Downloading the project incl. sources and additional data

Overview
It is possible to download additional data (e.g. sources) to the target device when saving a
project to the CF card or downloading to the SIMOTION D410‑2.
These data are required for:
● Online object comparison (e.g. additional properties)
● Various detailed comparisons (e.g. ST source file comparison)
● Synchronization with online objects.
In order to be able to load a project's sources and additional data to the PG, this must be
specified in the project under "Options" > "Settings" > "Download" > "Store additional data on
the target device". Alternatively, this setting can also be made when the data is loaded to the
target device/target system.
You can, for example, perform a project comparison with the sources and additional data stored
on the CF card (see example below).
Project comparison (example)
You intend to perform servicing work on a commissioned system and have placed a project
on your PG/PC. This project is not consistent with the project on the SIMOTION D410‑2 cm
the system. In order to analyze the differences, perform an object comparison via "Start object
comparison".
You have the following options in terms of re-establishing consistency:
● In the object comparison, it is possible to establish consistency in sources and technology
objects on an object-granular basis.
● Consistency can be established for the entire Control Unit by loading from the CF card with
"Target system" > "Load" > "Load CPU / drive unit to PG...."
Additional references
Detailed information on loading data to the target device can be found in the
Runtime Basic Functions Function Manual.
