Loading recipe values from the controller

You can apply recipe values on the controller to recipe definitions in the project, even if these definitions have been modified in the project.

Requirement: The “Recipe management in the PLC” is option is selected in the Recipe Manager.

  1. Create a recipe definition ‎RecDef1‎ in the project, containing the variables ‎PLC_PRG.ivar‎ and ‎PLC_PRG.bvar‎. Insert a recipe “R1”: value for ‎PLC_PRG.ivar‎: ‎33‎; value for ‎PLC_PRG.bvar‎: ‎TRUE‎.

  2. Log in to the controller and download the application.

    The recipe file ‎R1.RecDef1.txtrecipe‎ is saved to the default directory of the controller ($PlcLogic$).

  3. Logout and add another variable ‎PLC_PRG.dwvar‎ to the recipe definition in the project.

  4. Edit the recipe definition file ‎R1.RecDef1.txtrecipe‎ on the device by changing the value for ‎PLC_PRG.ivar‎ from ‎33‎ to ‎34‎.

    Moreover, add another recipe “R2” on the device. To do this, copy the ‎R1.RecDef1.txtrecipe‎ and rename it to ‎R2.RecDef1.txtrecipe‎. Then edit this file and change the recipe values: ‎PLC_PRG.ivar‎: ‎1‎, ‎PLC_PRG.bvar‎: ‎FALSE‎.

    Now two recipes “R1” and “R2” are available on the device. In the project, there is only “R1”, and it also contains other values than “R1” on the device.

  5. Log in to the controller by means of an online change.

  6. Click “Load Recipes from Device” from the context menu.

    A dialog prompt notifies you that executing the command at the next login may trigger an online change, and that the recipes on the runtime system will overwrite the recipes of the current recipe definition.

  7. Confirm that you want to continue.

    A dialog prompt notifies you that the recipe for ‎PLC_PRG.dwvar‎ loaded on the device cannot yield a value from the controller.

  8. Confirm that you want to continue.

    The value of ‎PLC_PRG.ivar‎ in recipe “R1” of the recipe definition in the project changes to ‎34‎. The recipe “R2” with the values ‎1‎ and ‎FALSE‎ is also listed in the recipe definition now. ‎PLC_PRG.dwvar‎ remains in the recipe definition.
