library Faceplates.

16.2.2 Active Alarms visible in Alarm Control


In the right-click menu on the Faceplate Alarm Control (Blinking Triangle shown in the
upper right edge), the number of active Alarms are now printed next to the Alarm List for
Information.

16.2.3 AISBar / AOSBar Limit color as Logical Color


Four new Logical Colors are added in BMI NG Symbol 2 Colors. BMIngThresholdBarFill
and BMIngThresholdBarLine, that define the Color of the Limit Indication (Line) on the
AISBar Graphic Element. BMIngBarLowerLimitFill and BMIngBarUpperLimitFill, that
define the Color of the fill (crosshatching) for the Limit Indication on the AOSBar Graphic
Element.

16.2.4 Extended DEW for RecipeCtrl


Extended Direct Entry Windows have been added for the RecipeCtrl Block Setpoint Entry.

16.2.5 Stop Step for MOT2 in GroupStepViewer


The Stop Step for MOT2 and MOT2_VVVF is now only shown in the GroupStepViewer for
execution while the object is running in the respective Direction, matching the actual
behavior of the object.

16.2.6 Updated Parameters for ACS8x0 Wrappers


The AutoMode, ExternalSPIntPar and SPExtRefX/Y Parameters are now available as
Parameters on the ACS8x0 Wrapper Object as well.

16.2.7 MOTP IO.Out.WSP follows E1Ref in Manual Mode if EnAuto = false


If EnAuto = false and EnE1 = true, the IO.Out.WSP Parameter now follows E1Ref even
while the MOTP is in Manual Mode. The old behavior was to only update IO.Out.WSP
while in E1 Mode and therefore the last active Setpoint was shown in the Faceplate in
Manual Mode even when Auto Mode was disabled (Parameter EnAuto = false).

16.2.8 MOTP IO.Out.NoIntX / NoIntY now includes the Group Sequence Interlock
The IO.Out.NoIntX / IO.Out.NoIntY Parameter did not change to “false” if only the
Sequence Interlock (via DriveGroup with InterlockCtrl Parameter set) was active. This has
been corrected.

On the PCC_Intlk Block, the “IntlkDelay” and “IntlkReadyDelay” Parameters can now be
used to set the Delay Times dynamically from Glue Logic by setting the new
EnExtIntlkDelay Parameter to true.

16.2.10 Keep in Quickstop from Group on Member DriveGroup / Subgroup


The DriveGroup (resp. Subgroup) controlled from a Master Group will now stay in
Quickstop as long as the Master Group is in Quickstop. In Earlier Version the DriveGroup
switched to Off as soon as all the Drives were stopped but this could lead to a hanging
Master Group if MOTP with GrpPosX2Step / GrpPosY2Step where connected to the
DriveGroup.

18. BMI Library 5.0/1 Upgrade Hints


1. VERY IMPORTANT: Notice that upgrades from versions before 5p0s0b9 (5.0/0 b9)
and also all 4.1 versions cannot be done in a running plant. A plant shutdown must be
done in order to perform the upgrade.
2. IMPORTANT: For fast PCC indication on the FPL the OPC Server Update Rate for
text must be changed from 10000ms to 1000ms!
3. In order to make the PCC working in an existing application you have to connect the
Consumer Objects PCC variable in all the PCC parameters of IO objects.
4. Please note that when you import an existing application some small adaptions are
required. The red triangles in the CBM will guide you.
5. StepOneGroup and StepTwoGroup had some of its parameters removed and new
added because of the new PCC bus. This will require considered efforts to be
corrected.
6. Log Configuration Upgrade. The new library brings new signals to be added in the
AIS/AIC Objects under the Log Configuration Aspect. In a upgrade of an old library,
these aspects may not be updated. Follow the procedure in the next chapter to correct
this.
7. Be aware that in every existing Control Module the mapping is not modified: the former
EnTest Parameter will disappear and the former EnLoc will act for the Local Mode.
8. If you want to use the new 6 alarm delays feature in the AIS and AIC, set the constant
EnIndividualAlarmDelays located at cBMI.AIS Project Constant in BMIConstAndVar to
true before the first download in order to have the actual alarm delay copied in all
L1,L2,H1 and H2 alarm delays.

18.1 Log Configuration Upgrade


This upgrade is required when upgrading from any Minerals Library Version below
5.0/0B12.
Hard disk size considerations:
The new log definitions require approx. 3 times more space than the existing one. Please
consider this by checking the size of the history folder located under
…\OperateITData\History\{Provider ID} on every connectivity server.
1. Create a backup of your Control Structure including dependencies.
2. This procedure must be done only once in the Main Aspect Server after all the
installation of the new library version.
3. Stop the Basic History Service

4. Backup of the history files. Copy the directory …\OperateITData\History\{Provider ID}


from every connectivity server to a safe place.

8. Check in the list if it can be found some AIS or AIC. If yes, right click button and select
“Delete”. Do not delete other than AIS and AIC Log Configurations in this step!

9. Activate BMIStandardExt_AICLog and BMIStandardExt_AISLog Library again


10. Re-start the Basic History Service.
11. Wait approx. 10minutes until all history files are created. This can be checked by
looking at the number of files growing in the history folder
…\OperateITData\History\{Provider ID} on the connectivity servers.
12. Open the AdvHtArchiveTool, found in the product bin directory, located by default at:
c:\Program Files\ABB Industrial IT\Operate IT\Process Portal A \bin

13. Use the File/Select/open Archive command and point to the backup directory that was
created under item 4.
14. Use the Action/Validate Item command, were status of the individual History data logs
will be displayed.
· Validate the results. If all History data logs shows good status, continue with next
step 16.
· Use the Action/Repair Item References command - This will repair the files with
bad item references.

15. Use the Action\Insert Data into logs command and the data will be merged into the
existing logs.

18.2 Rollup Upgrades


Before upgrading to System Rollups, it is important to take into account the possibility of
having problems with old graphic references in graphic display. This can lead to problems
of not having the graphic display available for operation.
There is a procedure which is strongly recommended to be followed in order to avoid this
problem.

The following steps below (1-7) must be followed for each graphic display in the running
system (including overlap displays)
1. Open the graphic display in edit mode.
2. In the toolbar click Aspect -> Components.
3. Try to unselect each of the components listed. The following picture is just an
example.

4. If the following message appears, jump to the next component. This means that the
component is being used in the current graphic display.

5. When you find some not used component, the list will appear like that after you tried to
unselect.

6. After finishing the list search, click ok and deploy the graphic display.
7. Repeat steps 1-6 for each graphic display.
8. In order to be sure that you have the latest references deployed in your system before
the Rollup upgrade, run the Display Tool (link below) and select to deploy all the
graphic displays in the list:

19. BMI Library 5.0/2 Upgrade Hints

19.1 Group Uploader / PCC Uploader


StepOneGroup, StepTwoGroup as well as PCC_Connect Function Blocks are now
instantiated as Aspect Objects by default when a new Block is inserted into the editor. For
existing Function Blocks, the Property “Aspect Object” has to be set manually in Control
Builder M for Group Uploader / PCC Uploader to work.

StepOneGroup and StepTwoGroup Blocks “Name” Parameter was changed to


“StepName” so that the Name Uploader does not change the Name of the Function Block
to be the same as the Control Module that is controlled. This change needs to be done for
all instances of these Blocks in Control Builder M.

PCC_Connect and PCC_Connect_2 Blocks have an additional Parameter “Name” which


is propagated Back to the Signal Blocks connected via PCC Bus. Beside PCC Uploader,
they are also used to link from the Signals Faceplates to the connected Drives. For all
these Blocks, a new, unique Name has to be added in Control Builder.

19.2 Alarm & Event List Viewclass


If updating from an older Version of BMI Library, check if there are two “Main View”
Aspects of Category “Viewclass Values” found on the Alarm & Event List Viewclass. The
one with id {9007542b-5a4c-4003-8b2b-c39738eac9a3} should be deleted in this case.
However, make sure to move system specific changes which were done manually in this
Aspect to the new one.

19.3 Connected Constants to LcbRem


CBM gives a Compiler Error on constants connected to LcbRem Parameter in Consumer
Control Modules. This is because a new LCB Type is writing to this Parameter. Existing
Plants can think about deleting the (in this case not needed) Code for LCB Type 5 in
BMIAdaptions Library as a workaround.

19.4 Changed Property Attributes for Forcing of Values in Signal Control Modules
The needed Permission for forcing Values is still “Supervise”, but it is set now correctly on
IO.Signal.Force resp. IO.Signal.IOValue and not IntPar.Force anymore. Please update all
your “Property Attribute Override” Aspects that overwrite IntPar.Force accordingly. This
concerns all IO Control Modules as well as PIDCtrl (MV.Force).
Also note that per default, AOC, AOS as well as DOC, DOS still do not require Supervise
Permission for changing the IOValue but only for toggling the Forced Bit.

19.5 PCC Bus changes


Disconnecting the PCC Bus does now correctly initialize IO.AEListEn in Signal Control
Modules. However, if Signal Blocks connected via PCC Bus are run in a different (faster)
Task then the Parent (Drive), the AIS will disconnect after download and immediately
reconnect. Note that using PCC in such a configuration is not supported.

19.6 IO.Out.Run definition changed, Run Indication on Graphics changed from IO.Out.Run to
StatusRun Variable
IO.Out.Run is no longer true in case of Forced Run. Please check that your plant does
not rely on this, especially if some drives do use the Forced Run Mode (direct start without
an Order coming from the system) in normal Operation.
Because the Run indication was changed to a different Variable, all deployed Graphic
Elements will show the Motors as off until the new Code is downloaded to the Controller.
Therefore, it is advisable to minimise the Time between the first download to the
Controller and deploying the Graphic Displays after the import of the new Library. (Note
the changes needed in the Control Builder Code for PCC_Connect and StepOneGroup!).

19.7 Additional EnExtLimits Parameters on PIDCtrl


Three new Parameters were introduced to allow for more detailed selection of external
Parameters:
Param.Name affected Parameter Description old Param.
EnExtPID_Offset PID_Offset Offset for P/PD Ctrl EnExtPIDSettings
EnExtSPLimits SP_HiLim, SP_LoLim Min/Max for Setpoint in EnExtLimits
EnExtOutLimits OUT_HiLim, OUT_LoLim Min/Max for OUTP in EnExtLimits

Note that these Parameters are initially true and should be connected to the same
variables or set to the same Values as the old Parameter mentioned in the Table above
for existing Plants.

19.8 New NLS Texts


New “MineralsLib 5_0_1 AddOn Customization” and “MineralsLib 5_0_1 Counter AddOn
Customization” Objects in Library Structure hold the new NLS Texts that were added for
the new Release. Check and add all languages needed on your Plant.
New NLS Texts for the ALP1_SubTxt, ALP2_SubTxt and ALP3_SubTxt (“Warning” resp.
“Failure”) had to be introduced to show the correct Text in GroupStatusViewer and PCC
Viewer. These should be kept equal to the corresponding Project Constants found in
cBMI.AE!

19.9 Compiler Switches for CBM 5.0/2


Remove the warning from “Multiple calls to the same FB” in CBM Compiler Switches, as
else you will get multiple warnings on different BMI Library Modules…

20.1.1 Deploy of Process Displays


All Graphic Displays must be deployed using the latest Library Version before the
Migration.

20.1.2 Aspects of Type “BMI Base Display” or “BMI Overlap Display” are not migrated
In the VB6 Graphics Migration Tool - Preferences set BMI Base Display and BMI Overlap
Display to be mapped to Graphic Display PG2 Aspects.

20.1.3 Graphic Elements of wrong Aspect Type are not migrated


As with VB it was possible to connect Graphic Aspects of the wrong Type to an Object by
manually typing the Objects Name. It could happen that, for example, an AISBar was
shown for an AIC Object (instead of an AICBar). In this case, an Error like “Failed to
migrate contained element ‘AISBar1’ because the base element (AIS:AISBar) was not
resolved” is shown. These Elements need to be re-inserted manually.

20.1.4 Logical Colors connected to static Elements are not migrated


The Graphics Migration Tool loads Colors configured in the Properties as Integer Values,
but Colors configured in the Expression Editor as Color Values. As there is no possibility
to get information about the data type during migration, no automatic conversion can be
done. Colors connected in the Expression Editor are therefore lost and need to be
reconnected manually.

20.1.5 Migration Error “Guid should contain 32 digits…” on AspectLink Control


AspectExt.ocx AspectLink VB Control is mapped to 800xA’s own Aspect Link which
obviously can not work. There is no known workaround, existing Controls of this Type
need to be reinserted manually after migration.

20.1.6 Properties of data type string containing special characters are not migrated
Properties of data type string containing special characters, such as quotation marks, are
not migrated.
These properties must be set manual after migration. The delimiter “\” must be set before
a special character. E.g.: “Valve \”Open\” “

22. BMI Library 5.1/3 Upgrade Hints

22.1 Changes in the Alarms handling may cause reactivation of time delayed alarms
For performance reasons the following functions have been changed
· AlarmCond -> AlarmCondBasic
· Timer FBs -> Timer variables
The change will cause timers to restart, thus time delayed alarms and interlocks will be
reactivated after the time has elapsed only.
For critical process we recommend the plant to be in a safe state before the upgrade.

22.2 PreBinTask
The new Parameterized PreBin requires a PreBinTask, for the application similar to the
FastTask. The recommended settings:
TaskName: PreBin
IntervalTime : 2000ms
Priority: 5 - Lowest

22.3 LCB Types


If LCBType 6 is used in the current project the new project constant
cBMI.*.FieldStopIfNotRemOrLoc has to be set to False after the upgrade.

22.4 MNSiS MOTP


SerialLink.M1 was not used before because only 2 MAlarms were available. As now
MOTP supports all 3 MAlarms also SerialLink.M1 is connected to the MOTP.
Therefore the new project constant cBMI.MNSiS_MBTCP.DisableM1forMOTP has to be
set to True if upgrading from earlier versions in case this input was not used in the
MControl.

24. Minerals Library 5.1/4 Upgrade Hints

24.1 BMI_WeighfeederLib and BMIUserDefined


The Libraries BMI_WeighfeederLib and BMIUserDefined have not been updated for use in
the new Control Builder Diagram Editor and are not included in the Standard Installation
anymore. They are therefore moved to the “Minerals Library VB Graphics Extension” and
also found on the Minerals Library Installation CD as separate .afw Files and can be
imported if needed for New Projects using Single Control Modules.

24.2 StartInhibit uses Started instead of Run from Parent


Basic Objects (e.g. AIS/DIS) now use the PCC “Started” Status from the PCC Parent to
Enable / Disable the Alarm and calculation of the Start Inhibit Time for the Interlock. This
will shorten the Start Inhibit Time by the Time the Drives needs to Signal back Run after
Order is sent out, and should therefore be considered for Consumers where a long
FdbckTime is configured. This behavior can be changed with the Project Constant
cBMI.PCC.UseStartedForStartInhibit.

24.3 New Colors in “BMI NG Symbol 2 Colors”


The “Logical Color Values” Aspect “BMI NG Symbol 2 Colors” contains new Colors for
Starting and Stopping State of the Consumers. If the colors shall be overwritten with the
old Values after an Upgrade, make sure to keep the new Version of this Aspect, and
manually reapply any changes to it if needed.

24.4 PCC_Connect DrivePCC Ports have changed from Type In_Out to Out
The Port Type of the Extensible Port DrivePCC[] has changed Type from in_out to out. If
PCC_Connect was used in Function Block Editor (Single Control Modules), these Ports
will be shown with Red Color in CBM and need to be re-connected after the upgrade.
Also, if multiple PCC_Connect were connected to the same consumers, these need to be
located on the same POU (Code Page), otherwise CBM will report a Loop in the Control
Code.

24.5 SPIntPar as Parameter


The MOT1_VVVF IntPar.Setpoint and Limits have changed Positions to a Parameter
called SPIntPar. Therefore it will not be possible to change the Setpoint of the
MOT1_VVVF from the Faceplate in the Time between the import of the System Extension
and before the new Code is downloaded to the Controller.

24.6 Remove VB Faceplates and Graphic Elements (after Migration to PG2)


For Upgrade Projects (migrated from VB Graphics) that are not using the VB Graphics
anymore, it is possible to not install/import the Minerals Library VB Graphics System
Extension. However the old VB Aspects will still be kept on the Object Instances. To get
rid of the actual Aspects, the relevant Library Extension need to be manually set to
“Inactive” in the Aspect System:

This concerns the following Extension Libraries for Standard Minerals Library:
BMIStandardExt_VB, BMIStandardExt_VB_FPL
BMIEnergyExt_VB, BMIEnergyExt_VB_FPL
BMIUserDefinedExt_VB

24.7 Remove Obsolete Aspects from Minerals Library


When upgrading the Library on a System Version 5.1 with Feature Pack 4, importing
“inactive” Libraries does not work anymore. Instead the user has to set the Libraries
inactive himself for removing the Aspects from the Object Type. This Step is only needed
in case the System is upgraded from a Version before 5.1/2a on an Aspect System with
Feature Pack 4. It is possible to check if this Step needs to be done by searching the
Aspect “BMI Common Properties not used” of Type “General Properties” on the
BMIStandard “Library Version” Object in Object Type Structure Object Types/Control
System/AC 800M/C Connect /Libraries. If the Aspect is existing the following Extension
Libraries, delivered as external .afw Files with the Minerals Library CD, need to be
imported by the User. After that, these Extensions need to be manually set to Inactive -
similar to the VB Extension Libraries as described in 24.6 - to remove the Obsolete / not
used Aspects from the System:
BMIStandardExt_Obsolete
BMIEnergyExt_Obsolete

25. Minerals Library 5.1/4a Upgrade Hints

25.1 Communication Error in GCC_Com_M because of changed GCC_ComData


GCC_ComData Data Type has been changed and Groups will be not Ready for start
during Upgrade in case there are GCC_Com Blocks used between different Applications
that are not downloaded at the same time. As a workaround, assuming no Groups need to
be started or stopped while downloading all upgraded Applications, it would be possible to
configure the GCC_Com_M Block with the ComErrCtrl Parameter to keep sending the last
Values to the Group during Communication Error.

26. Minerals Library 5.1/5 Upgrade Hints

26.1 PCC Interlock to Groups now active


PCC Interlocks connected to IOGrpDrvCon.PCC on the GROUP Control Module were not
supported on earlier Releases but do now stop and/or prevent the start of the Group. This
means if any PCC Signals are connected with configured Interlocks these need to be
checked.
It is possible to get the old behavior by using a PCC_Connect with a Mask of or a
PCC_Inlk with InterlockType “NoInterlock”.
Upgrade Projects can also set cBMI.Group.DisablePCCInterlocks to disable this feature
for the whole Project.
In case a Group is connected via PCC_Connect to Signal Blocks with StartInhibit Time
set, note that the “Started” state of the Group will now also activate the Start Inhibit Timer
already.

26.2 Replacement of BMILib_Weighfeeder with RecipeControlBase


It is required to replace the WeighfeederLib with the new RecipeControlLib for completely
replacing the VB Process Graphics in the System – the BMI_WeighfeederLib will not be
updated to support PG2 Graphics. This step does however not need to be done before or
immediately after the Upgrade as the BMILib_Weighfeeder is still provided with this
Version.
Refer the 06 Dosing Objects Manual for a Comparison of the Blocks.

26.3 Blocking on AIS, AIC and DIS with Active Signal Error
If during the upgrade, any AIS, AIC or DIS has a Signal Error and is configured with
ErrCtrl = true, the Signal Blocked status will not be reset once the Signal Status changes
to Good State again. The Block needs to be removed manually from these Signals via the
Faceplate. This issue happens only for Signals that are in Signal Error Status during the
Download of the new Code Version to the Controller.

26.4 DIS/DIC with ValTr = -1 and WarnValTr = -1


DIS/DIC with ValTr smaller than 0 (-1= no AE) have changed behaviour for the Alarm,
IO.PreWarning and IO.Signal.Normal are now calculated always and PCC Interlocks are
working. In case any DIS/DIC are used as PCC Interlocks without Events, these Interlocks
were not active earlier but will now be executed.

26.5 PCC_Intlk Control Module Behaviour Changes


PCC_Intlk IO.Out.NoInt_IAStart / IBStart and ICStart Outputs are now always “false”in
case the corresponding non-“Start” Interlock is false. This is just opposite to the earlier
behaviour of keeping the Start Interlock Output always true. Glue Logic using these
Outputs should be checked if there is any
PCC_Intlk StartInhibit Time is now applied before the Alarm and Ready Delay similar to
the DIS behavior. The Interlock will now as well be reset immediately after the Consumer
Trip (StartInhibit applied again) and only the Indication is kept – existing PCC_Intlk Block
need to be checked for any use of IntlkStartInhibit > 0s together with Delay Times > 0s.

26.6 PCC Direction FB Interlock


There was an Error in 5.1/4a and earlier that disabled the “FB” Direction of the PCC
Interlock. This means that the behavior of existing Code using “FB” for PCC Interlocks
could change because the IO.Out.Run / PosX / PosY will now correctly wait for the Signal
to be active and we therefore recommend to check any existing PCC Interlocks using the
FB Option.
The FB Feature on PCC is supported by the following Consumer Objects: MOT1, MOT2,
MOT1_VVVF and MOT2_VVVF. Note that configuring the FB Option for a Signal
connected to a Consumer Object that doesn’t support it is not indicated as PCC Param
Error, but the Option is just ignored by the Consumer Object.

26.7 PCC_Intlk StartedState Parameter replaced by Status_StartedX and Status_StartedY


The Parameter StartedState has been removed from the PCC_Intlk Block. On the
Upgrade, a Signal that was connected to this Parameter should now be connected to both
the new StartedX and StartedY Parameters.

26.8 DriveGroup IO.In.EnSeqStartY initial Value false


For the Parameter IO.In.EnSeqStartY on the DriveGroup, in earlier Versions the Default
Value was “false” which means the Group would wait on the Step. This was however not
checked – the DriveGroup required only one of EnSeqStartX or EnSeqStartY true. In the
current Release this has been corrected to always check that the currently active
Preselection matches as well before Starting which means that all Groups that contain
DriveGroups that use Direction Y/Reverse could get stuck on this Step after the Upgrade.
This can be corrected by simply setting all the IO.In.EnSeqStartY Parameters to true once
online on the Controller directly after the Upgrade for all DriveGroups.

26.9 Process Panel for DriveGroup


The Cmd Constants for the DriveGroup have been changed in this Version and existing
Panel Configurations are not compatible for the DriveGroup. In case the Panels shall not
be changed, the Project Constants cBMI.ProcessPanel.DriveGroupCmd could be
adjusted to match the Values from cBMI.ProcessPanel.GroupCmd in order to be
compatible to the old behaviour.

26.10 New Extension for Log Configurations on BMI_ACS8x0 and BMI_UMC100 Libraries
The Log Configuations have been moved to Extension Libraries to allow for customized
Log Templates. During the Upgrade, this means that the Log Configurations on these
Items (History for Current, Power and Torque resp. Current and Thermal Values) are
deleted while importing the AC800 System Extension and recreated while importing the
AC800 Log System Extension only. The existing historical Data for these Logs will be lost.

26.11 “DataTreeView” Aspect on VVVFSerial in BMIUserDefined


The Aspect DataTreeView of Category Graphic Element on the Object VVVFSerial (in
Object Type Structure/Control System/AC 800M/C Connect/ Libraries/ BMIUserDefined/
Control Module Types”) shall be deleted. To do this it, set the Library state for the
“BMIUserDefinedExt_VB” Extension Library to “Inactive”.

27. Minerals Library 5.1/5a Upgrade Hints

27.1 Upload the Functional Structure


The old “HTML View AC” Aspects created with Group Uploader and PCC Uploader are
obsolete. To have the Group and PCC Viewers working, a complete Upload needs to be
performed in the Functional Structure under the “Minerals Library Automatic Upload”
Object. Note that the Upload still requires all Controllers online with working OPC Data
Connection and up to date Name Upload.
This will insert the Control Modules into Functional Structure and create the logical
Structure of the Control Application. In addition to the Viewers Content, this also
influences the Alarm and Event List filtering.
NOTE: on deletion of Objects, Control Builder will check and report an error “Object is
linked into another Structure” if the Object is still inserted into Functional Structure. To be
able to delete Objects from Control Builder, the “Functional Structure” Aspects need to be
deleted first from the Object in Plant Explorer. When using Engineering Workplace, it is
possible to delete the Object via the “Delete from all Structures” Command in the Context
Menu under “Advanced”:

27.2 Change in GCC_ComData Type


Because the transferred Datatype changed, there can be a Communication Error for
Variables transferred between Applications. In the default Configuration this means any
Group using GCC_Com_M or _S Blocks will be not Ready for Start while only one side of
the Connection is downloaded with the new Library Version.

27.3 Configure PCC Viewer for Group without Interlocks


If the cBMI.Group.DisablePCCInterlocks Project Constant was set to true as described in
Section 26.1, the PCC Viewer will still show the Interlocks connected via PCC even if
these have no effect on the Group. For this configuration, copy the Aspect “PCC
Interlocks Unsupported Configuration” In Object Type Structure from Root/ Control
System/ AC800M/C Connect/ Libraries/ BMIStandard/ Control Module Types/
GrpCycleCtrl to the GROUP Object to hide any configured Interlocks in the PCC Viewer.

27.4 Upgrade Configuration from old ConsumerExt01 to new Extended Info Viewer
With the replacement of all VB Aspects, the old Extended Info Viewer is as well removed.
If Project Specific Libraries are using the ConsumerExt01 Aspect (Extended Info Button in
Faceplate), they were configured with “HTML View AC” Aspects on the Wrapper. These
“ConsumerExtConfig” Aspects are not supported anymore and need to be replaced with a
new Aspect of Type “Minerals Library Extended Info Configuration Entry”. Please refer to
the Manual “14 Minerals Library Wrapper Objects” for the detailed Description of the new
Aspect.
As the Format of the Configuration is very similar, simple Copy and Paste of the content
will work for most cases. For this, an Excel Macro “ExtendedInfoConfigurationExport.xlsm”
is provided which will read the existing Configuration by running the Macro
“GetConfiguration” (depending on the Office Version, via e.g. View -> Macros -> View
Macros…). After that, the “NewFormat” Sheet will contain the Configuration that can be
manually pasted into the new Aspect that shall be created on the same Object as the old
ConsumerExtConfig.

27.5 Uncheck “Check for publisher’s certificate revocation” Option (800xA SV 5.1 only)
For Clients without Internet Connection, opening a Viewer (Group Step Viewer, PCC
Viewer etc.) for the first time in a newly started Operator Workplace will have a delay of
over 10 seconds. This only happens if the Client does not have an Internet Connection.
To remove this Delay, it is possible to de-select the Option “Check for publisher’s
certificate revocation” in the Internet Explorer Tools Menu, Internet Options, Advanced
Tab. NOTE: We don’t recommend to uncheck this Option if the Node is connected to the
Internet, and this issue does not affect System 800xA SV 6.0.

28. Minerals Library 5.1/5b Upgrade Hints

28.1 New OUTCC Port in PIDCtrl


Because new internal Variables are used for Range and Unit of the OUT Value, after
importing the updated System Extensions, it will not be possible to change the Out Value
of the PIDCtrl in Manual Mode until the changed Application Program is downloaded to
the Controllers.

28.2 PIDCtrl Balancing Time on Signal Error changed


Instead of the cBMI.Time10s constant, the new cBMI.PID1.SigErrBalTime constant is now
used for the Balancing Mode Timer. In case the old Constant has been changed in the
local Control Project from the default of “10s”, set this value for the newly added constant
as well to get the same behavior.

29. Upgrading NLS Resources from VB6 to support PG2 Graphics


The procedure to upgrade NLS pointers for PG2 graphics contains the points listed below:
1. Copy existing “Alarm and Event Translator” aspects to the new objects named
MineralsProj_AE_NLS and MineralsProj_IL_NLS.
They are stored under “[Library Structure] / Preferences and Customizations”.
2. Make an XML Data extract for these two aspects. The XML Data Extract and Load
tool you will find in the second tab on the NLS pointer aspects.

3. Open the XML file with a text editor and change prefix to NLSID. As shown below:
<NlsPrefix>NLSID_</NlsPrefix>
4. Load the changed XML files into the “NLS Resource Manager” aspects called
BMI_Proj_IL_NLS and BMI_Proj_AE_NLS.
Now, your Alarm and Event texts and Interlock texts are fully NLS supported in PG2
graphics as well.

30. Problems and known Bugs

30.1 ABB_REF542Plus: Aspect CBValueAndUnit


Pull Down Menu for “CBValue” shows “Voltage L32” instead of “Voltage L31”.

30.2 LateBoundViewRef problem with AspectLinkCore


The LateBoundViewRef function is not working when used with the AspectLinkCore
button connected to AspectViewReference property.

30.3 GCC_Com does not support GrpCycleCtrl


The GrpCycleCtrl GrpDrvBus cannot be extended to multiple Diagrams with
GCC_Com_M and GCC_Com_S. All Consumers connected to a GrpCycleCtrl need to be
in the same Diagram or controlled via GroupStep sending only the start and stop
commands to the other Diagram.

30.4 Loops with PCC_Connect and/or PCC_Treshold in Single Control Modules


In case multiple PCC_Connect and/or PCC_Threshold are used for the same Motor (PCC
Parent), they need to be placed into the same POU (Code Tab) or else a Loop will result
when the Compiler tries to sort the Control Code.
The same Problem does not exist for the Diagram Editor (CBM FD Editor).

30.5 Multiple Connections between Signals and Cosumers via PCC_Connect


With using multiple PCC_Connect connected to each other, it would be possible to build
structures with multiple Connections to the same Consumer (e.g. MOT1) that carry PCC
Information from the same Signal. Such structures will not be supported by the PCC
Viewer and the Viewer will not correctly indicate the Masked and Enabled Interlocks for
these Configurations. There shall only exist maximal one Path between a Consumer and
any Signal, when following the PCC Connections from the Consumer through the
PCC_Connect, PCC_Connect_2 and PCC_Connect_6 Blocks.

30.6 PCC Alarm / Interlock Limitations in the current Release


Additionally to the Description in the Manual for the allowed PCC Combinations (see the
Manual 02 Basic Objects) following should be considered:
Direction X is used for Interlocking the VLVNO1 Started (= Closed) State. VLVNO1 does
not support the LocalStartInhibit Option.
The IntlkStartInhibit Delay Time does not take the Directions into account. This means
that e.g. an Interlock with DirX will still be activated after the configured Time Delay even if
the Drive is running in Direction Y.
DirFB Interlocks are only supported for MOT1, MOT2, MOT1_VVVF and MOT2_VVVF
Blocks, the GROUP, MOTP, VLV1, VLVNO1 etc. Types are not supporting this option,
which means the Run resp. PosOpn / PosCls will not be delayed until all FB Interlocks are
true. PCC “FB” Direction cannot be used to replace Limit Switches.
Using Dir_noAck with a configured IntlkStartInhibit Delay is not working as expected. The
DIS and AIS Blocks are keeping the Alarm Active while the Signal is not Acknowledged,
therefore the “noAck” Option on the Direction Parameter will have no effect if a StartInhibit
Delay is configured.

The IA_Process Interlock will indicate the Drive not Ready for Start even if the Auto Mode
is enabled and therefore the Drive could be started (to Mode Auto - State Off) by the
Group. This means for an Auto-Start Consumer the Interlock IA_Process_RFS should be
configured always.
Interlock Type PD_PreviousDrive together with Direction Dir_Start is not tripping (to
Manual) if the Consumer is off in Auto Mode.
Alarms are only forwarded via PCC if the configured AlarmTr / WarnTr / LimxTr etc. is
greater or equal 1. Otherwise the Motor would still trip as per the configured Interlock but
the Tag would not be visible in the Faceplate.
Tagnames for Signals connected via PCC must not start with “%%” (two percentage
chars)

30.7 Code Sorting


Several Features of the Library depend on the correct sorting of Control Code, this means
that Loops in Control Code can break these Functions:
§ Pre-Selection Stand-by switchover
§ GCC_Com and PCC_Com Communication Modules
§ GroupConnect_2, 4 and 8
In General, the Control Code should not contain any Loops. For Control Builder Diagrams
Editor, this includes as well the Warning 1754 “There is no forward flow between the
blocks of the feedback connection”.

30.8 Blocked Value in case of Signal Error with ErrCtrl = true on AIS
For the AIS Control Module, the Value on the Hardware Channel will be blocked (forced)
during Signal Error as well in case ErrCtrl is set true. The Error Value itself is only applied
once when the Signal Error is coming up, but can then be changed from the Faceplate if
the Permission is given (Supervise Role) – this Permission is defined on the Value itself,
therefore the Permission to change the Value during Signal Error is the same as the
Permission to change the Value while the Signal is blocked.
