• Supporting PLC Type Replacement
Note PLC replacement must be carried out through the [Replace PLC Type] option, and if it is done by getting
the original PLC deleted and then a needed PLC type created, the PLC address type set in the original
project will be replaced by the HMI local address.
It provides a parameter setting dialog box for the PLC to be replaced and other PLCs in the
navigation mode for the user to make replacement operation. Select a PLC and right-click it in the
Construct Window to make the pull-down menu popup, and then click "Replace PLC Type".
Then, the Replace PLC Type dialog box will pop up, as shown below.
The user can select the PLC by right-clicking it in the Construct Window, and select "Replace PLC
Type" in the pop-up menu. A dialog box as shown above will pop up automatically, and all the
supported PLC names are included in the pull-down list of the PLC names. When the user select a
PLC, the register address types supported by this PLC will be added to the address type box. The
default selections are LB & LW, but the user can select different address types according to the
specific PLC. After being confirmed by the user, the PLC will be replaced, and the corresponding
PLC register address in the project will also be replaced at the same time.
