Add Binder dialog box

How do I open the Add Binder dialog box?
  1. To enter Design mode if you are not in it, click design_mode_button.
  2. In the Asset catalog, expand the
    File and Folder Items
    node.
  3. Drag a binder to a container or device in the Asset View.
Use the
Add Binder
dialog box to add a binder to the asset tree. You can place a binder under any device or container asset in the tree, although binders are only used as the Configuration Data for Siemens controllers, remote computers, generic FTP devices, Custom Devices, and Allen-Bradley PowerFlex Drive devices.
For Siemens S7 Controllers (STEP7):
Binders must include only one project. When setting up which program to use for Disaster Recovery schedules, you will not be able to select a program if more than one project is in the binder.
For Allen-Bradley PowerFlex Drive devices:
Binders must include the entire project folder of an Allen-Bradley PowerFlex Drive device, which is created using the Unified Device Configuration component (that is installed with Rockwell Automation Connected Components Workbench software). The entire project folder should include the Unified Device Configuration project folder, including the *.idf file, the *.iuux file, and the *.ccwsln file. If you select a folder that lacks of one or more of the above necessary files, the Backup (or Backup and Compare) schedules may fail.
