Saving configuration before download to IO Controller 

When there is an ‘*’ displayed in Windows title or in network ‘tree’, then the configuration on the 
‘screen’ does not match that stored on Disk.  Before downloading Configuration changes to the IO 
Controller, please make sure the project is saved (‘*’ disappear). 

 

 

Download Configuration 

Now the project (configuration) can be sent to the IO Controller. 
Right Click on the IO Controller and select ‘Download Parameters to device’.
