Overview of compiling, downloading, and testing
Overview
This section guides you through the following:
● Compiling the program you have created with CFC and SFC.
● Downloading your program to the CPU.
● Running your program in test mode.
This allows you to check the correct functionality of the charts. You have already been
introduced to the "Download" function when you downloaded the hardware configuration.
You can perform two steps in conjunction with creating the chart:
1. Compile and download the blocks and charts. For this task, you can use the "Compile and
Download Objects" function.
2. Test the program in the SFC Editor and CFC Editor.
