6.6.29 'Online' 'Sourcecode download'
This command loads the source code for the project into the controller system. This is
not to be confused with the Code that is created when the project is compiled! You
can enter the options that apply to Download (time, size) in the 'Project' 'Options'
'Source download ' dialog.
6.6.30 'Online' 'Create boot project'
With this command, the compiled project is set up on the controller in such a way that
the controller can load it automatically when restarted. Storage of the boot project
occurs differently depending on the target system. For example, on 386 systems three
files are created: default.prg contains the project code, default.chk contains the code's
checksum, default.sts contains the controller status after restart (start/stop).
The command 'Online' 'Create boot project' is also available in offline mode if the
project has been built without errors. In this case the following files are created in the
projects directory: <projektname>.prg for the boot project code, and
projektname>.chk for the checksum. These files can be renamed as necessary and
then be copied to a PLC.
Depending on the target system settings at the creation of a boot project in offline
mode a new *.ri-file (download information) might be created. Also depending on the
target setting a dialog will appear if this file is already existing.
Note!
If the project option Implicit at create boot project (category Source download) is
activated, then the selected sources will be loaded automatically into the controller
on the command 'Online' 'Create boot project'.
6.6.31 'Online' 'Write file to PLC'
This command is used for loading any desired file onto the controller. It opens the
dialog for 'Write file to controller' in which you can select the desired file.
After the dialog is closed using the 'Open' button, the file is loaded into the controller
and stored there under the same name. The loading process is accompanied by a
progress dialog.
With the command 'Online' 'Load file from PLC' you can retrieve a file previously
loaded on the controller.
