Getting Started
7. Select the desired synchronization options and subsystem assignments.
Create Shapes for all
Connected NVs/MTs
Adds shapes to functional blocks for all connected network variables
or message tags created by the resynchronization.
If this check box is cleared, the LonMaker tool will use generic
connections when possible. It will still create network variable or
message tag shapes for connections to supernodes and for those
functional blocks that already contain network variable or message
tag shapes.
Use Reference
Shapes for all
Connections
Represents all network variable connections created by the
resynchronization with reference connection shapes.
If this check box is cleared, the LonMaker tool will use standard
connection shapes for connections for network variable hubs and
targets located in the same subsystem. Reference connection shapes
are always used for connections that span subsystems.
Automatically Drop
Device, FB, and
Subsystem Shapes
Automatically adds shapes to the drawing for all devices, functional
blocks, and subsystems created by the resynchronization.
If this check box is cleared, the LonMaker tool will prompt the user
to select whether a shape should be added for a device, functional
block, or subsystem created by the resynchronization.
Minimize Drawings
during Resync
Minimizes all the drawings in the LonMaker network during the
resynchronization. This speeds up the resynchronization as it
reduces the time Visio spends updating the drawings.
Check for
Connections for
Missing FB Shapes
Enables the LonMaker tool to check for connections to functional
blocks that are in the LNS database but not represented by a shape in
the LonMaker drawing.
