3.6 The Application Editor
The Application Editor enables you to view all the parameters in the application database
and — in certain instances — to edit the data as well.
Note:
In order to maintain database integrity, it is highly recommended that you
modify all application parameters through the Composer Wizard rather
than using the Application Editor.
The Application Editor is displayed when you click Application Editor in the Setup
Information dialog box which is accessible through the Composer Wizard (
section 2.11 ).
Below is an example of the main window of the Application Editor:
Figure 3-10: The Application Editor
Always save your application before accessing the Application Editor through the Wizard.
The application parameters are arranged in groups according to definition given in the
Command Reference file. The tree structure is displayed in the left window pane. Each
folder represents a different definition group, with its parameters. All the properties of
the selected parameter are displayed in the right pane. You can use the Edit – Find
option to search for a specific parameter.
3.7 The Table Editor
You can use the Composer to download a PVT (Position, Velocity, Time) or PT (Position,
Time) table to an attached servo drive, via CANopen communication. The Table Editor
enables you to open an existing table that was created in an external spreadsheet
program, make the required modifications to it, and then download it to the drive by
selecting its node ID in the CANopen network.
