Click this application tool button to view a list of Most Recently Used PKS Projects or browse for an existing PKS XML Project. Click the Browse for PKS XML Project to browse for a folder path that contains exported PKS XML configuration files. If this is the first time a PKS XML project is being viewed, you must first click the Parse button located in the Data View tab to parse the exported XML configuration files to a Configuration Asset Model. This Asset Model is used by Control Architect to navigate your PKS configuration project entities and relationships.
When a new XML folder path is browsed, the folder path is saved at the top of a MRU list. This MRU (Most Recently Used) list maintains a user specified number of last used items.
You can choose to remove an existing item from the MRU list or toggle the Pinned status of an item by right mouse-clicking to display a context menu and choosing to remove the item or toggle the pinned status.
Click this application tool button to invoke the Import tool. This tool allows you to convert Honeywell Exception Build (EB), Honeywell FSC (SM), and Quick Builder SCADA export files to XML configuration files that are an abstraction of a PKS XML Configuration schema. LCN and SCADA entities are generated as a simple Control Module with a single embedded Function Block where the embedded Function Block represents the original entity. The generated Function Block contains visible block parameters and pin connections. Connection relationships (including CL entity/parameter and Equipment List Template usage), Control Graph (Control Strategy View), Visual Peer analysis, and Policy Cop validation are supported with the new converted types.
FSC Excel export files are imported by creating a Control Module that represents the FSC FLD with embedded FSC and COM Input/Output blocks that show connection relationships between HMIWeb graphics, other CEE CDA reference blocks and FSC FLD-to-FLD Controller Peer references.
