1. Unity Application Generator How Can I… Import control modules (Instrument list) from PID Into the UAG

2. Schneider Electric 2 - EU – UAG team, 7th October 2009 Issue ●I am using an engineering software to develop my PIDs. ●I want to export the details of the devices (motors, valves, field instruments etc) from the PID and import into UAG.

3. Schneider Electric 3 - EU – UAG team, 7th October 2009 How to do.. Basic explanation ●UAG supports import of data in two formats: XML and text file. ●User can generate a file from engineering drawing tool in XML or txt format. ●UAG supports import of Instrument list in this format: ●Note: User has to possibility of generating instrument list or generating the Control modules direct into pre-defined physical models

4. Schneider Electric 4 - EU – UAG team, 7th October 2009 How to do.. Basic explanation ●This figure explains the procedure: Engineering Software Text fileGenerates OR XML File Import Generates Style sheet has to be used to make files Compatible between two Application Generates Import UAG

5. Schneider Electric 5 - EU – UAG team, 7th October 2009 How to do.. Outside UAG ●We are assuming this is what has been exported from engineering drawing software. ●In this excel sheet, one can see the name of device, type and description. ●UAG supports import in this format: KeywordName of the device Block to be used For the device from The library Name of library device Type of the device Description of the device

6. Schneider Electric 6 - EU – UAG team, 7th October 2009 How to do.. Outside UAG ●This means the format of the file exported from the engineering drawing tool has to be adapted with the format of the UAG importable file. ●User can generate using style sheet in XML format from engineering drawing tool or exporting the details in excel (text file) and adapt the format using some macros. ●In this example, we have used a macro “Macro2” present in this file:

7. Schneider Electric 7 - EU – UAG team, 7th October 2009 How to do.. Outside UAG ●MACRO 2 should be executed. ●The excel file will be transformed to this format: with all the required information: KeywordName of the device Block to be used For the device from The library Name of library Type of the device Description of the device

8. Schneider Electric 8 - EU – UAG team, 7th October 2009 How to do.. Outside UAG ●The file will be saved as text file: MyExport.txt under D:\UAG Applications. ●IMPORTANT points: ●If there is no “D:\UAG Applications” folder available, then please create one or edit the macro 2 to key in the right path ●The macro will generate the file “Myexport.txt” automatically. There use don’t have to do anything other than execute the macro. ●During closing the excel file, the excel will ask if the user wants to save the file. Please do not save the file as it is in text format.

9. Schneider Electric 9 - EU – UAG team, 7th October 2009 How to do.. In UAG ●The text file then can be imported into the UAG, using FILE  IMPORT option:

10. Schneider Electric 10 - EU – UAG team, 7th October 2009 How to do.. In UAG ●All the devices will be imported into the UAG ●The device can be seen by clicking on the INSTRUMENT LIST

11. Schneider Electric 11 - EU – UAG team, 7th October 2009 How to do.. In UAG ●User can drag and drop the control modules into the desired physical level

12. Schneider Electric 12 - EU – UAG team, 7th October 2009 Conclusion ●User can import information from engineering drawing tools in the UAG using XML or Text files. ●User can import the information either into INSTRUMENT LIST of the UAG or directly into the desired physical model level. ●Please use following file for importing the PIDs into UAG using Device and Process library. Thanks for your attention!
