Setup program
4.3.1
Start page
The setup program is used to create new projects and edit existing projects.
The "Projects" window contains corresponding buttons. If applicable, the most recently edited and
opened projects are also shown. These are likewise provided in the form of buttons for opening the re-
spective project or switching to a project that is already open.
When creating a new project, a project template must be selected that depends on the device type and
version of the device software. If necessary, the version of the setup program must also be taken into
account.
Functions provided in the left-hand bar (also known as the "application bar"):
•
Projects: Create new project, open existing project
•
Connections: Configure and manage connections to devices
•
Settings: Select the language of the setup program
•
Info: Display information about the setup program
The bar at the bottom also displays opened projects (in the form of "project maps").
NOTE!
Before a device (or system) can be put into operation, the setup program must be used to create a proj-
ect and transfer it to the device. The first step is to define the hardware configuration for the device (type
and arrangement of hardware modules). The connection to the device must also first be configured be-
fore the project can be transferred.
