Building and Downloading the Configuration

Issue 1.4
11.1 General
When you are finished programming a job, you must first build the job before downloading it.
Building a job takes the .SDB file (the un-
compiled, “working” file) and creates a CFIG file
(compiled version of job, usable by panel) that can be downloaded to the panel.
If errors are detected by the build operation, they are flagged and the build operation aborts.
These errors must be resolved before the build can be performed and the CFIG can be
created. Contact Simplex Service Support for help in resolving build errors.
1.
Start the programmer and open the job that you want to build.
2.
Start the build utility, by clicking on the
Build
menu and selecting the
Build
menu
option.
3.
When the
Revision History
dialog appears,
enter the name of the job in the
Name
field (or
the name of the person making the changes).
Enter the modifications made to the job in the
Enter Modifications
text box. Click OK.
The 4100U Job Builder dialog appears. It
contains messages, including errors, related to
the creation of the downloadable CFIG file.
4.
If the dialog says “
Build Complete
,” you are
ready to download the file to the panel. If error
messages appear, along with a “
Build
Aborted
” message, you must first resolve the errors before rebuilding the job.
