πŸ”· Commissioning (IBN) with Selmo

Inputs – What is needed – What is done – What is the result


πŸ”Ή 1. Inputs – What is needed?

Category
Description

Finished, exported control model

PLCOpen XML imported, control code loaded into PLC

HMI project created and loaded

HMI generated from Selmo model, connected to control

Hardware commissioned

Sensors, actuators, communication are available

Signal verification completed

Feedback of all inputs/outputs checked with real wiring

Commissioning checklist / release criteria

Specifications for tests, safety functions, operator logic

Test parameters

Times, repetitions, HMI approvals for step operation etc.


πŸ”Ή 2. What is done? (Activities during commissioning)

Step
Description

Test automatic release

Check behavior when automatic release button is pressed

Run through states (sequence)

Observe and log state changes in automatic mode

Test manual operation (MXIC)

Each state is triggered individually, manual movement is checked

Simulate error messages (i, CMZ)

Deliberately trigger interlock and CMZ functions and validate response

Check operator guidance (S-behavior)

Expected operator actions and HMI texts in automatic mode

Visualize signal status

Real-time tracking via HMI: states, signal status, diagnostics

Test limits and parameters

Check all parameterized values for correctness and effectiveness

Test sequence cross (if present)

Validate transitions between sequences


πŸ”Ή 3. Outputs – What is the result of the commissioning?

Result
Description

βœ… Validated model execution

All states, zones, signals behave as defined in the model

βœ… Safe manual and automatic function

Controlled and secured behavior in all operating modes

βœ… Error handling works

Interlock deviations and safety functions act correctly

βœ… Operator guidance correctly visible

HMI reliably displays states, prompts, messages

βœ… Parameters checked and adjusted

All process-relevant values are aligned

βœ… Commissioning documentation complete

All tests, releases and acceptances documented traceably


🧩 Conclusion:

Commissioning in Selmo is not "trial and error", but a model-based proof, that the machine does what was specified in the model.

➑️ The model is the reference – the PLC executes it.
