Clone/Duplicate a Machine
In the Studio 5000 Logix Designer application, configurations for all IO-Link devices in a
system can be saved into one project file (.ACD).
The IO-Link device configuration values are saved when ADC is enabled, or when ADC is
disabled but Device Correlation Check has been performed.
With one ACD file, you can manage and replicate an entire project onto another system with
the same physical setup by downloading the identical configuration to the controller and
devices.
You can also use the ACD file to recover the configuration data for your IO-Link
devices.
To help ensure that your ACD file contains the latest IO-Link device configuration values,
complete these steps.
- Go online with your project.
- In the IO-Link device Module Properties > Configuration view, perform Device Correlation Check.
- Select either “Use Project Values” or “Use Device Values” as appropriate and select Apply.
- Repeat these steps for each device in your system configuration.
- After you have synchronized the configuration data for all your devices, save the project.
