Table 4-1: Types of files generated by EnerVista 650 Setup software, offline:
When using element libraries (both pre-existing in File Library > Open Library or created by the user in File Library > New
Library ), the program creates and manages the corresponding files (*.lib) in a folder named FDB (Functional Block
Diagram). These files are used for PLC project compilation. The element library files must be stored with the other logic
configuration files that build the PLC project (*.pep, *.aut, *.lib).
Besides sending configuration information to the relay (Settings & configuration in *.650 format), storing the complete set
of *.650, *.pep, *.aut and *.lib files inside the relay is recommended (
Communication > Upload info files to relay ). This
ensures that logic configuration files are available in future for logic modifications. Even if these files are not used by the
relay, they are required to connect to the relay and analyze its configuration. The EnerVista 650 Setup software program
manages the logic configuration files globally, so that when the *.pep file is uploaded to the relay, the associated *.aut and
*.lib files are also stored.

How to
transfer to
relay
Connect with the relay ( Communications > Computer )
Open the created file ( File > Open * )
Send to relay from the menu: File > Send info to relay
Note that texts used in the configuration of inputs,
outputs, etc. are not sent to the relay. The only texts
sent to relay are operations, events, and LEDs.
Connect with the relay ( Communications > Computer )
Launch Logic equations Editor ( Setpoint > Logic
Configuration )
Open the created PLC project ( File > Open Project )
Compile the project ( Run > Compile )
Now the logic (virtual outputs) can be sent directly to relay
( Run > Send Equations to Relay ). Texts of virtual outputs are
not stored in the relay, only in the logic configuration files to
be edited.
File storage inside the relay
(RECOMMENDED)
Communication > Upload info files to relay through Ethernet
Retrieval of files stored in the relay
(RECOMMENDED)
Communication > Download info files from relay through Ethernet
