I want to enable/disable hardware in Physical view using HMI, (Without using AS software).
Operators want to enable/Disable IO hardware using HMI itself means using external bit.
fyr
Please help me regarding this
Hello Veeresh
This is not that simple, but you can have a look into the mappIO library: B&R Online Help
This librabry is made to change the hardware in runtime and should solve your needs.
Like mentioned mappIO could solve this. But as far as I know you have to restart the machine after hardware is exchanged even with mappIO.
Could you describe the reasoning behind the change of hardware by the operator through the HMI? Maybe there are other Ideas to solve the underlying problem in the community.
We are not exchanging the hardware here.
Just i want enable/disable IO modules using external signal (bool or int or anything)
Because it is single program for multiple machines, but one hardware (DM9324) used in one machine but in another machine not used (not fixed physically) in that case i can able disable/enable hardware by using AS but i need to enable or disable without using AS software.
we are using Visualization not Mapp view.
Exhanching and disabling the hardware is essentially the same thing to the controller so disabling the module with a bool is not posible as you intend.
To clarify on the different machines they have the same hardware but it is just not. Because if that is the case there is no need to disable the hardware
Hi.
Would it be feasible to simply set the modules to “unsupervised” and replace them with a X20ZF0000 if the modules are not required?
