3-1 Outline of Projects
A "project file" is a file that integrates and manages all of the devices required for production pro-
cesses.
Devices to be connected to production processes can be managed efficiently by individual field
network or master units.
What Is a "Project"?
On AutoID Navigator, the parameters of devices to be connected and memory map- or macro-
related setups are managed as "projects."
Projects are managed in individual folder, and each folder is called a "project folder." On AutoID
Navigator, the following files are created in project folders.
File names can be entered by the user.
■ Project save destination
Any folder for saving project data can be created when saving projects.
Folders can freely managed, for example, by saving data in separate folders by individual project.
