Library Repositories overview

Library repositories are collections of library objects.
Library Object Manager
 uses three kinds of repositories.
  • ACD: An ACD-based controller code file that includes library objects created in the
    Library Designer
    . These library objects are still part of the ACD file and must be published to a folder or
    Studio 5000®
    Application Code Manager
     database before they can be added to an
    Application Code Manager
     project. ACD files are first added to the
    Library Object Manager
     application, then mounted to make the library objects accessible to the program.
  • Folder: A new or existing Windows folder on the local computer or on a shared network drive. Individual library object files can be copied into remote folders for distribution.
  • ACM: Connects
    Library Object Manager
     to an instance of the
    Application Code Manager
     database.
Library objects can be copied between the different library repositories as needed.
