General Purpose Library for Aveva System Platform (OMI) 2020
General Purpose Library for Aveva System Platform (OMI) 2020
Features
Value Proposition
Reduced engineering and deployment time & cost
Seamless device integration & management using Libraries
Advanced diagnostics capabilities
Equipment maintenance information to help quick decision making
Supported Functions
The General Purpose Library provides core control and visualization functions for your automation system.
It includes:
Process Modules

• Control Modules (Motors, Valves)
• Continuous Control (PID, Rate, Internal Model)
• Calculations (Analog, Digital, Pulse Width, Split Range, Step3)
• Sequential Control (Sequence, Batch (inBatch Phase), Equipment)
Communications modules
• Modbus Serial
• Modbus Ethernet
• Ethernet IP
• Profibus
Device Integration
• TesysT, TesysU
• Altistart
• Altivar
Power Devices
• SEPAM
• Masterpact, Compact, Masterpact MTZ
• Accusine
• UPS
• Power Meters
Controller Diagnostics
• Modicon M340
• Modicon M580
High Performance Template
GPL templates are developed with reduced Resource that helps to reduce app engine scan time and improve performance or reduce number of app engines required.
Reduced Resources
-
Resource reductions will reduce app engine scan time and improve performance or reduce number of app engines required.
Scan Rate Reductions
-
IO performance is determined by the speed of scans to read the data from the controller, update the database and inform the HMI.
-
Scan rate reductions will provide a proportional impact (until IO becomes the limiting variable)
Customization
GPL templates are developed with capability to customize them easily. User can Customize the Text for various caption and labels easily.
![Customization]()
Instance Text Customization
-
Within the controller we use common blocks because there is no benefit to have multiple blocks. DEVCTL is used for a motor and a valve. The operator however wants a UI which is specific to the application in which they are working
MOTOR2 is Forward/Reverse or Fast/Slow.
The user is now able to customize the text displayed for each instance of the control module to ensure that the operator gets the status and commands the control module with accuracy.
Interface / Label Customization
-
Override Inputs
The “Simulation” name has been changed to “Input Override” to make the impact of simulation clearer to the operator.
The current value (of the input) is displayed in the Input Value while the override is active.
Opportunity
Reduced cost to be more competitive against competition
System Sales by including more Schneider Product in a solution bundle by leveraging library’s integration capability
Auto Binding IO Address
Templates are designed to support both OPC UA and OFS DA Communication Protocol. Hence binding for GPL Templates are Intended to be used along with "EcoStruxure Control Expert - Asset Link" to perform "Binding" of IO Address based on OPC UA or OPC DA Protocol selected.
Process & Device Templates
Wide Range of Ready to use Process & Device Templates
Process Templates
Digital Input & Output, Analog Input & Output, Multiple Analog Selector
Motors: Single, Dual Direction, Variable Speed
Valves: Valves, Control Valves, Motorised Valves
