EAE SE Process Libraries Reference

Reference skill for the SE.App2Base and SE.App2CommonProcess libraries - the standard industrial process control libraries in EcoStruxure Automation Expert.

These libraries provide:

  • Signal processing (analog/digital I/O)

  • Motor and valve control

  • PID and process control

  • Equipment modules (pumps, flow control)

  • Interlocks, failures, permissives

  • HMI-ready CATs with faceplates

Note: SE.App2CommonProcess depends on SE.App2Base and Runtime.Base.

Quick Start

User: I need a PID controller block Claude: Use PID from SE.App2CommonProcess - a standard PID with auto/manual modes

User: What block handles analog input scaling? Claude: Use AnalogInput CAT or AISignalScaling from SE.App2Base

Triggers

  • /eae-se-process

  • "find process block"

  • "motor control block"

  • "valve control block"

  • "PID block"

  • "analog input block"

  • "SE.App2Base"

  • "SE.App2CommonProcess"

Scripts

Block Lookup

Search SE.App2Base and SE.App2CommonProcess blocks by keyword, category, or list all:

Find motor-related blocks

python scripts/lookup_block.py "motor"

Returns: Motor, Motor2D, Motor2S, MotorCyc, MotorVs, motorLogic, etc.

Find all PID blocks

python scripts/lookup_block.py "pid"

Show category with results

python scripts/lookup_block.py "valve" --category

Show library (App2Base vs App2CommonProcess) with results

python scripts/lookup_block.py "alarm" --library

List all categories

python scripts/lookup_block.py --list-categories

List all blocks

python scripts/lookup_block.py --list-all

JSON output for automation

python scripts/lookup_block.py "analog" --json

Common Usage Patterns

See common-patterns.md for detailed patterns:

  • Basic Analog Input - AnalogInput with scaling and alarms

  • Motor with Interlocks - Motor CAT with ilckCondItem chain

  • PID Control Loop - PID with cascade mode

  • Valve with Permissives - Valve2Op with permCondItem chain

  • Equipment Module - PumpSet with FlowCtl coordination
