4–5 Configuring the Modules
Publication 1771Ć6.4.5 - January 1997
Although an automatic upload is performed when a screen first
opens, you may also perform a manual upload at any time. This is
useful, for example, when you want to transfer data stored in the disk
file to the PLC processor by first uploading from the file and then
downloading to the processor.
To upload configuration values:
1. From the
Module menu, select Upload.
Accessing the Upload function
You may also access the Upload function by pressing
CTRL + U.
The Upload dialog box appears.
2. Select your desired upload source and click on
OK.
The values are then uploaded, the dialog box closes, and the
left-hand section of the status bar at the bottom of the window is
updated to show the values were uploaded.
Some screens have both Loop and Module menus. On these
screens, when you select upload or download from the Loop
menu, the only data transferred is that for the loop on which the
screen was opened. When you select upload or download from
the Module menu, the data for all eight loops of the module are
transferred. This is useful, for example, to upload an entire
module from the PLC processor and then save it to the disk file,
without having to go to eight separate screens and perform eight
separate uploads and downloads. Because this command, if used
improperly, can alter data you did not intend to alter, you are
prompted for confirmation when you attempt to perform a
module upload.
