Connecting a Local Source Control to the FieldPoint Driver Object

• The control you made uses a remote source connection. You can also use a local source control with a direct connection. Both types of connections have their appropriate uses.
• A Lookout remote source connection is interactive. When you adjust the control, Lookout adjusts the object or PLC the control is connected to.
• If the object or PLC changes from some cause other than a control adjustment, the control changes value to match the PLC or object it is connected to. You can think of the value as being “owned” by the PLC or the object that is connected to the control.
• You can also make direct connections from Lookout, in which the Lookout control is its own local source for its value. In this sort of connection, you can think of the Lookout control as “owning” the value. If the object or PLC this sort of control is connected to changes from some cause other than a control adjustment, Lookout will restore the local value of the control to the PLC or object as soon as it can.
  You need only two switches for this demonstration exercise, but you can use as many as eight.

1. Press to return to Edit mode (the status bar at the bottom of the Lookout workspace should turn yellow).

2. -click on your first switch and drag it to make a new switch object. This newly created switch is automatically named Switch2 (assuming you left your first switch named Switch1). This new switch is a new object, but it has the same URL connection to the Channel 0 data member as the first switch you created. In the following steps, you will change this connection.

3. Right-click on your new switch, and select Object Properties.
   The following dialog box appears.

4. Select the Local option in the Position source section of the dialog box. Click on OK.

5. Place your new switch below the first switch you created.
   Tip Select the switches and use the options under the Arrange menu to get a neat arrangement quickly.

6. Connect the FieldPoint object data member to the new switch.
   Lookout object data members are used to read from and write to the equipment you are controlling. For a detailed explanation of Lookout data members, see the section How Lookout Works in the Lookout online help.
   To connect to a data member in Lookout, right-click on the FieldPoint1 object in the Object Explorer, and select Edit Connections.
   The FieldPoint1 connections dialog box appears, as shown in Figure 23.
   The Select member portion of this dialog box is where you choose the data member you want to connect to. All the available (writable) data members are displayed in the left window. Existing connections are shown in the right window. (The Poll Rate data member shows as being connected because you set it when you created your FieldPoint object.)
   The Signals section of the dialog box is where you select the object or value you want to connect to the value you choose in the Select member section of the dialog box. Notice that you can select an object or control running anywhere on your network.
   Tip When you create or edit connections in Lookout, always select the object you want to connect to. For detailed information on making Lookout connections, see the Connecting Objects section of Chapter 4, Using Lookout, in the Getting Started with Lookout manual.

7. Fill out the Select Member field of the dialog box as shown in the following illustration by highlighting FP_DO_400__3.Channel_1 in the Writable members field.

8. Click on the Select button to select the FP_DO_400__3.Channel_1 data member. Fieldpoint1.FP_DO_400__3.Channel_1 (or as much of the string as there is room for) appears next to the yellow field in the center of the dialog box.

9. Select Switch2 from the Signals Tags list. Select the (implicit) data member.

10. Click on Paste and then Accept to create the new logical connection.

11. Click on Quit when you have finished making your connections.

12. Leave Edit mode and try your new switch. Notice the LED for Channel 1 on the FP-DO-300 responds to the control you created.

    -click on the label Channel 0, and drag the text next to the new switch. Right-click on the label, select Display Properties, and change the text to Channel 1. Click on OK. For more detailed information on connecting objects and data members, see the section Using Lookout in the Lookout online help.

Check Your Aliases

Lookout uses aliases to make it easier to keep track of what data members are serving for what data, for scaling your data, and making data logging easier. For more information on creating and using aliases, see the section Using Lookout in the Lookout online help.
When you imported the information from your FieldPoint .iak file, Lookout automatically accepted alias names and scaling data from the file. Use the Lookout database to check your aliases and scaling values.

1. Make sure your Lookout process is in Edit mode.

2. Right-click on FieldPoint1 in the Object Explorer, and select Edit Database. The default names assigned to the data members by FieldPoint Explorer should appear as a list of aliases in the Configured points field of the dialog box, as shown in the following illustration.

3. To make sure that the Lookout data member AI001.00 is assigned the alias FP_AI_110_1.Channel_0, select FP_AI_110_1.Channel_0, and make sure that AI001.00 shows up in the Member field. The Raw units minimum should be set to 0 and the maximum to 65535. Set the minimum Eng. units to 0 and the maximum to 0.021. These value selections scale your data appropriately.

4. Scroll down in the Configured points list to see the other configured data members and aliases. Notice the differences in dialog boxes for numeric and logical data members. The following illustration shows the alias information for FP_DO_400_3.Channel_0.
   The Lookout database keeps track of your data automatically. As you can see from the fields in the Edit Database dialog box, you can scale and filter data, set alarm points, set logging preferences, and more, by editing your process database.

5. Click on Quit when you have finished checking or editing your aliases. See the Lookout documentation for complete information on getting the most out of your Lookout database.

Display Expressions

You are now ready to complete your SCADA application.
After you have created a Lookout object, you can display it—or its data members—using Lookout expressions. For complete information on using Lookout expressions, see the section Expressions in the Lookout online help.

1. Click on FP_DO_400__3.Channel_0 in the Object Explorer and drag it to your control panel next to the switch for Channel 0. A default indicator appears.
2. Create an indicator for your second switch. -click on the first indicator, and drag it to make a copy. Right-click on the copy and select Object Properties. In the Revise expression dialog box, select FieldPoint1 and FP_DO_400__3.Channel_1, as shown in Figure 26.
3.  Click on Paste, then click on OK.
4. Your front panel should now look something like Figure 27. Remember that your indicators are connected to your FieldPoint object, not to the Lookout switches.
5. To check your connections, leave the Edit mode by pressing . You can now operate your switch controls. If flipping a switch does not change the color of the indicator, check your FieldPoint connections and configuration.
6. Return to Edit mode by pressing to continue building your application.
7. To display the status of digital inputs from your FP-DI-330 module, create expressions as you did in Step 1 for the DI data members, FP_DI_330__2.Channel_0 and FP_DI_330__2.Channel_1. You can use the standard indicator, or choose your own by right-clicking on the indicator, selecting Display Properties, and choosing a different indicator. Click on OK.
8. Label the new set of indicators FP-DI-330 at address 2. Once again, for your indicators to change color, there must be some input to your FieldPoint module.
9. To display values from your Analog input module, put a different kind of Lookout expression on your control panel. Click and drag the FP_AI_110_1.Channel_0 data member to your control panel. Because this data member is numeric instead of logical, a digital indicator appears. To change the appearance of the display, right-click on it and select Display Properties. Complete the dialog box as shown in the following illustration, then click on OK.
10. Copy and edit expressions to add all the other FP-AI-110 values you want to display on your panel.
11. Select Insert»Text/plate/inset, and label the new indicators FP-AI-110 at address 1.
12. Add an update indicator to your panel by dragging the Update data member to the panel. You can continue to add labels as you create new expressions.
13. Add a communications failure indicator by dragging the CommFail data member to your control panel.
14. Using the labeling and other features of Lookout, your completed control panel might look something like Figure 29.
    For your Lookout control panel to function completely, you must have your FieldPoint modules connected to your computer and configured, and you must also have electrical signals connected to the input modules.
    You can modify this example to create your own FieldPoint control system, or use the techniques illustrated to build your SCADA control from scratch.
