ISPSoft User Manual You can use ISPSoft features and tools to set up configurations and parameters for DVP Series PLC and its entire system. For other series, you need to use HWCONFIG in ISPSoft to accomplish the same operation. The old HWCONFIGE does NOT have a unified interface for all the various PLC types but fortunately things are about to change. We have integrated the assorted interfaces and come up with a whole new version, HWCONFIG 4.0. Now the new HWCONFIG 4.0 is available for AS Series. We will continue to include all the other series in the near future. This chapter will introduce the steps and setups concerning configuration and parameter settings.
3.1 HWCONFIG 4.0 – Hardware Configuration Tool HWCONFIG is one of the tools in ISPSoft for hardware configuration. Its functions include configuration of module racks, parameter settings for modules, download/upload hardware parameters and simple on-line detection and diagnosis function. HWCONFIG 4.0 provides you with different display theme styles, light and dark. Here we use light theme for display examples. Refer to section 3.1.2.6 for more details on theme style settings. The settings will only be effective when the parameters are downloaded to the PLC CPUs. Make sure you download the configuration parameters to the PLC CPU after the setups are complete.
