HMS Sequence Editor 5 (148)
3 HMS Sequence Editor
The HMS Sequence firmware provides an editor through which you can edit the program of the
PLC. The PLC program consists of two components. The diagram allows programming similar to
the well-known CFCs (Continuous Function Charts). Here you can connect the device's inputs and
outputs as well as variables through function blocks. The I/O mappings allow you to quickly map
inputs to outputs directly. It is also possible to use variables as inputs or outputs.
Fig. 1 Screenshot of the HMS Sequence editor
The image shows a screenshot of the HMS Sequence editor. It basically consists of three parts.
• At the top you will find a Toolbar.
• Below the toolbar there are the Diagram and the I/O Mapping. You can switch between
those two through the tabs at the top.
• At the bottom there is a Status Bar that shows information on the state of the PLC.
3.1 Toolbar
The toolbar of the HMS Sequence editor contains buttons that can be used to navigate to other
sites, to edit, load and store the diagram and the I/O mappings and to control the PLC.
In the following the buttons will be described in detail.
Closes the editor and opens the home page. See Home Page, p. 4.
Closes the editor and opens the settings page. See Settings, p. 26.
Closes the editor and opens the diagnostics page. See Diagnostics, p. 124.
Closes the editor and opens the update page. See Update, p. 127.
Loads the program (diagram and I/O mappings) from the PLC. Local changes will be
overwritten.
Saves the current local program (diagram and I/O mappings) to the PLC. If the PLC is currently
running, it will be stopped.

HMS Sequence Editor 6 (148)
Opens a dialog where you can edit the program settings. See Program Settings, p. 22.
Starts/stops the PLC. The PLC can only be started if a non-empty program (diagram and/or I/O
mappings) has been saved.
The following buttons are only available when the diagram tab is selected:
Starts/stops Live View, p. 24.
Shows/hides Processing Order. See Diagram, p. 7.
Opens a menu where you can select a unit type to be added to the diagram view.
See Diagram, p. 7.
Opens a menu where you can select inputs or outputs to be added to the diagram view. The
menu consists of several sub-menus for inputs/outputs, interfaces, devices and arrays. Note
that for arrays you can either insert an I/O array element by selecting the topmost entry from
the respective sub-menu or a plain I/O element representing just one value of the array by
selecting the corresponding index from the respective sub-menu. See Diagram, p. 7.
Opens a menu where you can select a portal variable to be added to the diagram view.
See Diagram, p. 7.
Adds a constant to the diagram view. See Diagram, p. 7.
The following buttons are only available when the I/O mapping tab is selected:
Opens a dialog through which you can add a new I/O mapping. See I/O Mapping, p. 21.
Opens a dialog through which you can edit a selected I/O mapping. See I/O Mapping, p. 21.
Deletes the selected diagram element or I/O mapping respectively.
Discards the whole diagram or all I/O mappings respectively.
Opens the help system in a new window.

3.2 Diagram
The function diagram is composed of up to 2048 units, local I/Os, variables and constants.
Elements are added to the diagram through the Toolbar. To select an element simply click on it.
The selection will be indicated through a blue shadow drawn around the element. By clicking
the Delete button in the toolbar or pressing the Delete key on your keyboard the selected
element can be deleted. To move an element on the diagram view drag it like shown in the
image below.
Fig. 2 Dragging an element on the diagram view
Each element has one or more ports through which it can be connected to other elements. Input
ports are displayed on the left side of the element, output ports on the right. Each port has one
of the following data types:
• Boolean [0..1]
• 8-bit unsigned integer [0..255]
• 8-bit signed integer [-128..127]
• 16-bit unsigned integer [0..65,535]
• 16-bit signed integer [-32,768..32,767
• 32-bit unsigned integer [0..4,294,967,295]
• 32-bit signed integer [-2,147,483,648..2,147,483,647]
• 32-bit floating point number
• 64-bit floating point number
• String (up to 4096 bytes)
Note that when data types are compared to each other, this will be done according to this
list. Boolean is considered the smallest data type, String is considered the greatest data type. If
ports with different data types are connected to each other, the value will be converted from the
output port's data type to the input port's data type implicitly. Note that this may lead to loss of
data. Open input ports are defined to have the value 0(Boolean data type). To negate a port,
double-click on it. The negation will be indicated through a bubble as can be seen in the image
below. The negation is performed logically. A value of 0will be negated to 1. A value unequal
to 0will be negated to 0. Negating a string will result in an empty string.

Fig. 3 An element with a negated output port
To connect an input port with an output port click on one of the ports, hold the mouse button
pressed, drag the appearing blue connector over the other port (See below) and then release the
mouse button. Note that one output port can be connected to several input ports. But it is not
possible to connect two input ports or two output ports with each other. Connectors can be
selected just like any other element. When selected they can be deleted by clicking
the Delete button in the toolbar or by pressing the Delete key on the keyboard.
Fig. 4 Connecting an input port with an output port
Some elements allow to dynamically add or delete ports. To do so, right-click on the element or
double-tap the element if touch functionality is supported. A pop-up menu will appear
(See below). Here you can add and delete ports. Note that there is a minimum and maximum
number of ports for each element. You can also jump to the help topic for the specific element
through this pop-up menu.
Fig. 5 Adding an input port to an Add Unit
The elements on the diagram are processed one after the other. To see the processing order,
click on the Processing order button on the toolbar. The HMS Hub editor will show the
processing order of each element in a small box in its upper right corner. The element with the
processing order number 0 is processed first. Click the same button again to hide the processing
order.
