Connect with
Trusted
controllers

Connect with the physical exact et
Trusted®
controller when developing an application. While connected, the
Trusted
controller executes the application in real-time mode. When connecting an application, the
AADvance-Trusted SIS Workstation software
verifies the coherency between the current application definitions and the compiled code on the
Trusted
controllers.
A
Trusted
controller supports a maximum of one connection from a
AADvance-Trusted SIS Workstation software
.
Prerequisites
  • Build the application code and download the code to the target.
    IMPORTANT: Modifications other than these to a project may affect the accuracy or availability of monitored values when connecting without rebuilding and downloading:
    • Minor graphical changes not affecting the execution order
    • Descriptive text such as comments, element descriptions, and diary entries
    • Migration from a legacy project
    • Addition to the global library of functions and function blocks not used in the project
    • Addition or removal of spy lists or ISaVIEW screens
To connect an application
  1. In the
    Properties
    window for the device, configure the
    Host Address
    and
    Host Socket Port
    properties.
  2. From the
    Project
    menu, select
    Connect Mode
    >
    Online
    . The
    Online
    menu displays online command options.
  3. Build the project code.
  4. Download the project code to the physical controller.
  5. In the
    Application View
    , select the
    Project
    element, and then select
    Online > Connect
    . The
    AADvance-Trusted SIS Workstation software
    saves the application state.
    TIP:
    • While connected, perform tasks that include:
      • monitor values of variables, diagnostic information, and ISaVIEW screens
      • lock and unlock the I/O channels of an I/O device
      • modify values of variables and cycle time
    • Upon disconnecting, the
      AADvance-Trusted SIS Workstation software
      returns the device to the state previous to connecting.
