The final step is to load the configuration (setup) files into the Arrays. Press
Write to Network
button in the Tool Bar will
open the screen shown below
The array listing and associated check boxes allow you to choose the arrays that will be configurated. During the process,
the program will assign numbers (1 to 8) to the arrays for use by Canvas.
OK
the prompt. When the files are successfully loaded a Prompt will appear (see below) informing you the data has been
successfully loaded. The red boxes in the Column listing will also turn green as a visual indication of their status.
The Arrays are now configured and ready to use.
Now, to return to the Scan Network setup window and explore the two setup options we ignored earlier (see page 35). The
Scan for new Arrays
on network option is similiar to the
Scan for Columns on network
option except that it also identifies
previously established Arrays. In most cases, you will find that this is the case as the Array(s) were created and loaded
with default setup parameters during final inspection at Renkus-Heinz. The default setup information is not uploaded to the
Beamware project.
The third option,
New Project from network
, is used mainly to connect to an existing Iconx installation. It searches the hard-
ware network and sets up a new project in Beamware 2 with all the proper settings. It sets up a new project in Beamware
2 and uploads the setup information from the Arrays to the software. Remember, when Beamware 2 is used all the settings
are stored in each array.
