PLSDOC^® SFC - Reverse Documentation of Sequence Controls

Documentation of Sequence Chains / Reverse Documentation - Siemens WinCC / SIMATIC PCS 7 Add-On

PLSDOC^® SFC provides the reverse documentation of step chains or sequence controls. The SFC-D module was developed for the comparison of the version statuses of sequence chains (SFC - Sequential Function Chart). As the complexity and number of sequence chains increase, automated sequence documentation becomes highly beneficial. Sources of error in lifecycle documentation are eliminated and costs are saved. 

Benefits

• Automated reverse documentation of sequence controls or sequence chains (SFC)
• Current version status of the SFC documentation
• Direct link from the SFCs to the measuring point sheets
• SFC references in the measuring point sheets
• Increased plant security due to decreased error sources
• Prevention of multiple processing
• Paperless work and fast retrieval of information

Functions

• Reverse documentation of sequence chains with graphical edit mask and HTML output
• HTML presentation with sequence chain structure, actions and transitions
• Display of sequence controls of any complexity
• References to EMR loops with hyperlinks
• Availability of the plant documentation in the IT world and in SCADA systems
  (direct integration into the operating and monitoring stations possible)

Technologies

• Central database-driven plant documentation
• Generation of HTML documents for each SFC (sequence chain)
• References to other sequence controls with hyperlinks
• SFC reverse documentation of Freelance 2000, PCS 7 or Emerson Delta V
• Company-wide solution
