3.1.8.2 Creating/Exporting the SYM_XML File
Note
If you are in the simulation mode you cannot perform configuration of sym-
bols or settings for generating the SYM_XML file. The category Symbol
configuration is not available for selection in this case.
You can make this category visible by selecting Online \ Logoff in the main
menu and removing the check mark in front of Simulation.
The SYM_XML file is a file that contains all project variables. This file is
necessary for the BACnet Configurator. Proceed as follows to create this file:
1. In the WAGO-I/O-PRO CAA software under
Project \ Options
select the
category
Symbol configuration
.
2. Place a check mark in the check box
Generate XML Symbol table
3. Click the button
Configure symbol file....
A dialog window then appears
in which you can set the object attributes.
4. Place a check mark in the check box
Issue object variables
. This check
mark must appear in black!
Once these options have been activated, an SYM_XML file will be generated
automatically with project variables when a project is compiled.
Note
If the check mark in the box
Issue object variables
is gray, this means that it
has not been explicitly set. Click in the box again to make sure that the check
mark appears in black.
