Downloading the project from a dl06 working with a pid..
I have a program running with a pid and it has a ctrio configured and I want to load it to a new plc, but I want to know if the ctrio and the pid configuration will be loaded into the new plc or do I need to do it manually?
Thanks.😁
Only the PID is saved as part of your DirectSOFT project. You will have to use CTRIO Workbench to save its configuration to a .cwb file, then write that to the new PLC's CTRIO module.
Regarding PID configuration, connect to your existing PLC with DirectSOFT, then do File->Save Project->To Disk to get the program AND SYSTEM V AND USER V, since V memory contains your PID configuration.
Then, with your existing DISK project still opened EDIT DO PLC->DISCONNECT, THEN DO PLC->CONNECT to your NEW PLC, and do File->Save Project->To PLC to write System V and User V to your new PLC.
