Parameters to Devices
This section explains how to write the master and slave parameters that were created
on the CX-Integrator to the actual network devices. This process is called
downloading.
The following two methods are used to write parameters to network devices.
1) Downloading the network configuration
2) Downloading parameters for specific devices
6-12-1 Downloading the Network Configuration
Network - Transfer [PC to Network]
The network configuration download function makes it possible to write and reset the
device parameters in the order of node addresses, and enable the new settings.
Note When downloading the network configuration, each of the devices is reset. If the
Master Unit is reset first, it may cause errors in writing parameters to the subsequent
slaves. For that reason, this method (downloading the network configuration) should be
used only when the Master Unit has been given the highest address.
To download the network configuration, use the following procedure.
1. Place the CX-Integrator online.
2. Select
Network - Transfer [PC to Network] .
The following conformation dialog box will be displayed.
3. Click the Yes Button.
The following progress window will be displayed and the downloading of the
network configuration will be started.
Note 1. The downloading can be canceled by clicking the Abort Button.
2. If an error occurs while the network configuration is downloaded, the following
confirmation window will be displayed.
Click the Continue Button to continue the process. Click the Abort Button to cancel
the process.
The downloading of the network configuration will be automatically continued if the
user does not click the
Abort Button for 15 s after the above window is displayed.
