How to dump PC source code with DUPCS or source code handling

Hello,

I have a DSPC 172 CPU in a ABB Master DCS system with MasterAid2220 and QMP260 software. I prepared a "new test CPU" with one PROM and two RWM memory boards and assembled them to have a CPU testbed. I tayped the command DUDBS and saved database file with extension .BA But when I typed the DUPCS to get .AA PC elements, an error occured that said there is no PC source code on the CPU. I tried to DUMP "PC program" with another way in 8th menu "Source Code Handling" environment instead of 7th menu that contains dump data base source code and dump PC source code in its submenus.

1-What is the reason of the errors with DUPCS or dump PC source code ?

2-How it is possible that database (.BA) source codefiles are available but PC (.AA) source code files are not?

Thanks alot.

My mail is mojtabasadeghi44@yahoo.com

Regards,

Mojtaba

Did you load or create a pc program? Otherwise you have an empty cpu with only a database in it. What is the output if you type LSS in the online builder.

No, Is it necessory to do any thing else like DataSet dimensionong or memory allocation in our DSPC 172 CPU befor TRPCS command and loading any program on CPU?

in an empty cpu you need to dimension with dimdb and dimpc. after that you can create a program or load database an program with trdbs and trpcs.

1-about our test system :If our spare CPU (that now is our test set ) is empty so how it's DUDBS works but it's DUPCS doed not work?

2- about our real system : In our CPUs in the line when I select 8th item in the COF (source code handling) and select the item "dump PC program" the source code created on the SRCE Folder of the related node have extensions like ".AO" , ".ID" instead of ".AA" and CBA software does n't know it. What is the reason and the solution?

3- I tried to do that with 7th "dumped database pc source ". But it did n't work and it returned to the main menu. do you know the reason?

1 you always have a database, it get's created on system startup, it contai's databse base items for standard hardware.
2 I don't know what you mean by this
3 I'm not aware of menus.

In the factory a set of CPUs in MB300 nttwork in MasterPiece 200/1 system are working (called "real system" by me) and controling the product line. For test I prepared a single CPU rack with it's related cards and equipments called “test system by me”. In the above post my 2nd and 3rd question is about the reason of error in dumping PC source code in the CPUs . we have an environment called Command Oriented Function (COF) that we can do that with selecting menus and without typing any command in MS-DOS. In COF there is two ways to do that.

1st is in choosing "Source Code Handling" menu (8th item in COF) & then choosing "DUMP PC program". This leads to files with ".AO" and ".ID" extensions
that are unknown with CBA 1.3 as a PC source code.

2nd is choosing "DUMP and LOAD PC and DB source code" (7th item in COF) and then choosing "DUMP PC SOURCE CODE" menu. But this way leads to error and never works.
Now I am forced to type “DUPCS PC1;L“ for all segments “one by one” and it takes a lot of time. I wanna use above two ways to do that simply “in one step” but each way has it’s problem.
1-Could you help me about it please?
2-Is it possible that errors in opening DB and PC files with “Function Chart Builder 6.3/1” and “AMPL PC and DB Element Libraries 3.3/0” originates from this method of dumping PC “one by one” ?
