To convert the run-time application file, use the Restore runtime application operation in
the Application Manager. Data logging and alarm data that occurred at run time are not
restored to the development application.
RSLinx Enterprise device shortcuts that were edited at run time are restored when you
convert the run-time application to a development application. However, the Runtime tab
in the RSLinx Enterprise Communication Setup editor might not display the device
configuration for the run-time application. Make sure the Runtime tab shows the correct
device configuration before making any changes to the shortcuts.
To convert a run-time application to a development application
1. In FactoryTalk View Studio, from the Tools menu, select Application Manager.
2. When prompted to select the application type, select Machine Edition, and then click
Next.
3. Click Restore runtime application, and then click Next.
4. Specify the folder and file name of the run-time application to convert.
5. If you created a password for the file when you created the run-time application, type
the password.
RSLinx Enterprise device shortcuts that were valid on the run-time terminal might not exist or
might be invalid on the development computer. Review all device and tag file shortcut
assignments in the RSLinx Enterprise Communication Setup editor before you edit, test, or
transfer the application.
