Rockwell Automation 20D-DL2-CKS1 Import/Export Project Components - Manual (Page 23)

Import and export logic components Chapter 1
• Programs -- If you are importing multiple programs, the grid shows the
programs that are being imported into the project. If you are importing
multiple hierarchies, the grid shows the programs and the children of the
programs that are being imported into the project.
• Tags, Add-On Instructions, Data Types and Other Components --
References include any tags directly referenced by any imported logic or tags
(using Alias For).
• Connections -- Lists the connections, from programs that are external to
the programs in the import content, that are also connected to programs in
the existing project.
The following table describes the multiple-import configuration parameters.
Configuration Description
Multiple Programs The Import Content pane shows the number of programs that are being imported into
the project.
The value shown in the parenthesis excludes children of the programs.
If differences occur among the programs, the difference icon appears in the Differences
column of the Programs grid.
Imported Programs Shows the number of parent and child programs (if applicable) that are being imported
into the project.
Operation Identifies what is done with the programs upon import.
• If Import is selected, all programs are imported into the project.
• If Discard is selected, the programs are not imported into the project.
The box is set to Import by default. However, you can choose Discard from the menu.
Note: To see the Operation value for a specific program, check the Programs grid of the
program's child program.
Schedule In Shows the task in which the imported programs are scheduled.
The default value for the Schedule In value is the selected task or Unscheduled
Programs/Phases based on which method you use to import the content, and from which
organizer you initiate the import.
• If you use Paste Special>With Configuration in the Controller Organizer, the
default value is the selected task.
• If you use the Paste Special>With Configuration option or the File>Import
Component option in the Logical Organizer, the default value is Unscheduled
Programs/Phases.
The Operation box must be set to Import to modify the Scheduled In value.
Do not change scheduling of
existing programs When selected, programs that exist in the project remain scheduled as they are configured
in the project. The check box is selected by default.
When cleared, upon import, programs are scheduled in the task specified in the Schedule
In box.
To modify this option:
• The Operation box must be set to Import.
• The controller cannot be in Remote Run mode.
