Define a new operation on a running station
From PlcWiki
The standard general way how to do it, is the following:
- For [Rack]PartCheck operations define their records in PartDistribution.cfg.
- Define an operation in plan...cfg and set its plan to : 0 (not requested).
- Prepare a new configuration in a local configuration file on a station, set its ToleranceOverPlan = 1.
- Wait when the "new" products (after a saved change in plan...cfg) will come to the station (with defined plan for this operation set to 0).
- Reloead a new configuration of a client. The operation is not requested (plan = 0), but is enabled (ToleranceOverPlan = 1). So you can test it.
- When the operation is working properly, set the plan in plan...cfg file to a requested count.
- When these "new" products (after the plan requested change in plan...cfg) come to the station, set a local parameter ToleranceOverPlan = 0. Then the operation will be enabled only when it is requested.
- Insert a record for this operation to an SQL table plc.operation.
