‘Sourcedownload’

The following dialog will be opened when you select this category:

You can choose to which Timing and what Extent the project is loaded into the controller system. The option ‘Sourcecode only’ exclusively involves just the CoDeSys file (file extension .pro). The option ‘All files’ also includes files such as the associated library files, visualization bitmaps, configuration files, etc.

Using the option ‘Implicit at load’ allows the selected file range to be automatically loaded into the controller system on the command ‘Online’ ‘Download’.

Using the option ‘Implicit at create boot project’ allows the selected file range to be automatically loaded into the controller system on the command ‘Online’ ‘Create boot project’.

Using the option ‘Notice at load’ offers a dialog when the command ‘Online’ ‘Download’ is given, with the question “Do you want to write the source code into the controller system?”. Pressing ‘Yes’ will automatically load the selected range of files into the controller system, or you can alternatively finish with ‘No’.

When using the option ‘On demand’ the selected range of files must be expressly loaded into the controller system by giving the command ‘Online’ ‘Sourcecode download’.

The project which is stored in the controller system can be retrieved by using ‘File’ ‘Open’ with Open project from PLC. The files will be unpacked in the process.

Note

The settings will be stored in CoDeSys.
