5.2.2.1.2 Load Application Programm Offline
For instance, in course of an initialization of the target device (refer to Initialization of the
Firmware) you can copy an instruction list saved as ASCII file from your PC directly on the SD
card.
• Insert the SD card in a read/write device installed on the engineering PC
• Copy the program file in the root directory of the SD card
• Change the file name to case plc_src.plc
• After that, insert the SD card into the target device
The target device performs a startup and checks therteby the program code:
• If no error is present, the program code is compiled and written into the program memory.
If present, the existing program code is thereby overwritten. After the startup, the new pro-
gram code will be processed.
• If an error is present, an error indication with details is recorded in the history. If present,
the existing program code is maintained and executed again after startup.
5.2.2.1.3 Export Application Program
For archiving purpose or for editing you can download the IL that is loaded in the target de-
vice.
This is how to download an IL from the target device:
• Click on the button , if you want to create a backup of the IL loaded in the target de-
vice
• Click with the right mouse button on Start download in order to open the dialog for saving
• Select the storage location and, if needed, change the file name; the file type .plc must be
kept
• Click on the button in order to close the dialog
The storage procedure is dependent on the web browser and consequently may vary. Follow
the instructions of your web browser.
The content of the displayed IL is written into the selected file. The target is a text file that con-
tains the program code in ASCII format. The file can be read or changed with a text editor (for
instance Microsoft Notepad
®
).
