Introduction
We are going to build Three CSD Templates that will be used later in the project.
1. Simple analog indicator
2. Simple digital indicator
3. Monitor only valve

Module Objective:
the student will be able to build a CSD Template from scratch.

Enabling Objectives:
The enabling objectives that support this module objective are as follows:
1. Create a CSD Template

CREATING A CSD TEMPLATE

ANALOG_IND Template
1. Invoke IACC.
2. Ensure that the Project Navigators System tab is open.
3. Expand System > Components > CSD Templates.
4. Create a new CSD Template by right-clicking CSD Templates and selecting New CSD
Template in the pop-up menu. A new name (e.g., CSD Template1) appears in the CSD
Templates list.
5. Change the new name to ANALOG_IND.
6. Open the CSD Editor.
7. Add AIN1 form Library to the CSD Editor.
8. Rename AIN12 component to IND.

Importing Database and Bulk Generate

1. Create a new taglist PROJECT.
2. Now we will import project database from excel engine into IACC. Ensure that tgalist
PROJECT is selected.
3. Choose FILE > Import > Import Taglist Agent. Press Next.
4. Choose you file type (text or DBF). Here we will use text tab delimited file.
5. Open your databse text file.
6. Select your created tag type PROJECT.
7. Select the taglist (PROJECT) you want to import your database in it.
8. Now, you are required to finish field mapping between excel database columns and tag type fields.
9. Finally, select all tags in excel DB to be imported in IACC. Then press START.
10. If you open PROJECT taglist you will find your excel database in it.
11. Now we will BULK GENERATE for ANALOG_IND tags only.
12. Right Click on PROJECT taglist, then select bulk generate.
13. Choose all loops of ANALOG_IND CST only. Press Next.
14. If you do not have any errors, Press Finish.
15. Go to Plant tab, you will find your Plant Area created with all ANALOG_IND loops.

Creating other Templates

The next part ia aiming to have a good practice on creating CSTs. finish as much as you can from it. if

do not finish it, you will continue what you did not finish at the end of the course when finish up your project.

DIGITAL_IND Template
1. Invoke IACC.
2. Ensure that the Project Navigators System tab is open.
3. Expand System > Components > CSD Templates.
4. Create a new CSD Template by right-clicking CSD Templates and selecting New CSD
Template in the pop-up menu. A new name (e.g., CSD Template1) appears in the CSD
Templates list.
5. Change the new name to DIGITAL_IND.
6. Open the CSD Editor.
7. Add CIN1 form Library( here you will make a new default CIN1 from CIN) to the CSD Editor.
8. Rename CIN12 component to IND.

MONITOR_VLV Template
1. Invoke IACC.
2. Ensure that the Project Navigators System tab is open.
3. Expand System > Components > CSD Templates.
4. Create a new CSD Template by right-clicking CSD Templates and selecting New CSD
Template in the pop-up menu. A new name (e.g., CSD Template1) appears in the CSD
Templates list.
5. Change the new name to MONITOR_VLV.
6. Open the CSD Editor.
7. Add two blocks CIN1 form Library to the CSD Editor.
8.

Rename CIN12 to XZC and CIN13 to XZO.

9.

Add one block GDEV1 from Library (here you will create a new default GDEV1 from GDEV)

10. Assign a name for GDEV12 using a dummy parameter in GDEV1 default holds XZO name.
Hint: the Limit switch open signal name is XZOxxxx, try to use a formula such that GDEV12 name is MONxxxx.

11. Add a LOGIC1 block (you will create a new default LOGIC1 from LOGIC).
12. Now, connect XZC CIN to BI01, XZO CIN to BI02 and BO01 to Autdsr of GDEV.
13. Assign a name to LOGIC12 block using the formula CNX_LOOKUP you learned.
Hint: the Limit switch open signal name is XZOxxxx, try to use a formula such that LOGIC12 name is XZYxxxx.

14. Now, edit the logic block steps for monitoring valve according to the following logic diagram.
Hint: Ask you instructor to explain the logic diagram for this logic.

XZO

YES

FF
XZC

O/P

O/P=
TRUE

BO01 = XZO

R
NO

BO01 = ~XZC
