# CI-Eng-Sample
|
||
|
||
A small, invented sample project that anyone with this repo can load into a CI Server
|
||
**R1.03** test system. Skills use its names in their examples, and every skill task is
|
||
re-tested against it so that no other project is needed.
|
||
|
||
Built and tested on CI Server R1.03.00 (unlicensed test system), 2026-09-30.
|
||
|
||
## Load and remove
|
||
|
||
Test systems only: loading writes to the CI Server database. CI Server must be running.
|
||
From an elevated prompt, call the scripts by full path (a bare `load.cmd` may not be found
|
||
from the current folder):
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
cmd /c "<repo>\examples\CI-Eng-Sample\load.cmd"
|
||
cmd /c "<repo>\examples\CI-Eng-Sample\remove.cmd"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
- Each step prints a summary and writes a `.qlo` listing; check that `Errors` is 0.
|
||
- **Restart CI Server after loading** (stop, then start the CI Service): a new storage group
|
||
stores no history until CI Server restarts.
|
||
- `load.cmd` on a system that already has the project reports `Exists` and changes nothing.
|
||
- `remove.cmd` takes about 1½ minutes: a storage group can only be deleted after its stop time
|
||
has passed, so the script sets a stop time one minute ahead and waits. Removing the group
|
||
also deletes its history.

|
||
| `CIENG_UA` | OPC UA station | `opc.tcp://localhost:34493`, Basic256Sha256 / SignAndEncrypt, anonymous; subscription `CIENG_SUB` (1 s); points `LEVEL`, `SRV_STATE` |

Items created by objects (`TANK1.CALC.VOLUME`, `TANK1.JFLOW.sPerMin`) and their sections are
|
||
deleted with the objects; they are not in `02_item_df.qli`.
|
||
|
||
All items except `PLC1.*` are internal (no station). The `PLC1` station talks to CI Server's own Modbus slave mirror (see below), so no PLC is needed either.
|
||
New items start with status 13 (`NOT INIT`) until a value is written.
|
||
|
||
## Files
|
||
|
||
| File | Purpose |

|
||
| `05_trigger_df.qli`, `06_class_df.qli`, `07_object_df.qli` | Trigger group; classes (source in the `METHOD` memo, `@"` … `"@`, `COMPILE` 1; Traditional and Java); objects (`ATTR_VALUE_1` = prompt answer) |

|
||
| `12_opc_visible_df.qli` | OPC visible / read flags (loaded with `dssqld -m`) |
|
||
| `13_opcua_line_df.qli`, `14_opcua_station_df.qli`, `15_item_opcua_df.qli` | OPC UA client line; station, subscription, points; connected items |

|
||
| `17_printer_df.tpl`, `17_printer_df.ps1` | Report file device and destination; the script fills in this system's node name and `%TLS_LST_PATH%` and writes `17_printer_df.qli` (not in the repo) |

|
||
| `76_`…`93_remove_*.qli` | Names to delete, in reverse order (reports and printer `83`/`84` first, alarm definitions last, `93`) |
|
||
| `load.cmd`, `remove.cmd` | Run the steps in the right order |
|
||
| `displays/CIENG_Tank.xml` | Display (HTML mode): title, number field on `TANK1.LEVEL`, alarm overview, trend of `TANK1.LEVEL`, button *Operator layout* |
|
||
| `displays/CIENG_Menu.xml` | Navigation display (200 x 700): *Tank 1*, *Current Alarm* (main frame), *Tank 1 popup* (layout `popup`) |
|
||
| `layouts/CIENG_Operator.xml`, `layouts/layout.ps1` | Operator layout block and the script that adds/removes it in `Layouts.xml` |
|
||
| `displays/deploy_displays.cmd`, `remove_displays.cmd` | Copy the displays into the operator interface and export their HTML versions / delete them |
|
||
| `monitoring/*.sup.txt` | Setup-file lines for the monitoring processes (not applied by `load.cmd`) |
|
||
|
||
## Modbus slave mirror (for station CIENG_PLC)
|
||
|
||
`CIENG_PLC` reads and writes CI Server's own Modbus slave: `eqpmdcmem` (slave memory) and
|
||
`eqpmdcslvtcp` (Modbus TCP on port 5020). Without them the station reports bad communication
|
||
(`COMM_OK` = 0) but everything loads. To start them with CI Server, an administrator copies
|
||
`equipment/eqpciengslv_start.cmd` and `eqpciengslv_stop.cmd` to `%TLS_ROOT_PATH%\tls\com`;
|
||
for a quick test they can also be started by hand from a normal prompt:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
start eqpmdcmem -n EQPMDCMEM
|
||
start eqpmdcslvtcp -n EQPMDCSLVTCP -p 5020
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Remove the two files from `tls\com` when the sample is removed. See skill `equipment`, task
|
||
`modbus-station.md`.
|
||
|
||
## OPC UA loopback (station CIENG_UA)
|
||
|
||
`CIENG_UA` is CI Server's OPC UA client connected to CI Server's own OPC UA server, so no
|
||
external server is needed. The **first** connection on a system needs a one-time certificate
|
||
exchange, done by the user (skill `data-access`, task `opcua-client.md` §4):
|
||
|
||
1. After loading, the client logs `OPXC-E-CER_NO_TRU`; trust the server certificate in
|
||
`%TLS_ALLUSERS_PATH%\pki\opxuac\pkiclient\rejected` (Engineering Module, or move it to
|
||
`…\pkiclient\trusted\certs`).
|
||
2. The server then rejects the client; move `CI_SERVER_OPCUA_CLIENT_OPXCIENG […].der` from
|
||
`%TLS_ALLUSERS_PATH%\pki\opxuas\pkiserver\rejected` to `…\pkiserver\trusted\certs`
|
||
(PowerShell: `Move-Item -LiteralPath`, the name contains brackets).
|
||
|
||
Then `UA.COMM_OK` = 1 and `UA.LEVEL_COPY` follows `TANK1.LEVEL`. The trust is kept when the
|
||
sample is removed and loaded again.
|
||
|
||
## Alarms (TANK1.LEVEL)
|
||
|
||
`TANK1.LEVEL` raises HIGH above 80 (Alarm 2, priority 2) and HIGH HIGH above 90 (Alarm 3,
|
||
priority 1). To try it on a test system: `itmval -p -n CI-Eng-Sample.TANK1.LEVEL -v 85`, export
|
||
`ALARM_CURRENT` (filter on `ITEM_NAME`), acknowledge with `dssqld -m` on `ALARM_CURRENT`
|
||
(`NAME`, `ACK` 1), write the level back below 80. See skill `alarm-management`, task
|
||
`item-alarming.md`.
|
||
|
||
## Displays and layout (optional)
|
||
|
||
No admin rights needed. After `load.cmd`:
|
||
|
||
1. `displays\deploy_displays.cmd` copies `CIENG_Tank` and `CIENG_Menu` into the operator
|
||
interface and creates their HTML versions.
|
||
2. `powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File layouts\layout.ps1` adds the layout
|
||
`CIENG_Operator` to `Layouts.xml` (first run saves `Layouts-before-CIENG.xml`).
|
||
**Restart the Operator Interface** afterwards: it reads the layouts only at start.
|
||
3. Operator Interface (desktop): open `CIENG_Tank` from the display box and click
|
||
**Operator layout** - a second window opens with the sample menu (File / View / Displays),
|
||
toolbar, `CIENG_Menu` on the left, `CIENG_Tank` in the main frame `default` and the alarm
|
||
banner. HTML display (web): `http://localhost:8080/mobileoperator/?d=CIENG_Tank&l=CIENG_Operator`
|
||
(CI Server login).
|
||
|
||
Remove: `layouts\layout.ps1 -Remove` (restores the file exactly) and
|
||
`displays\remove_displays.cmd`. Close the displays in the Edit Module first. See skill
|
||
`graphics`.
|
||
|
||
## Monitoring processes (optional)
|
||
|
||
`monitoring/` holds the lines to add to the setup files in `%TLS_ROOT_PATH%\tls\sup\` so that
|
||
`intcpumon`, `intdskmon`, `inttcpmon`, `intmon` and `intspawn` write into the `SYSTEM` items.
|
||
These change the system's own setup files: back the files up first and restore them after
|
||
testing. See the `system-management` skill, task `monitoring-processes.md`.
|
||
|
||
## Reports
|
||
|
||
No admin rights needed. `load.cmd` creates the device, destination and three reports; each report
|
||
gets its own storage group of type *Report*. Try them (skill `reporting`, task `define-reports.md`):
|
||
|
||
- Ad hoc: `REPORT_DF` `NAME,PARAM_VALUE_1,GENERATE` = `"CIENG_TANK1","CI-Eng-Sample.TANK1.INFLOW",1`
|
||
with `dssqld -m`, or in the Engineering Module *Configuration > Reporting > Reports* › right-click
|
||
› *Generate*. The output lands in `%TLS_LST_PATH%\cieng_report.txt` and in `REPORT_VAL`.
|
||
- Trigger: `itmval -p -n CI-Eng-Sample.TANK1.INFLOW -v 450` → `CIENG_INFLOW_HI` 5 s later; write a
|
||
value below 400 before the next test.
|
||
- `CIENG_TANK1` also runs every day at 06:00 (local time).
|
||
|
||
`remove.cmd` clears the schedule, removes the reports (with their generated reports and logbook
|
||
files), the destination and device, and deletes `cieng_report.txt`.
|
||
|
||
## Planned additions
|
||
|
||
| Phase | Adds |
|
||
|---|---|
|
||
| 10 | A symbol and a faceplate popup (displays and the operator layout exist) |
|
||
|
||
## Rules
|
||
|
||
- Test systems only; invented names only, no real plant or customer data.
|
||
- Keep the load order: sections → template items → classes (compiled) → objects → other
|
||
items → storage groups → items in storage groups (IM 36K10J10 §5.6). Keep `remove.cmd` in
|
||
reverse order.
|
||
- Every file notes the CI Server version it was built and tested on.
