1.4.1 Configuration Comparison
This window will appear if differences were detected in the configuration
files in the project directory on the computer and the MPiec controller.
Device Differences
Differences in physical devices or communication settings are displayed
visually in the windows.
Parameter Differences
If both locations contained configuration files, the exact differences can be
viewed by right clicking in the item highlighted in red.
If either location did not contain configuration files, such as the case of a
new project or new controller, the differences cannot be displayed.
1.5 Saving Configuration Data
Configuration files are stored in a sub directory of the MotionWorks IEC
application’s project directory when the Save icon is clicked from within
the Hardware Configuration. When online with the controller, the save
function also downloads parameters to the controller and all
MECHATROLINK motion devices.
The Save function will universally save data for all configured
components.
