Saving/Sending the Project Archive Permalink

You can configure a project archive and then save it in the file system or send it directly in an e-mail.

To send, follow the guide below as far as point 9. There you click the “Send” button instead of “Save” to open the default email program from there. A new email is automatically created there with the project archive in the attachment.

Requirement: A project is open.

  1. Click “File  Project Archive  Save/Send Archive”.

    The “Project Archive” dialog opens.

  2. Select the check box next to each object that is to be saved in the archive.

    Due to the know-how protection, CODESYS does not automatically accept libraries, which are unprotected (meaning that they do not as exist as "compiled-library"), into the project archive. If you explicitly select this kind of library in the list of information to be included, then you will receive a respective warning.

  3. To add more files to the archive, click “Additional Files”.

    The “Additional Files” dialog opens.

  4. Click “Add”.

  5. Select the files and click “Open”.

    The files are added to the list of additional files.

  6. Click “OK”.

  7. Click “Comment”.

    The dialog “Comment” opens.

  8. Enter a comment and click “OK”.

  9. Click the “Save” button.

  10. Select a location and a file name and click “Save”.

    The project archive is saved in the file directory.
