Configuring Multiscan Galileo Event Commands Macro

Scenario: You want the commands for gas detector events of the Galileo control panel to also work from Event List. For this purpose, you must create a specific macro in Desigo CC .

Reference: For background information, see Multiscan Commands.

Workflow diagram:

Prerequisites:

Desigo CC is configured to integrate the Multiscan Galileo gas control panel. See Integrating Sensitron Multiscan.
System Manager is in Engineering mode.

Steps:

1 – Create a Scope Rule for the Network

In System Browser, select Management View.

Select Project > System Settings > Scopes.

In the Scopes tab, click New and select New Definition.

In the Scopes tab, drag-and-drop the Modbus network (in this case, Multiscan) that you want to include from System Browser into the Scopes field of the Scope Rules section.

The Scopes field automatically being set based on the linked objects.

Click Save .

Enter a name and description for the new scope. For example, Galileo Modbus Network Scope.

2 – Create a Macro Folder for the Event Commands Macros

In System Browser, select Application View.

Select Applications > Logics > Macros.

in the Macro tab, click New .

In the New object dialog box, enter a name and description.

Click OK.

The newly-created folder is added to System Browser.

3 – Create the Event Commands Macros

In System Browser, select the Manual navigation check box to retain the Macro tab.

Drag-and-drop the target scope object (in this case, Galileo Modbus Network Scope) from System Browser to the empty area inside the Macro tab.

A new row is created.

Configure the other fields as follows:

Property: Alarm 3 [Alarm3]¹⁾

Command: Ack [Ack]

Click Save As .

In the Save Object As dialog box, enter the following name and description:

BLOCK_ACK_ManagementView_FieldNetworks_[GalileoNetworkName]

Click OK.

The new macro is added to System Browser under the specified macros folder.

¹⁾	It is also possible to use Alarm1 or Alarm2 properties in the command configuration of the macro, since they all send the same ACK command to the Galileo panel.

NOTICE

Abiding by Naming Conventions is Essential

Since the name of the macro is strictly connected to the name of the network in the specific project, this action must be performed after the creation of the network itself, and must be performed manually, project by project.

Abiding by the above-mentioned naming convention is mandatory for the event commands to work for gas detector events.
