Upload and Download Logic
Upload Logic
To upload logic, select Communications > Upload. The logic
configuration in the device is read and displayed in the Function
Block Editor. Any unsaved changes will be discarded and Online
Animation begins.
Note that some devices are capable of storing screen format
information. If a particular DeviceLogix-enabled device supports this
feature (dependent on the static memory size), the function block
logic and layout position information is stored and will be returned
with an upload. Further, the text comments are also saved, but the
quality of the content cannot be guaranteed.
When you upload, the uploaded 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 DeviceLogix Editor
to ensure that any changes made to the schematic are saved, including
changes made as a result of an upload.
Download Logic
To download logic, select Communications > Download. The logic
configuration in the Function Block Editor is duplicated and
transferred to the device. Before a download can be performed, the
logic must pass the verification process. See Verify Logic for more
information.
