Configuration - Download RTU Configuration
First ensure that Toolbox can communicate with the target RTU. Please see the topic Getting Started -
Communicating With An RTU for more information.
Before downloading a completely new configuration to the local RTU it is recommended that the RTU is first
Cold Started (Utilities, Advanced, Cold Start.)
Caution! Cold starting a remote RTU is not recommended. After a cold start, an RTU will remember the
communication settings for the first 4 ports (8 ports for a PC-1). However, it is possible that it will not be
possible to communicate with the remote RTU afterwards.
Do not hot swap any module on a connected rack while downloading RTU Configuration.
Configuration, logic and ladder can be downloaded via any port, including via remote RTUs, providing a
reliable connection exists.
Once the local RTU has been cold started, select Configuration, Download RTU Config.
When attempting to download a configuration with a different
address to the local RTU, this window will appear.
To download the configuration and update the address of the
local RTU select Local.
To download the configuration to a remote RTU select
Network.
When downloading to a network (remote) RTU, enter the
address of the network RTU to configure and then select OK.
By default, Toolbox uses the address in the configuration file.
Before ladder logic can be downloaded, it must first be
compiled. Please see the topic Ladder Logic Examples -
Downloading Ladder Logic for more information.
A warm start will occur after downloading the RTU
configuration.
Please see the topic Getting Started - Communicating With
An RTU for more information.
