Add the configuration file in the asset tree

You can place the file, folder or binder in the asset tree first, before assigning it to the
Configuration Data
 field.
To add the configuration file (file, folder, or binder), if it is in Archive (in the asset tree)
  1. In the left pane, navigate to and select the device or container with the file, folder, or binder you want to add to this device.
  2. (optional) In the filter field, select the type of files you wish to show. This is unavailable for a remote computer, robot device, or Siemens controller.
  3. In the right pane, select the file, folder, or binder you want to add to the device. For devices that can have only one file associated with them, such as an Allen-Bradley PLC-5 controller with a .rsp file, select a file. For devices that can have multiple files such as a robot, select a binder or folder. If using a folder, the entire folder will be associated with the device even though the folder will remain in its current location in the tree, so be sure to organize a folder containing only files for that device ahead of time.
  4. For Siemens S7 Controllers (STEP7) and Allen-Bradley PowerFlex Drive assets only
    Select the S7 program or the Allen-Bradley PowerFlex Drive device to use for disaster recovery operations. More than one S7 program or Allen-Bradley PowerFlex Drive device may be included in the binder. Only one S7 project or Allen-Bradley PowerFlex Drive project, however, can be included in the binder. You cannot select a S7 program or Allen-Bradley PowerFlex Drive device if more than one S7 project or Allen-Bradley PowerFlex Drive project is in the binder.
    1. If the
      Program Refresh
       button is available, click it. This updates the binder with any changes.
    2. In the
      Program
       list for S7 controllers or the
      Device
       list for Allen-Bradley PowerFlex Drive assets, select the one that you want to use.
  5. Click
    OK
    . Then click
    OK
     in the
    Device Properties
    dialog box or
    Add a Device
     dialog box.
