Presentation of the Library

 

General Information

Library Overview

The TeSys island library provides function blocks to support developing applications and to control avatar modules. Avatar modules are digital function objects managed by TeSys island system. It is used to interact with power devices and accessories such as AIM (Analog Interface Module). The avatar modules are configured on the TeSys island and the TeSys island bus coupler (System avatar) is managing the communication with the controller via fieldbus.

The function blocks are fieldbus independent and have no logic instructions. The inputs and outputs of the function blocks are linked to the process image (cyclic data) without any modifications. Inputs and outputs, which are not part of the process image are exchanged via acyclic communication methods.

The configuration of the TeSys island bus coupler and the avatar modules is managed by the TeSys island DTM (Device Type Manager), which is integrated in EcoStruxure Machine Expert environment. For further information, refer to TeSys island DTM Library Online Help.

Default namespace

TeSysI

Language model attribute

qualified-access-only

Forward compatible library

Yes (FCL)

NOTE: For this library, qualified-access-only is set. This means, that the POUs, data structures, enumerations, and constants have to be accessed using the namespace of the library. The default namespace of the library is TeSysI.

General Considerations

Only IPv4 IP addresses are supported for the communication functions provided with this library.
