Save the Connection
Configuration in the
GuardPLC Controller

Up to this point, only the configuration has been downloaded to the
GuardPLC controller. The offline project currently contains only the
assigned signal connections.

Once the connection configuration is saved with the RSLogix Guard
PLUS! project, you can switch to other projects, reprogram the
GuardPLC controller, and be sure that when the configuration is
loaded back to the GuardPLC controller, it will use this RSNetWorx
configuration to reestablish connections.

Follow these steps to upload the online configuration to your offline
project.

1. Open the Control Panel in RSLogix Guard PLUS! Hardware

Management by choosing Control Panel from the Online menu.

2. Click the EIP tab.

3. Press the FS Upload button to upload the connection

configuration and add it to the project configuration.

An RSNetWorx Configuration sub-branch will be added to the
project tree under the EtherNet/IP Scanner branch.

4. Right-click the controller Resource in the project tree and choose

Code Generation to compile the configuration code.
