AVEVA Batch Management Graphic Faceplates

Along with the AVEVA Batch Management Application object packages (.aaPkg), the AVEVA Batch Management installation program also installs an InBatchGraphics.aaPkg file. You can import this file into an ArchestrA Galaxy and use to help visualize the AVEVA Batch Management Process Model equipment and phases. The package file is installed as part of the Components for ArchestrA IDE feature and is located in the ...\Program Files\AVEVA\Batch Management\AppObjects directory. After you import the InBatchGraphics.aaPkg file, the following symbols are available under the InBatch Graphic Toolset.

• InBatchUnit - faceplate symbol to visualize AVEVA Batch Management Units

• InBatchConnection - faceplate symbol to visualize AVEVA Batch Management Connections

• InBatchPhase - faceplate symbol to visualize AVEVA Batch Management Phases and Parameters

  • InBatchParameter - building-block symbol used by the InBatchPhase symbol

• InBatchSegment - faceplate symbol to visualize AVEVA Batch Management Segments

If you import the InBatchGraphics.aaPkg file, you will also need to import the InBatchObjectSupport.dll script library. This library is installed in the same directory as the InBatchGraphics.aaPkg file and can be imported into the Galaxy using the ArchestrA IDE. To import the library, on the Galaxy menu, point to Import, and then click Script Function Library.

The graphic symbols are meant to serve as a starting example that will almost always need to be customized. For example, only the first three parameters are shown in the Phase faceplate. Parameters also show only the target and actual values.

The graphics symbols can be used directly in the AVEVA Batch Management ApplicationObjects (using the Graphics tab in the ApplicationObject editor) or as components to new graphic symbols. In the case of the latter, the symbol can be connected to a AVEVA Batch Management ApplicationObject dynamically using the "OwningObject" attribute.
