We are pleased to welcome you on board to your TeSys island video learning journey.
This video is dedicated to the TeSys island configurator, part of EcoStruxure motor control configurator.
Here are the 2 main learning sequences.
Let’s define what TeSys island configurator is, and its main functions.
Start the TeSys island end-to-end digital customer experience with TeSys island configurator.
Access the "TeSys island configurator"
through the global website "EcoStruxure Motor Control Configurator".
The "TeSys island" configurator allows the user to select and configure "TeSys Avatars",
... generate the Island\u0027s topology,
... and the Bill of Materials for easy quotations and ordering.
The Bill of Materials includes circuit breakers and accessories.
It is possible to display the configuration in 3D viewer
and export the model in different file formats such as DXF
Once in the configurator, the user can access "TeSys island" documentation such as:
instruction manuals,
wiring diagrams,
e-plans, CAD files,
product data sheet, and so on…
The configuration can be exported to the TeSys island engineering tool...
...EcoStruxure Machine Expert or SoMove,
to continue the customer\u0027s digital journey...
for programming and commissioning.
Now, let\u0027s discover the customer value propositions of the TeSys island configurator.
Let’s take the example of this booster pumping machine.
Adapt the configurator to your local needs, “metric or imperial” and start your configuration.
The configuration is based on 2 main steps:
define the island\u0027s environment,
choose and configure TeSys avatars.
Step 1:
Name your configuration.
Define the island environment, such as:
power supply voltage,
cabinet space and orientation,
communication protocol,
ambient temperature.
Derating is automatically calculated when Ambient temperature is above 50°C
and/or vertical orientation are selected.
At this step, you have to decide whether you need "energy monitoring",
to allow you to get information on energy consumption at the load level.
The bus coupler is now defined, and potentially the voltage interface module
if you have checked "Energy monitoring".
Step 2 relies mainly on the predefined TeSys avatar library,
saving time in reviewing catalogues to build and size the starters.
Without high electromechanical skills,
you can easily and very quickly configure the island.
Focus on the function!
Select the TeSys avatar according to the load,
or the application.
Define the settings according to the characteristics of the application.
Set the number of process variable inputs.
They receive analog values from sensors such as pressure, flow or vibrations meters.
Set the number of process variable switches which receive signal from switches,
such as float or proximity switches.
Copy the avatar in case of similar loads or applications.
To monitor and control this motor with variable speed drive…
...select the "power interface with IO" avatar.
Drag and drop it.
The topology is built and updated in real time.
Focus now on this motor.
The configurator checks that the number of modules,
the width of the island, and the control power consumption are compliant with the TeSys island specifications.
The Bill of Materials is automatically populated
with the appropriate devices.
It includes accessories and circuit breakers.
Let\u0027s focus on the integration into a functional safety group called SIL group.
A SIL group is made up of one or more SIL application, load, or device avatars.
Choose the SIL avatar according to the applicational needs,
with wiring category one / two or three / four to meet the safety requirements.
The on-line TeSys configurator tool can also manage SIL groups.
Let\u0027s replace the 3 pump avatars by SIL stop motor avatars.
By default, the SIL stop motor avatars,
the SIL stop switch and the SIL interface module belong to the same SIL group.
Only one SIL interface Module per group is required.
If you need to manage separately each avatar, then you can create new SIL groups.
Now, there are 4 different groups.
The physical view and the BOM are updated with one SIL interface Module per group.
It is possible to remove a SIL group.
When moving an avatar,
the configurator may ask you which group the avatar should be assigned to.
The SIL interface module is always placed at the right of the group.
Now, let’s go back to our initial configuration!
Once the configuration is complete, save it.
It is sent by e-mail for later modification.
The e-mail provides you with the BOM of the configuration, the ID to retrieve it…
...and a direct link to modify it.
Add it to "My Products" list to get the price lists.
In one click, you can:
Export the BOM for a later quotation and order,
Export the configuration for later use into engineering tools.
The configuration can be imported into SoMove
for protection and alarm settings.
The configuration can also be imported into EcoStruxure Machine Expert settings
and direct integration into the PLC program.
Access the 3D model viewer.
You can display the dimensions, and different views of the island.
You can also export the configuration in various 3D file formats.
Access any related documentation, such as:
instruction manuals,
wiring diagrams,
plans,
CAD files,
product data sheets, and so on...
