It’s now over to you The engineering

Freelance 800F allows you to enjoy consistent

configuration, commissioning and diagnosis –

from graphics to the field device – using just

one engineering tool. All five programming lan

guages specified in IEC 61131-3 are available.

Users especially appreciate how quickly they

are able to familiarize themselves with the tool.

Supported by a uniform data basis throughout

the system as well as extensive reference func

tions, the Control Builder F enables you to con

duct the entire configuration quickly and easily –including:

• Configuring and parameterizing the field devices and I/Os

• Setting the bus topology and parameters

such as transmission rates and addresses

The task of configuring and displaying the field

devices is also user-friendly because using

FDT/DTM eliminates the time-consuming task

of integrating device GSD files. Graphical parame

terization dialogs supplied by the device manu

facturers – which are referred to as Device Type

Managers (DTMs) and are incorporated in a

similar manner to printer drivers in Windows –

transmit all specific signals and parameters to

the control system’s engineering tool. The master

is simultaneously configured. These DTMs are

available for most of the important field devices.
