Creating an archive
To create a commissioning archive:
1.
In the operator area "Services" select "Series commissioning" on the expanded softkey
bar.
2. Select archive content.
If HMI data are selected for the archive:
The F:USER directory is always backed up.
–
Keep the default setting with the standard values.
– Select the required data using the softkey "HMI data selection". Directories \ADD_ON
and \OEM can be saved under "Additional products", either completely ("Complete")
or just the INI files ("Configuration").
3. Archive name: Accept the recommendation given by the system or enter a name.
4. Start creating the archive using the softkey "Archive" or "NC card".
Ensure that there is sufficient free memory space.
Result: When selecting "Archive", the archive is saved on the hard disk under the
following path:
F:\dh\arc.dir\ ...
Alternatively, the archive can be saved on a partitioned USB Flash Drive (with a partition
for Linux and Windows).
Read-in archive
Requirements: The commissioning archive must be located under the same path on the new
control as on the control on which it was created.
In order to read-in a commissioning archive:
1.
Select the softkey "Read-in commissioning archive": The directory is displayed.
2. Start the read-in (download) operation using the softkey "Start".
3. Acknowledge the prompt with "Yes".
The archive is read-in (downloaded) and the system is automatically re-started in order
that the archive data become effective.
Note
When importing an archive, the available space on the hard disk must be at least the size
of the series commissioning archive.
If a control is configured for M:N, the PCU must be re-started after executing a series
commissioning (start-up) so that the devices in the network (NCU, PLC, HMI) can re-
synchronize.
