3. Select
the
Transfer from PLC
button from the toolbar. A warning dialogue is displayed
indicating that the current program in the project is overwritten.
The Upload Options dialogue is displayed allowing individual components to be selected
for transfer from the PLC, for example, programs, expansion functions (if available),
memory allocation, settings, IO table and memory.
Note:
It is possible to upload a single program or section for online-editing, if section
markers have been included in the program. When a single section has been uploaded, it
can only be online-edited, or copied to another, complete program.
Note:
It is possible to load symbol definitions from the PLC, if it has a file-card
(CS/CJ/CV PLCs), file memory or comment memory. Loading symbols from comment
memory is for backward compatibility with the OMRON SSS package: the symbols
contained in the memory will be unnamed, global symbols.
Note:
When
Start Auto Decompiling
is checked CX-Programmer automatically starts to
decompile after uploading the program from the PLC.
4. Set the settings as required and select the
OK
pushbutton.
5. The Uploading dialogue indicates the success (or not) of the transfer operation. Any
errors are written to the Error Log. Select the
OK
pushbutton to complete the operation.
Downloading Program/s to the PLC
Programs can be downloaded to the PLC from the project when the PLC is in Program mode. If the PLC is not
already in this mode, CX-Programmer changes the mode automatically.
Use the following procedure to transfer a program to the PLC.
1, 2, 3…
1. Select the PLC object in the project workspace.
2. Select
the
Work On-line
button from the toolbar. A confirmation message is displayed;
select the
Yes
pushbutton to connect to the PLC.
Select the
Transfer To PLC
button from the toolbar. The Download Options dialogue is
displayed allowing the download of programs, settings and IO table individually or
together.
Note:
It is possible to save symbol definitions to the PLC, if it has a file-card (CS/CJ/CV
PLCs), file memory or comment memory. Saving symbols to comment memory is for
backward compatibility with the OMRON SSS package: only global symbols without
names are downloaded.
3. Set the settings as required and select the
OK
pushbutton. The items that can be
downloaded vary according to PLC series.
The program is compiled and then a confirmation dialogue is displayed. The Ladder program is greyed-out,
preventing any further editing. The operating mode and the cycle time of the task is displayed in the status bar.
It is not possible to download a single program or selection of programs to the PLC – all programs are
downloaded together. However, any programs which have ‘unassigned’ tasks (set in the program properties)
will not be included.
Cancelling the program Transfer
While transferring a program to or from a PLC it is possible to cancel the transfer by clicking the Transfer
button. However depending on when the button is pressed different functionality will occur.
If the Cancel button is pressed before or during the Memory Clear phase the memory clear will be completed
but the data transfer will not take place. If the button is pressed during the Transfer phase the transfer will be
stopped and the PLC memory will be cleared. The transfer will not be completed.
Comparing Programs
The project PLC program data can be compared with the data inside the PLC.
The following comparisons may be performed, depending on PLC type:
♦
Program step number and instructions;
♦
PLC data;
♦
Expansion Instruction Table (CQM1, C200HE, C200HG, C200HS and C200HX only);
