155
156 Traditional recipe is composed of multiple groups of information with the same structure and different data. Due to the similarity of these information, you could edit them into a set of recipes to facilitate the transfer of data between HMI and PLC.
157
158 Data operation
159
160 1. **Read:** Read a group of data from the recipe file and assign the group of data to the set address.
161 1. **Write: **Read a group of data from the set address and assign the group of data to the corresponding recipe file.
162
163 PI Series HMI has Recipe function, Recipe function keeps data in the HMI, used to download the data from HMI to designated device addresses, or upload the data from device addresses to HMI.
164
165 The maximum number of group in recipe is 1000, and the maximum number of member in each group is 1500.
166
167 Recipe could store the data in USB flash disk and SD card and view the recipe data by object "Recipe display". It has two mode: simple mode and advanced mode.
168
169 1. **Simple: **Only support the data operation of one recipe file, including read and write.
170 1. **Advanced:** Support the data operation of multiple recipe files, including read, write, insert and index. View and select recipe file by object "File list".

181 * **Recipe Folder:** Give Recipe folder name (It can be used, when setting Recipe display object);
182 ** **✎Note: **Recipe Folder name can only consist of (0~~9), (a~~z), (A~~Z), ('_'), (' ') and other non-English characters;
183 * **Group: **Set the recipe group number, the number of elements, the data format. The data format has 8 modes: 16-bit signed decimal, 16-bit unsigned decimal, 16-bit BCD, 32-bit signed decimal, 32-bit unsigned decimal, 16-bit BCD, 32-bit floating point number, 64-bit (double-precision) floating-point number, string, and the choice of data integer and decimal places.
184 * **Elements:** It sets members' initial number of each group;
185 * **Data Format:** There are some formats can be supported in Recipe, like 16-bit BCD, 16-bit signed, 16-bit unsigned, 32-bit BCD, 32-bit signed, 32-bit unsigned, 32-bit floating and string. If each member requires different formats, please set it one by one in form;
186 * **Decimal: **It sets integer and scale digits;
187
188 **Mode Selection: **Select Simple or Advanced mode. Recipe file is divided into simple mode and advanced mode. Only in advanced mode can exist multiple recipe files used at the same time. (used wiht file list onject), Simple mode can only support a recipe file; Aadvanced mode can insert group information and reordered.
189
190 Function address: all operations are done through function addresses, different operating value is as follows:
191
192 * = 0: no operation;
193 * = 1: trigger read data;
194 * = 2: new trigger or update (If there is group number, it updates.)
195 * = 4: insert (only valid in advanced mode)
196 * = 8: delete (Delete according to the writing group number. If write and read address are consistent, refer to the reading group number);
197 * = 16: delete and sorted ((Delete according to the writing group number. If write and read address are consistent, refer to the reading group number)
198 * = 64: import CSV recipe file.
199
200 **Use Multiple File**
201
202 Check it to use more than one recipe file in HMI, but this option only valid in [Advanced mode];
203
204 **Select language**
205
206 The text in HMI can be in 8 languages, user can set language in here;
207
208 **Address**

210 1. **Group:** This address is for selecting group number;
211 1. **Start: **This is starting address is for reading and writing in recipe, PIStudio will automatically assigns addresses for each members;
212 1. **File(16 words): **This address only available when enable the Use Multiple File. This setting address is for input the recipe file's filename.
213
214 **Use Index**
215
216 If the value from Group address is changed, Read address will display the new data according to new group number immediately. Relatively, if the data of write address is changed, the corresponding group from table is also changed.
217
218 **Query by Element**
219
220 Enable it for querying group by specify element, select a primary key from all the elements, except the group number. This element value from all groups must be unique if want to set as primary key;

251 == Calling CSV recipe file ==
252
253 **Overview**
254
255 The recipe files used by the regular series HMI are in CSV format, and the recipe files used by the current series HMI are in database format. In order to be compatible with CSV format recipe files on the current series of HMI, please follow the instruction when using it.
256
257 **Operations**
258
259 Create the recipe as it is configured. The default recipe file name is “1. rcp2”, which is placed in folder 123, as shown in the following figure.
260

266
267 2. Place a "Recipe Record Display" object and a "File List" object on the project screen for viewing the recipe files in the folder 123, and the address configuration in the object should be consistent with the above configuration.
268
269 (% style="text-align:center" %)
270 [[image:image-20220806100753-3.jpeg]]
271
272 By configuring the address in the table and combining the recipe function, the CSV recipe files of regular series are imported.
273
274 |=Address range|=Object type|=Address function
275 |HSW1050 to 1065|Text input object|Enter the CSV recipe file name to import

289 |HSW242|Numerical input object|Returns the results of the csv import:(((
290 * = 37: CSV file imported successfully
291 * = 38: CSV file import failed
292 )))
293
294 **Select CSV recipe file (take U disk as an example):**
295
296 Using the file list object, select the recipe file in the U disk by path, and configure the recipe file name address directly to the special address HSW1050 in the above table, which can directly detect the CSV file in the U disk; Select the recipe file in the file list, and write the selected recipe file name into the recipe file name: In HSW1050 to 1065.
297
298 Use the special address of the above table to configure the path of the CSV file: HSW106, configure recipe file name: HSW1050 to1065
299
300 Use HSW1066 address to select the corresponding CSV recipe file type.
301
302 * HSW1066 = 0: Import a user-defined CSV recipe file (all data in the custom CSV file must be valid);

306
307 * HSW1066=1: Import the normal recipe file of regular series HMI (the data in line 1 of the file is invalid);
308
309 The data in line 1 of the normal recipe file is used to define the format of the recipe and will not be imported into the recipe table as recipe information, **but you must ensure that the data in line 1 representing the elements and number of groups is correct, otherwise the CSV recipe file will fail to be imported.**
310
311 (% style="text-align:center" %)
312 [[image:image-20220806101520-6.jpeg]]
313
314 * HSW1066=2: Import the special recipe file of regular series HMI (the data in line 1, 2 and column 1 of the file are invalid);
315
316 In the special recipe file, line 1 is used to define the format of the recipe, line 2 is used to define the element name of the recipe, and column 1 is used to define the group name of the recipe, so lines 1, 2 and column 1 of the special recipe will not be imported into the recipe table as recipe information. **During use, ensure that the data such as the number of groups and elements representing the recipe format in the first line are correct, otherwise the import of the CSV recipe file will fail.**
317
318 (% style="text-align:center" %)
319 [[image:image-20220806102610-7.jpeg]]
320
321 **Perform import**
322
323 After configuring the saving path of CSV recipe file, the name of recipe file and the type of recipe according to the above steps, the method of transferring CSV file to DB file is as follows:
324
325 * Configure the DB recipe file name by text input object: HDW500 = 3 (recipe file configured in Figure 1),
326 * Set the recipe function address to: HDW1000 = 64 (the function address configured in Figure 1),
327 * Transform the CSV recipe file in U disk into DB recipe file with file name “3.rcp2”.
328
329 **DB recipe file for storing CSV data:**
330
331 Simple mode: When the recipe file is set to simple mode, the file of CSV data is saved as the DB recipe file of 1. rcp2 by default.
332
333 Advanced mode: When the recipe is enabled in advanced mode (multi-file recipe), the imported CSV file data is saved to the file recorded at the recipe file address HDW500 (the address configured in Figure 1).
334
335 **Import results:**
336
337 * HSW242 = 37: Import succeeded;
338 * HSW242 = 38: Import failed.
339
340 **Precautions:**
341
342 * Ensure that the data format of each element in the CSV file is the same as the recipe data format set in the software (DB), and ensure that the elements of each row in the valid data area is the same as the elements set in the software (DB);
343 * When the elements of a line in CSV file is more than the elements set in the software (DB), it will prompt the import failure;
344 * When the CSV file imported into the regular series HMI is a recipe file, the data representing the recipe format (elements, number of groups, whether it is a special recipe) in line 1 must be correct, otherwise the import of CSV file will fail.

419 The recipe index address RPW is mainly used for editing traditional recipes, and it is more convenient to modify the data and display of recipes. Only need to modify and display the data of the recipe file through "Numeric Input/Display" Object and "Word Switch".
420
421 The recipe index area (RPW)'s instruction as follows:
422
423 1. RPW~*~*~#~#~#~#, a total of six digits, the first two ~*~* represent the Recipe group number, ~#~#~#~# represents the element order number. For example, RPW010000 indicates the 1st element of the Recipe group No.1, and RPW110002 indicates the 3rd element of the Recipe group No.11.
424 1. If the indexed group number or element number does not exist, the value of RPW defaults to zero. For example, RPW110011 represents the 12th element of the Recipe group No.11. If it does not exist, the value returned by accessing RPW110011 is zero. The value written in RPW110011 will not be saved to the recipe file.
425
426 * **✎Note**: As long as RPW~*~*~#~#~#~# exists, any object "writes" to HPW~*~*~#~#~#~# will be saved to the recipe file. 
427
428 (% start="3" %)
429 1. The RPW register only supports word address access.
430 1. It can be known from the coding method of RPW~*~*~#~#~#~# that the range of RPW is from RPW000000-RPW990450, wherein the range of group number is 0-100, and the range of element is 0-450.
431
432 == Recipe example ==

901
902 **Introduction**
903
904 Cloud function is available for following models: the ig series and 8000/9000 series with -R after system upgrade
905
906 You may configure the basic settings of Cloud functions, tags, and User MQTT according to your needs. (If the device supports the Cloud function, you can use the function and configure the tags after checking the box to enable it, or upload the data to the 3rd party server.)
907
908 Click "Project"-"[[image:hh_B4H5OuNT87.png||height="29" width="30"]]Cloud" in the upper left corner of the software, as shown in the following figure.

911 [[image:云配置1.png||height="494" width="750" class="img-thumbnail"]]
912
913 **(1) Enable**
914
915 If the HMI supports the Cloud function, check it to enable the Cloud function, and it will collect the real-time data from HMI upload to the Cloud. The number of data collection is limited, and the specific parameters are as follows:
916
917 |=Series|=Monitoring Tags|=Alarm Record|=Data Record|=OpenCloud Data
918 |8000-R|300|200|100|1000
919 |9000-R|300|200|100|1000
920 |3000ig|100|20|50|500
921 |8000ig|300|200|100|1000
922
923 For example:
924
925 * In 3000ig's Cloud, the monitoring tags upload to the Cloud in real time is limited to 100.
926 * For 3000ig's Alarm, the Alarm records of word alarms and bit alarms upload to Cloud is limited to 20. (See [["Alarm">>http://docs.we-con.com.cn/wiki/pistudio/view/Helps/08.Basic%20Function/#HAlarm]] for details).
927 * For 3000ig's Data record, the Data records upload to Cloud is limited to 50. (For details, please refer to [["Data Record">>http://docs.we-con.com.cn/wiki/pistudio/view/Helps/08.Basic%20Function/#HDataRecord]]).
928
929 **(2) Server Selection**
930
931 **Server**: China, ASEAN, and Europe.
932
933 **Password**:
934
935 1. If the HMI is not bound, this access password will be updated and downloaded into the HMI screen simultaneously.
936 1. If the HMI is bound, this access password in the project cannot effectively change the binding password of the device, and it can only be changed through V-NET.
937
938 **(3) Upload Selection**: 
939
940 To upload the data collected by HMI to the cloud or a to the third-party server, only one upload method can be selected.
941
942 1. **to Cloud**: All the configured tags, data records, and alarm records would be pushed to V-NET.
943 1. **to User MQTT**: All the configured tags, data records, and alarm records would be pushed to to the third-party server, and the relevant Lua function calls please refer to "[[Cloud interface>>http://docs.we-con.com.cn/wiki/pistudio/view/Helps/10.Lua/#HCloudInterface]]".
944
945 After the "to User MQTT" is checked. The tags, data records, and alarms cannot be viewed on V-NET, but the device can be bound to V-NET and remote monitoring the device screen normally.
946
947 **4) Low Data Mode setting**
948
949 1. When you check the "low Data Mod" by default on new tags, the newly added tags will be enabled in Low Data Mode by default.
950 1. The longer the refresh interval, the slower the data upload, and the more traffic data will be saved. This function is only used for the control of tags.
