To edit devices in a different project than the current one
If an application is open, the project associated with it is listed in the
Current Project box. However a different project can be selected
and its devices edited.
Select a project name in the Current Project list box. The Existing
Devices box lists all devices in the selected project.
When reopening an application, it is possible that the devices or tags
in the application are not in the project or are different from the
devices or tags in the project. This section shows how to:
•
load unknown devices or tags in a project
•
replace devices or tags in a project.
If application devices or tags are not in its project:
MessageBuilder displays the following dialog if the application you
are opening contains devices (terminal/controller) or tags that are not
stored in the project.
MessageBuilder must be told what to do. The options are:
Select: To:
Add the named device or tag to the project database.
Ignore the device or tag, do not add it to the database.
Add all unknown devices or tags to the database.
Ignore all unknown devices or tags, and open the application.
Do not open the application.
If Yes or No was chosen, the dialog reappears with the next
application tag or device not found in the project.
