Offline Channel Configuration
Offline modifications to the channel configuration cause asterisks to appear on the
Program Directory screen in the file size column and on the Memory Map screen in
the program size field. The asterisks indicate that changes have been made, but
need to be saved.
Accepting Edits
The channel configuration parameters currently on the screen are written to the
channel configuration file in the APS database. However, this does not cause the
parameters to be written to the processor image. After accepting those edits, you
must save your new configuration to the processor image for the program file. If
you press
[F1] Accept Edits one or more times, but do not save the program,
the changes made are discarded and the last version saved is loaded.
Undoing Edits
The channel configuration parameters from the APS database revert back to the
previously saved configuration.
Possible Channel Configuration Errors
Up to four error codes may be displayed if the communication channels cannot be
successfully reconfigured. If any of the following errors occur, you must correct the
source of the error and retry channel reconfiguration.
•
COMMUNICATION DRIVER NOT AVAILABLE IN PROCESSOR
•
COMMUNICATION DRIVER IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH CHANNEL
•
BOTH CHANNEL SYSTEM DRIVERS CANNOT BE DISABLED
•
BOTH CHANNEL SYSTEM DRIVERS CANNOT BE WRITE PROTECTED
If the above errors occur, channel protection remains unchanged and all other
changes are accepted.
Undoing Edits
The channel configuration parameters revert back to what they were prior to the last
time an Accept Edits was performed.
