3. Click Download to start the simultaneous download for all
selected controllers.
The Action column shows the command that is currently
executed or a short status message. In the example below, the
downloads have completed successfully.
4. After successful download, the CPU Status is Stop/Valid
Configuration.
5. Select all controllers again if necessary, and click Coldstart to
start the application.
Network Optimizing With the initial network settings made in the HH protocol and
Peer-to-Peer protocol, communication is likely to work, but the
settings can be optimized for homogenous network load and faster
message exchange.
Before starting the optimization steps, let the project run for several
hours. Test as many operating conditions as possible to address timing
factors that may prevent a project from running after optimization.
IMPORTANT
If there is no real need to reduce Worst Case ReactionTime, do
not make changes to the WDZ and the ReceiveTMO!
Only optimize the ResponseTime.
A high WDZ or ReceiveTMO does not degrade performance, but
an optimized ResponseTime increases availability.
