Download and Import the
Add-On Instructions
The SIL 2 Add-On Instructions are available from the
Product Compatibility and Download Center website.
IMPORTANT Before you import the Add-On Instructions to your project, you must
do the following.
1) Add your I/O modules to the project in the I/O configuration tree
and configure them properly.
2) SIL 2 = Yes must be selected when configuring the module.
This creates the data types and tags that you must use in the Add-
On Instruction.
Follow these steps to add the instructions to your project.
1. Right-click the Add-On Instructions folder and choose Import Add-On
Instruction.
2. Select the appropriate Add-On Instruction and click Import.
3. Click OK on the Import Configuration dialog box.
4. Repeat steps 1...3 for each Add-On Instruction you require.
The Add-On Instructions folder now contains the instructions that you
imported. The instructions also appear in the Add-On tab of the instruction
toolbar. The CRC calculator Add-On Instruction also appears.
IMPORTANT You see the following warning for each Add-On Instruction import
except the first one. Each Add-On Instruction import overwrites the
Add-On Instruction that is called 'CRC Calculator,' and this warning
appears because it is source protected. Click OK.
The appropriate data types are now available in your project.
