There are still a few steps, which must be completed before you can test your first project. In this section, you will:
save the project onto your computer hard drive
compile the project into a format that can be understood by the OIT
download the project to the OIT
verify that the OIT operates as expected
exit the EZware-500 software

Downloading your first project
1. Apply power to your OIT.
2. From the Tools menu, click Download. The EasyDownload Complete Project dialog box
appears.

will notice that a horizontal bar graph is displayed on the computer indicating how much of
the project has been downloaded. The OIT will also display several Write Flash commands
that scroll on the screen. If a timeout error is displayed, please review your connection of the
OIT to the computer and make sure that the appropriate settings in EasyManager are used.
4. After the download is finished, the Mission Complete dialog box is displayed.

If you haven't already done so, now would be a good time to connect the OIT to the
computer and to connect the PLC that you are using to the OIT. For more information,
consult the first part of this chapter or see "Installation of OITs" later on in this
manual.
