Configuring the system in offline mode

5.2.1

Overview

Introduction
In the case of offline configuration, the project is created while not all of the hardware
components (in particular drives) are available. In this way, a SIMOTION project in the office
environment can be created up to a point where a basic project specification including a
program exists. At a later time, the finished project can then be loaded to the SIMOTION D410
and tested together with the drive.
Prerequisites for offline configuration
● All components and their order number must be known for the offline configuration.
● You created a project in SIMOTION SCOUT and added a SIMOTION D410 to the project.
● You configured the communication between the programming device / PC and SIMOTION
