8.5.2 Import/Export Assistant (IEA)
Introduction
During the planning of a plant, a wide variety of data is created, often at a time where no definite
control system is planned. By using the import function, this data can be made available to the
control system engineering. You use the import/export assistant if you want to frequently use
multiple models or process tag types in a project (bulk data processing) and change block
parameter descriptions easily.
