12.22.3 Logout
Default Shortcut: <Ctrl> + <F8>
This command (category Online) effects an log out of the application. It disconnects
the programming system from the target device (PLC or simulation target) and thus
changes into the offline mode.
If the command is called from the Online menu, the currently active application will be
concerned. If the command is called from the context menu when an application
object is selected in the device tree, then the selected application will be affected, no
matter whether it is set active.
12.22.4 Create boot application
This command (category Online) is available in online or offline mode for creating a
boot project, also named "boot application". The boot application serves the purpose to
provide an application on the PLC, which will be loaded automatically when the PLC
gets started.
Use in online mode:
The boot application automatically will be stored as <application name>.app on the
PLC.
Use in offline mode:
The standard dialog for saving a file will be opened. Select a folder, where you want to
store the current application as boot application file. Automatically the file filter is
"Boot application files" and extension ".app" will be applied to the defined file name.
So you might store the boot project in any folder in order to transfer it to a PLC later.
After confirming with Save a further dialog will appear, where you will be asked,
whether a possibly already existing compile information file in the project folder
should be overwritten:
Abb. 196 Dialog for saving new boot project reference data
Choose Yes, if you intend to transfer the new boot application file to the PLC by an
external tool, but want to log in to this application later without being forced to
perform a new download. This namely would be the case, if due to a previous
application download already a compile info file would exist (containing code and
reference data of this previous application) which of course would not match with that
of the new boot application.
