In the overview all sequences of the corresponding hardware zone are displayed. Each sequence has its own information window, in which the current step, the status (operating mode, alarm) and the timeout are displayed.
The warning sign 
symbolizes a timeout, a single step and the EOC mode, it indicates that manual intervention is required.
HMI
Sequence status lamps
Green: The sequence is running in automatic mode.
Red: The sequence has a fault.
Gray: Manual mode is active .
Hardware zone control
Lamp test
The lamp test is a standard function and the function of the lamps is checked when the lamp test is carried out. After the button has been clicked, all status lamps used in the sequences (Automatic Lamp, Saftey Gate Lamp, Emergency Stop Lamp and EOC reached Lamp) should light up.
The lamp test can be carried out at the Hardware Zone level and the Plant level. At the Plant level, all lamps light up.
Operating mode Selection
Automatic Mode
Automatic mode refers to an operating state in which a system, machine, or device operates automatically without requiring human intervention or control. In Automatic Mode, the system executes preprogrammed sequences, processes, or sequences independently, based on preset parameters, algorithms, or rules. This automates tasks and completes them efficiently without the need for continuous human supervision or intervention.
The green bar indicates that automatic mode has been activated. In this mode, the system operates independently according to preset parameters or rules.
The gray bar indicates that the manual mode has been selected. In this mode, the machine or function can be controlled manually by human intervention.
Automatic Release
The "Automatic Release" button enables the release of the "Automatic" mode. When this button is pressed for at least 3 seconds (Adjustable time), the system is set to Automatic mode, which enables it to operate automatically and independently. In this mode, the system executes predefined sequences, sequences or functions without the need for continuous user intervention or instructions.
EOC mode
By activating the "End of Cycle" mode, the sequences are executed until the EOC step and then the automatic operation is stopped.
Hardware zone status lamps
Any sequences ready to start
Indicates whether a sequence in the hardware zone is ready to start automatic operation.
All sequences ready to start
Indicates whether all sequences in the hardware zone are ready to start automatic operation.
Automatic Lamp
Flashing indicates that at least one sequence is ready to start.
Continuous light indicates that the automatic mode is active.
Safety Gate Lamp
The Safety Gate Lamp indicates whether the Safety Gate switch is activated.
Emergency Stop Lamp
The Emergency Stop Lamp signals whether an emergency stop is activated.
EOC reached Lamp
The EOC-reached lamp flashes when the EOC mode has been activated.
If the EOC-reached lamp is permanently on, it means that all sequences in the hardware zone have reached the EOC step.
