Video: How to integrate TeSys Island into Studio 5000

Product Line:
TeSys Island - Digital load management solution

Resolution:

Integration of the TeSys Island device within the Rockwell Studio 5000 environment can be done with a few simple steps.  The below video and linked quickstart guide will provide step by step instructions on this integration.  The below video reference's an already configured TeSys Island architecture with the use of our SoMove programming software.  These instructions provide the steps to:

-Download the necessary L5X files from the configured Island using the SoMove software.
-Import these three files (Module, Subroutine, and AOI).
-Communicate to TeSys Island through Function blocks.

Library Compatibility: L5X files exported from SoMove software are compatible with Studio 5000 major version 30 or higher. Refer to the product compatibility & downloads page on the Rockwell Automation websited to verify that the PLC firmware is compatible with the Studio 5000 version being used.

NOTE: Due to data referencing, the L5X files must be imported in the order listed below.

The following files are generated by SoMove software:

1. Generic Ethernet Module: This file contains a Generic Ethernet AOP representing the TeSys island configuration. It includes comments in the Controller Tag section indicating what each piece of data is referencing. It uses the following naming convention: {DeviceName}Module.L5X.

2. Explicit Messages (if acyclic data exists): This file contains the following: • subroutines containing explicit messages for calling acyclic data • a data buffer used to hold the acyclic data before and after transmission It uses the following naming convention: {DeviceName}_Acyclic.L5X.

• Note: If a TeSys island configuration does not have acyclic data, this file is not generated.

3. Add-on Instructions (AOI): This file contains the AOIs used for generating function blocks. It must be imported last because the AOIs’ reference tags are contained in the other two files. It uses the following naming convention: {DeviceName}_Aoi.L5X.

• Note: If you alter the naming convention for a TeSys island or for pre-existing avatars, then when you integrate configuration changes into a project, all the imported Studio 5000 software entities (tags, AOIs, and generic Ethernet module) must be deleted and the import process repeated for the new configuration.
