Write Enable Bit Parameter

About this task

The default behavior of the HMI for CNC product is to check the Parameter Write Enable (PWE) bit before allowing CIMPLICITY to write any points that are configured to access the CNC parameter table.

You can override the default behavior and allow CIMPLICITY software to always write to the parameter table through the global parameter DC_CHECK_PWE.

Procedure

  1. Stop the CIMPLICITY project if it is running.
  2. Do the following.
    A Expand the Advanced folder in the Workbench left pane.
    B Expand the Global Parameters folder.
    C Select Project
    D Change the valueof the appropriate global parameter to N as follows
    Single controllers DC_CHECK_PWE
    Dual path controllers One of the following:
    • DC_CHECK_PWE
    • DC_CHECK_PWE2
    Multi-path controllers One of the following:
    • DC_CHECK_PWE
    • DC_CHECK_PWE2
    • DC_CHECK_PWE<n>
    Where n = 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10
  3. Click the Run button on the Workbench toolbar to restart the project.
  4. Update the project configuration files when prompted.
