7.3 Downloading connections
Introduction
Once you have configured the stations and created the network connections, you have to
download the configuration data to the stations (AS/PC stations).
A prerequisite at this point is that Station Configuration editors of the OS server must be made
operational with the "Configure Target System" function (Creating and managing a PCS 7
project (Page 43) ).
Compile and save your configuration in NetPro for this purpose. All stations have a "white"
status color when the configuration is without errors.
For an initial configuration, perform the "PLC > Download to Current Project > Selected
Stations" function for all automation and PC stations (only possible with the AS in STOP mode).
For new or modified S7 connections, select the corresponding connection and use the "PLC
> Download to Current Project > Selected Connections" function (possible with the AS in RUN
mode).
Note
The active AS-AS connections are briefly interrupted when the "PLC > Download to Current
Project > Connections and Gateways" function is used for an AS. This interruption will not
affect the output parameters for the standard blocks of the CFC library (REC_R, REC_BO).
Only the "PLC > Download to Current Project > Selected Stations" function is possible for a
PC station.
