Downloading the sample program
First, ensure that your network hardware and PLC connector cable for either Ethernet
(Page 33) (standard CPUs only) or RS485 (Page 36) communications is working, and that
PLC communication is operating properly.
To download all project compo-
nents, click the "Download" button
from the "Transfer" area of the
File or PLC menu ribbon strip, or
alternatively press the shortcut
key combination "CTRL+D".
Click the Download dialog "Down-
load" button.
STEP 7-Micro/WIN SMART cop-
ies the complete program or pro-
gram components that you
selected to the CPU.
If your CPU is in RUN mode, a dialog prompts you to place the CPU in STOP mode. Clicking
"Yes" sets the CPU to STOP mode.
Note
Each project is associated with a CPU type. If the project type does not match the CPU to
which you are connected, STEP 7-Micro/WIN SMART indicates a mismatch and prompts
you to take an action.
