Select a phase and unit to synchronize

Use these instructions to select a phase and unit.
To select a phase and unit to synchronize:
  1. In the
    Phase Classes
     box, select a phase class to associate with the new phase. Select a phase class to display a list of units in the
    Units
     box.
    TIP:
    The new phase is an instance of the phase class selected. Therefore, only phase classes that have the same parameters and reports as the new phase display.
  2. In the
    Units
     box, select a unit to contain the new phase.
    TIP:
    Only units that do not contain a phase based on the selected phase class are displayed, unless the selected phase is a material-based phase. A unit can only contain one phase based on a specific phase class, with the exception of material-based phase classes. Multiple phases based on a specific material-based phase class can be added in one unit.
  3. Select
    Continue
    . If selected a
    Resolution
     of
    Create in Area Model
     for more than one phase, the
    Select Phase and Unit
     dialog box displays again for the next phase.
    Repeat steps 1 - 3 or skip to
    Create a new phase and select a unit
     to create a new phase for the next phase.
    When synchronization of all selected phases is complete, the
    Synchronization Results Summary For Server:<data server name>
     dialog box opens.
    TIP:
    If
    Failed
    displays in the
    Result
    column, the reason displays in the
    Additional Information
     column.
  4. Review the displayed results of the synchronization. Phases that have a
    Result
     of
    Successful
     were created in the area model. Additionally, the phase name selected for the phase and the new Equipment ID are returned to the
    Logix Designer
     project file.
  5. If satisfied with the results, select
    Yes
     to save the
    Logix Designer
     project file.
    TIP:
    If
    not
    satisfied with the results, select
    No
    . The synchronization changes are not saved in the
    Logix Designer
     project file.
    The time and status of the synchronization displays in the
    Synchronize Logix5000 Data Servers
     window.
