Download to a Password-Protected Controller
1. Launch the Connected Components Workbench software.
2. Click Connect.
3. Select the target controller.
4. When requested, provide the controller password.
5. Build and save the project, if needed.
6. Click Download.
7. Click Disconnect.
IMPORTANT
When using Connected Components Workbench software version 9
or earlier:
• You cannot upload a version 10 or later project from the controller.
• You can upload a version 9 or earlier project from the controller if it was
downloaded to the controller using Connected Components Workbench
software version 10 or later, but you cannot go online.
IMPORTANT
If the controller has a password locked version 10 or later project, you
cannot access the controller using Connected Components Workbench
software version 9 or earlier. If you use Connected Components Workbench
software version 10 or later to download a version 9 or earlier project, the
password in the controller will be automatically converted to the
old algorithm.
IMPORTANT
If the controller has a password locked version 9 or earlier project and you
use Connected Components Workbench software version 10 or later, to
download a version 10 or later project, the password in the controller will be
automatically converted to the new algorithm.
IMPORTANT
If communication is lost during the download, repeat the download and
verify that the controller is password protected.
