Performing an offline configuration

7.2.1

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 be loaded to the SIMOTION D410-2
and tested together with the drive.
Requirements
● For offline configuration, all of the components and their article numbers must be known.
● You have created a project in SIMOTION SCOUT and inserted a SIMOTION D410-2 in the
project.
● You have configured the communication between the SIMOTION D410-2 and the PG/PC,
see Section Creating a project and configuring the communication (Page 104).
Procedure
The offline configuration involves the following steps:
● Accessing the drive wizard (Page 146)
● Configuring components (Page 146)
● Downloading the project to SIMOTION D410-2, by means of the following options:
– Downloading to the target system (Page 158)
– Downloading to the CF card (Page 159)
– Downloading incl. sources and additional data (Page 160)
– Archiving to the CF card (Page 160)
Note
During offline configuration, you can configure Terminal Modules such as the TM15, for
example.
