Chapter 5 Create Logic in the Old DeviceLogix Ladder Editor
You can download when logic is enabled or disabled. If you
download logic when logic is enabled, the download process occurs
as follows:
• The old Ladder Editor checks to see if logic is enabled in the
device.
• If the logic is enabled, you are asked if you want to disable
logic. If you:
– Select No - the logic is not downloaded to the device and an
error message displays.
– Select Yes - the logic is downloaded to the device.
• If logic was enabled before you downloaded, when the
download is complete, you are asked if you want to re-enable
the logic. If logic was not enabled before you downloaded, you
are not prompted to enable or disable the logic.
• When the download is complete, you are notified that the
download was successful. Note that if the master is currently
scanning the device to which you are downloading, you must
first access the DeviceNet scanner's scanlist to remove the device
from the scanlist. If this new logic results in different connection
sizes, you must adjust the master as follows:
– Put the master in Idle mode (This may mean turning a
processor's key switch to Program.)
– Access the device parameter’s to change the size of the
connections.
– Download the device to the scanlist.
– Click the Edit I/O Parameters button and verify the Rx and
Tx size corresponds to the new connection size.
– Put the master in Run mode for normal operation.
You can click the Cancel button anytime during the download
process to abort downloading the logic to the device. If you click the
Cancel button, an error message displays and neither old logic nor
new logic exists in the device. You must let the download complete
for logic to be contained in the device.
If logic is enabled during the download process, once the download is
complete, online animation starts. You see the color green on the
wires connecting the elements. If logic is disabled, the current state of
connections is displayed and inputs can be changed, but online
animation does not start.
When you download, the downloaded information is not
automatically stored into the RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software .dnt
file. You must make sure you save any changes after you exit the old
DeviceLogix Editor to ensure that any changes made to the schematic
are saved, including changes made as a result of an upload.
