Chapter 1: Getting Started
Step 6: Establish PC to PLC Communications, (cont'd)
If you are trying to connect the CLICK Programming Software to a new CLICK PLC or an
older CLICK PLC that was reset to the factory default, you will see the following pop-up
message once communication has been established with the CLICK PLC. This is because
there is no user project in the CLICK PLC currently. Click the OK button to close the
message and proceed to the next step.
If you are trying to connect the CLICK Programming Software to a CLICK PLC that already
has a user project, the following Connect dialog box will appear.
It is not unusual that the project opened in the programming software will not match the
project that resides in the PLC. The dialog box gives you a choice to either read the PLC's
project for viewing purposes, but at the same time allowing the project opened in the software
to still be saved, or not read the project in the PLC.
For the Getting Started exercise, click the radio button for the "Don't read the project from
the PLC" and click OK. Proceed to the next step which will allow the created project to be
written into the CPU memory.
