8. Series 8 I/O Loading
8.1 Loading Series 8 I/O components
Experion provides the ability to build control strategies offline, without being connected
to the actual controller components. The process of transferring the Control Strategy to
the actual working components in the field is called the load operation.
The load operation:
copies configuration data from the control strategy that is stored in the Engineering
Repository Database (ERDB) to the assigned controller component in the system
architecture.
assures that the planned system matches the actual one.
confirms that the communication addresses and physical location assignments
specified for components through Control Builder configuration match the actual
addresses and locations of components in the system.
Load order guidelines
Load control strategy components from the Project tab in the following order to avoid
possible load interaction generated error messages.
