This opens up a new dimension for users for adapting the specified systems to the specific functions of their machines. DCC has no restriction with regard to the ‘number of usable functions; this is only limited by the performance capability of the target platform, EE (Sait Rat le as lla a eee a= ay a bercanese BmlQoeoe008 Beers] osm [Yom OE om DCC comprises the DCC editor and the DCB library (block library with standard DCC blocks), SINAMICSISIMOTION DCC editor description Programming and Operating Manual, 11/2010, 6SL3087-4AN0O-0BPO 9Introduction 10 ‘The user-friendly DCC edkor enables easy graphic configuration and a clear representation of control loop structures as well as a high degree of reusability of existing charts. ‘The open-loop and clased-loop control functionality is defined by using mult-instance- capable blocks (Drlve Control Blocks, DCBs) from a pre-defined library (DCB library) that are selected and graphically linked by dragging and dropping. Test and diagnostic functions allow verification of program behavior or the identification of causes in the event of errors. The block library contains a large selection of control, arithmetic and logic blacks as well as ‘extensive open-loop and closed-loop control functions. ‘All commonly used logic functions are available for selection (AND, XOR, On/Off delay, RS flipflop, counters, etc.) for the logic operation, evaluation and acquisition of binary signals. Diverse arithmetic functions such as absolute-value generation, dividers and minimum/maximum analysis are available for monitoring and evaluating numeric variables. In addition to the drive control, axial winder functions, Pl controllers, ramp-function generators or sweep generators can be configured simply and without problem. Almost unlimited programming of control structures is possible in conjunction with the SIMOTION motion control system. These can then be combined with other program sections to form an overall program. Drive Control Chart for SINAMICS drives also provides a convenient basis for resolving drive-level open-loop and closed-loop control tasks directly in the converter. This results in further adaptability of SINAMICS for the tasks set. On-site processing in the drive supports modular machine concepts and results in increased overall machine performance.
