After the communication parameters have been set and the parameters of
the basic project have been downloaded, the PLC system program must first
be downloaded.
Prerequisites:
1. Compile the program with "Build – Build Application".
2. The message window is opened during compilation. The display shows
information on the compilation progress.
3. After completed compilation, transfer the program to the control with
"Debug – Login to Application". After the transfer has been completed

PLC system program structure
7.2.1
Overview
The PLC system program has a clear structure. The most essential elements
are the following:
1. The "_OEM" folder is provided for the programs and function blocks of
the machine manufacturer. This folder is empty on delivery.
2. The "_System" folder is reserved for interfaces, programs and data
structures of the system program.
3. The global variables of the system are defined (declared) in the "_Sys‐
tem_Variables" list. These global variables can be used in any program
and/or function block. More global variables are declared in the
"MT_MTXmicro_Tech" library.
