Redimensioning of Space for PC Program
You can redimension at a later stage.
1. Make a copy of the PC program. Use the command DUTPT.
This copy includes the DIMPC information.
2. Load the copy. Use the command LOTPT.
When loading, you can select, among other things, REDIMENSION from a dialog.
2.4.2.5 Configuration/Application Building
Configuration/application building is not part of the installation work described here.
It is regarded as a separate activity and is treated in Chapter 3, Configuration/Application
Building of this manual as well as in separate documentation, for example the reference manual
AMPL Configuration Advant Controller 400 Series.
The configuration/application building ends up in an application program. This program is
divided into a data base part and a PC program part.
Primarily, the application language AMPL is used during program design.
Enter the program manually or load it from a diskette. An engineering station is used.
If an application program is already created, for example in an identical system which is already
tested, a program copy (dump) is loaded from this system.
2.4.2.6 Dumping and Loading
At regular intervals, make a backup copy of the data base content and the PC program.
After dimensioning and populating the data base in working mode CONFIGURATION, dump it
and re-load it with compression to minimize the memory space occupied.
See the list below of available dump and load commands, which are further described in the
manual AMPL Configuration Advant Controller 400 Series.
For a description of source code handling aimed at making the data base and PC program
transferable between different Advant Controller systems, see the manual Source Code
Handling.
Because of the division of data base and PC program, dump/load commands are directed to the
individual parts and to the total application program. They are used in different situations as
follows.
