6-13 Uploading and Verifying Device Parameters
Uploading device parameters refers to writing the parameters from the actual network
devices to the virtual network in the CX-Integrator. Verifying device parameters refers
to comparing the parameters in the actual network devices with those in the
CX-Integrator.
This section explains how to do both of these operations.
Note When the network configuration is uploaded, the parameters for each device will all be
read.
6-13-1 Uploading the Network Configuration
Network - Transfer [Network to PLC]
To read the actual network configuration, use the following procedure.
1. While online, right-click the DeviceNet Unit below
TargetPLC in the Online
Connection Information Window and select Connect from the popup menu.
2. Right-click the DeviceNet Unit and select Transfer [Network to PLC] from the
popup menu.
Uploaded devices will be displayed in the Network Configuration Window.
Note If the DeviceNet network configuration was being uploaded with the CX-Integrator
version 2.1 or higher, and the upload was cancelled or failed, the following dialog box
will be displayed the next time that the same network configuration is uploaded. This
feature allows you to upload the configuration only for the nodes where the upload
failed. (This is the DeviceNet network upload resume function.)
When Only the nodes failed in the
previous transfer is selected for
the transfer method, only the
nodes with
Failure transfer results
are transferred.
