To perform the download operation, first make sure that the communications port is
properly configured. To access communications setup, click on the target you want to

Figure 127: Communications Setup
After configuring the communications port, the local logic program can be downloaded
(stored) to the Host Controller CPU. To store the current folder to the Host Controller,
choose Target from the Menu Bar and Go Online with “<Target>” from the submenu. Once
connected, choose Target from the Menu Bar and Download “<Target>” to PLC from the
submenu. The store operation begins the folder transfer process from the programmer to
the Host Controller CPU. When you initiate the store operation, a dialog box is presented
that allows you to choose what to store to the Host Controller. In this case, you want to store
the Local Logic program, Hardware configuration, and any Host Controller logic. To perform
this operation, select, in the dialog box, Store hardware configuration and motion to the
PLC and Store logic to PLC.
