The running configuration is not affected until the end of the process when
the pending edits are assembled. Saving, reviewing or canceling pending
edits prior to assembling only affects the configuration files, not the running
configuration itself.
Configurations That Use Online Edits
A configuration that uses online edits allows you to add new data points and
transactions as well as change existing data points and transactions while it
is running. These changes are referred to as pending edits. In defining
configurations that use online edits, you automatically use the Transaction
Control Manager which communicates exclusively with FactoryTalk Live
Data data servers.
If you wish to convert existing configurations to configurations that use
online edits, you will need to migrate the existing configurations using
RSLinx Classic, RSView32, and OPC connectors to configurations that use
the FactoryTalk Live Data connector. For more information about available
migration methods and tools, refer to the product CD or Rockwell
Automation Knowledgebase Web site. Go to
http://www.rockwellautomation.com/support/, click the Knowledgebase
link and search by entering keywords such as ―FactoryTalk Transaction
Manager‖, ―RSSql‖, or ―migration‖.
If you visit the support site for the first time, you need to select your region and
country in order to access the Knowledgebase page.
The following guidelines apply to working with configurations that use
online edits.
In a running configuration that uses online edits, you can:
 Create new and modify existing data points.
 Create new and modify existing transactions.
 Enable and disable transactions.
 Save and assemble pending edits.
