Using the Advanced Engineering System (AdvES), consulting engineers and planning offices as well as end customers can significantly reduce their configuration and commissioning costs while simultaneously improving the engineering quality.
The SIMATIC PCS 7 Advanced Engineering System (AdvES) expands the functionality for plant configuration and can be started from a SIMATIC PCS 7 project in SIMATIC Manager. It acts as a link between
- Tools for basic and detailed planning, e.g. EPlan, ELCAD or SmartPlant, and
- Standard engineering tools from the SIMATIC PCS 7 engineering toolset, e.g. CFC, HW Config, plant hierarchy.
AdvES uses various data import options in order to collect existing engineering data from the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system and from process tag and signal lists in Microsoft Excel format and to prepare these for utilization in the SIMATIC PCS 7 engineering system.
Data from process tag and signal lists can be automatically imported into AdvES. Integrated change management supports the repeated importing of modified data from Microsoft Excel.
AdvES recognizes process tags in Excel lists after the first assignment, automatically assigns them to process tag types of any PCS 7 project library, and then generates the following data:
- PCS 7 process tag instances with signal and parameter settings
- Plant hierarchy (PH)
- Hardware configuration
Inconsistencies can be detected quickly by means of plausibility and data consistency checks, displayed in a log, and then eliminated in a targeted manner.
Manual processing functions for editing plant hierarchies and process tags as well as for interconnection of signals between process tags allow completion of the imported data. Numerous filter functions support data selection.
Special editors for mass data processing offload the project engineer from time-consuming routine work.
With the support of integrated design templates, the different table views of the AdvES data can also be displayed as reports and printed.
