9.4 Change to the archive structure, manual data transfer
9.4.2

Single-user station

Requirements
● No read or write access is being performed to the archive to be changed.
● No changes have yet been made
Note
We recommend that you do not perform this procedure in runtime. Changes cannot be
downloaded in runtime because an interface change is required at the AS function block. If
runtime is not active, you can also be sure that there is no read or write access to the archive
to be changed.
Procedure
1. Creating a backup of the multiproject
2. Export and save the content of the runtime archive FB_PARAM_001 using the user archive
editor (menu, "Runtime data" -> "Export")
3. Implement change in the engineering tool.
Note
The function block must be recompiled after a parameter is added. This results in a structure
change at runtime archive FB_PARAM_001 and the loss of the content. The content of the
configuration archive FB_PARAMATTRIB_001 is also changed, as is the interface of the
FB_001PA function block. You therefore need to perform a complete download of the AS.
4. Run the APF Integrator in all OS projects
5. Adapt the exported content from step 2 to the new archive structure (a new column has
been added and this column has now also to be added to the CSV file). This can be done
using MS Excel or a similar program.
6. Import the adapted CSV file to the runtime archive FB_PARAM_001 using the user archive
editor (menu, "Runtime data" -> "Import")
7. Replace the modified AS function block FB_001PA in the multiproject
8. Compile and download AS
9. Compile the OS server project
