If there is an RCS request error, then proceed as follows:
From the "process image" or from the menu, start the application "RCS".
In this application, all routes are listed line by line. Their highlight colour indicates
their current status:

Perform a horn acknowledgment to request the way again


The program will now try to load the route again. If this still does not work, error
messages are displayed.

NOTE If many elements simultaneously show alarms, the reason may be that the RCS
server is disconnected from one of the PCU's.

2.4 Batch handling (unit recipes)


2.4.1 Basic structure of the programs for plant units and for basis
operations

The individual processes are controlled by the programming of plant units or


sequencers. One sequence is responsible for one particular part of the process.
Each sequence is divided into a number of steps. The individual steps are stored in
a list of recipes with a maximum of 13 set points (flow, pressure, temperature etc.)
for each step.
The so-defined steps of a process are executed by the sequence one after
another. It is possible to interrupt the sequential execution of the recipe list and to
jump to another step (forward, backward) if required.

How to start a recipe of a unit


A process is started by starting its corresponding sequence. This is done by setting
the step number from 0 to 1. This can be done in three different ways:
From the system overview,
From a control unit - faceplate in the process picture, or
From the batch list (order system).

3.0 Issue <01.07.2013> 40/75


Compact Manual for Operators

"BRAUMAT" Operator Manual

NOTE If order parameters are used, only the batch list/order system can start the
recipe.

Starting the sequence from the system overview


This method uses the application Sequence-control from the menu Process-
Monitoring.
Table 56

Select the
appropriate
group from the
pull-down menu
Process-cell. A
dialog box opens
(see below)

Job and Batch-numbers


Job and batch numbers are needed to
plan a process (for example filtration)
get a report as a step protocol.
It is therefore important to increase the batch and / or order number before starting
a unit.
When a process is started by the batch list, the system will automatically increase
the batch number or order-number (depending on the selected algorithm).
The order number can be seen here as superior. By one order number, one or
more processes with different batch-numbers can be started.
In the Brewhouse, the batch-number can count up for one year and then restart.
Thus, a process with the same batch and order-number will generate the same
protocol-file, which makes it difficult to identify the batch.

2.5 Curve visualization: Trends


The system can log measurements of specific values over a certain period,
creating so-called Trends. These curves can be displayed with the application
"Trending".
The values to be archived and displayed with the trend are defined thorough the
application "Trending definition" from the tab Engineering-Tools.

2.5.1 Types of Trends

BRAUMAT supports three types of trend curves:


Short term trends: User-selected collections of trend curves which are not
stored on the hard disk
Weekly archives (stored on hard disk)
Batch archives (stored on hard disk)

NOTE Short-Time Curves, are defined in the "Trending definition" application.

If the YN flag is raised, the controller switches off, and a fixed value defined in
the parameter YNF is transferred to the output.
In operation mode X-Tracking (XTR = "1") the internal target value is adjusted
to the actual value of XIST. This renders possible a smooth transfer from
external to internal tracking.
If the Reversing duty flag is raised, then an increased of the actual value will
result in a decrease of the output, and vice versa.

4.2 Recipe-System
General information
For each Sequence there is a recipe with the according steps and parameters.
(See also 3.2)
There is an active and a passive recipe server. The recipes are stored on both
servers, but at any time only one server will load the recipes at the start of a unit to
the PCU. The active server can be determined from the toolbar of the PCU server.

Troubleshooting
The recipe server can only operate properly when all of the following conditions are
met:
Copyright Siemens AG 2013 All rights reserved

All connections must be established for each PCU in the PCU-Server. (To
BRAUMAT_Operator_Manual_V3_en.docx

verify this, switch the PCU-server with the pull-down menu to "View", coupling-
status".)
The connection state for the PCUs is green.
The network cables must be connected properly.
The PCU must not be in state "STOP".

4.3 RCS system


4.3.1 General information

The route control system (RCS) is primarily a tool by which the planning,
processing and the diagnosis of routes can be performed in environments with
many different routes, like in the tank farm.
It allows controlling and monitoring in an easy and transparent manner.

4.3.2 Switch RCS servers

Like the recipe server, at any time only one RCS server is active on one IOS, but
the active server can be switched to a different IOS, similar to the recipe server.
Like with the recipe server, the active RCS server can be switched through the
corresponding buttons in the toolbar of the PCU server, and the RCS server status
(active/passive) is displayed with an icon there.

In order for the RCS server to start up properly, all connections must be
established for each PCU.
To check this, switch the PCU-Server to " Options", route-control".

All PCUs must be in the state "server" to be able to receive telegrams.


If this is not the case, select the command Restart from the menu "Functions".

NOTE If the PCU was in "stop" mode, or the power supply was off, a restart of the PCU-
Server is always required.

4.4 Data handling and backup


4.4.1 Automatic delete function

In the background, new data in the form of protocols, reports, graphs, etc. are
constantly stored by the system, thereby decreasing the free hard disk space.
Therefore, the remaining space on the hard disk must be checked in regular
intervals, and old data deleted.

NOTE We recommend for this a maintenance interval of approximately one year.

To keep administration to a minimum, the process data is stored only on the two
servers. The clients take their data from the servers and need not be checked.

4.4.3 PCU data backup and restore

Backups of all PCU blocks (DB, FBs, FCs) should be performed at regular
intervals. This can be made by the Simatic Manager, or more easily with Braumats
application File transfer.

Backing up data from the PCU


Table 10

Open one of the CPU-files


"S7PCU00X.TRS" according to
your PCU.
Click the Button "PCU> IOS" to
backup the files to the IOS.
Copyright Siemens AG 2013 All rights reserved
BRAUMAT_Operator_Manual_V3_en.docx

This ensures that in the event of a PCU failure or an empty buffer battery on the
CPU, you restore current data to the new PCU.

Restoring data to the PCU


To restore data to the PCU after a failure, use Braumats File transfer application in
the other direction:
Table 11

The corresponding files are stored in


C:\WINDCS\PCU.003\DB,
C:\WINDCS\PCU.003\FB, and
C:\WINDCS\PCU.003\FC, respectively.

NOTE If the buffer battery of the PCU is empty, your program will be lost in case of a
power failure, and you will have to resort to your backup.
To avoid this, we recommend checking the buffer battery in regular intervals.

Troubleshooting

5 Troubleshooting
This section gives you a few hints to solve simple troubles which may occur when
working with BRAUMAT.

5.1 Problems starting a unit


If the sequence of a plant unit doesnt start up properly, check the following points:
The Sequence-status must be "A" (automatic) and "+" (step forwarding active).
(see the black circle in the figure below)
The permanent condition must be ok. If the condition "#" is displayed, the
system is locked and cant start. (see the black circle in the figure below)
If an order parameter is used in the recipe, then a sequence can only be
started from the order system.
Table 1

BRAUMAT_Operator_Manual_V3_en.docx

5.2 Problems when the step chain doesnt proceed


properly
If the program doesnt proceed to the next step although apparently all next step
conditions are cleared, the following should be checked:

Are all transition conditions fulfilled?


To test this, proceed as follows:
Activate the S7-Code viewer of the relevant basic operation with the "Detail"
button in the Unit faceplate.
Use the "+" button to go to the last network.
The display shows the relevant commands for the transition condition.
Common errors are quantities which are not ok, or tanks which are not yet empty,
etc.

5.3 Sequence control issues


Several error conditions can be checked from the Sequence control application.

Is any next step condition (Temperature, Time) not ok?


Chose the sequence and select Program, Step-on-condition or press F4, to see
the next-step conditions.

Is there an operator request pending?

Is the program waiting for another sequence (synchronization)?


Select the correct sequence and press F9. The graphical recipe will come up, and
synchronizations are displayed.

Are there relevant entries in the Alarm list?

Is the Sequence in "Automatic"?


The automatic mode of the sequence must be set to A in the column "Status.

Is the Step set to A ?


The Status column must be set to "+".

Is the program on "hold" mode?


In the "Status" column the S88-buttons must be set to "hold" mode.

Are there any error messages from one of ICM's used in this area?
