Application Management

Teaching and Learning

Synchronization can be performed in two ways:
• Teaching to Controller Downloads the changed application in the project to the controller
•
Learning from Controller Uploads the changed application from the controller in the project
When in teaching mode, application changes of the project can be written to the controller in two ways:
• Immediate changes are written to the controller automatically and are effective immediately
•
on demand changes are written to the controller manually and explicitly by the Teach to Controller action.
The explicit usage of the teaching and learning actions and the time when a particular action is used depends on the
application status in the project and the connected controller, and the result you want to achieve.
Controllers can:
• be empty (factory delivery, cleared, no application)
•
have a history (engineered with application)
Recommendations
Please be sure, which result you want to achieve and ask the following:
- Do you want to keep the application in the controller, or in the project?
- Do you want to change the application in the project and teach it to the controller?
- Do you want to learn an application from the controller to the project?
If you want to keep the application in the project, learning the application from the controller should be avoided for
controllers with history. In this case, the controller should be cleared before, in order to avoid the destruction of the
application in the project.
If you want to keep the application in the controller, teaching the application to the controller would not destroy the
application. Only the changes are teached.
NOTE: If there are too many changes in the project or in the controller, learning from and teaching to the controller does
not work.
NOTE: Software always give support by displaying appropriate messages which describe the current status/problem
and how to proceed.

Teaching to Controller

Teach to Controller" downloads the changed application of the project to the controller. This can happen in two ways:
- Immediate changes are written to the controller automatically and are effective immediately
- on demand changes are written to the controller manually and explicitly by the "Teach to Controller" action.
NOTE: When working in teaching mode ´immediate`, no messages display and no changes are indicated graphically
when changing the application. The following procedure can be applied at any time when working in teaching mode ´on
demand`.
Procedure
1. Right-click on IRM Program in the tree, then click Actions, and then click Teach To Controller in the context menu.
