A convenient way to input circuit configuration
March 2002
SCADA/HMI
The Easy-Soft range of control relays from Moeller Electric is supported by an easy-to-use programming application which makes programming particularly simple for the user. The graphics editor shows the desired representation of the circuit diagram directly and selection menus facilitate the making of logic connections. The user selects and connects contacts and coils, using the mouse. The user-friendly menus and texts are provided in a choice of five languages. The following types of display can be selected for viewing, processing and printing out of the program:
* In accordance with IEC in international standards, with contact and coil symbols.
* With easy circuit configuration, 1:1.
* In accordance with the American Standard ANSI.
Notes alongside contacts and coils create clarity. A cover sheet, the title blocks and the cross-reference list with comments make printouts professional pieces of documentation.
Under Windows NT, 95 and 98, the software supports every easy function. Before each easy control relay is run, the software compares the application to the selected version of easy. As a result, the user receives optimum assistance when configuring a circuit and avoids errors when transferring the circuit configuration into the relay controller.
The software may also be used for commissioning as well. The controller is connected on-line with the software by means of a PC cable. Straightaway the user will see the present status of the contacts and coils in the control panel along with indication of the current flow, directly on the screen. Setpoint values and parameters can also therefore be modified quickly and the results displayed directly in the circuit diagram.
Completed circuits can be transferred to the easy control relay as often as desired via the PC interface. This saves time.
