Hello guys, I've been using AdvancedES for a test project. I did the course but I still think that using AdvancedEs is not worth it 100%. For example... I have a Valve with two feedback signals and I create two variants. One with only feedback open and one with only feedback closed. In total I have three possible variants, by only creating one CMT. Great so far..That is the power of CMT's. What if I use the variant which has only a feedback open signal?..... Automatically the FbkClose parameter from the Valve block is deleted and is set to default value "0". If I create CM's of it, the Valve will generate an monitoring error. OK, So I have to assign the NoFbkOpen and NoFbkClose as well. When assigning the mapping labels, I cannot see a mapping label to use. I have to change the attribute: "parameter" to "signal", because in the mapping list of signals, the labels: NoFBO and NoFBC are present. Now, I have to create in excel two additional columns where I can check if the valve has an feedback open and/or feedback closed signal and assign to the mapping label. In that case, the excel list will be huge when considering other control module types. I'm better of making a copy of the CMT and create a Valve CMT with a feedback open only and a Valve CMT with feedback closed only. So the whole concept of using variants is not that great after all. Is there an easier way? |
