SIMOTION D4x5-2
330 Commissioning and Hardware Installation Manual, 02/2012
7.3.9 Upgrading a library
Depending on the configured properties of the libraries used in the project (device-
dependent or device-independent), an upgrade of the libraries may be required if the
SIMOTION device or the device version changes.
1. Open the LIBRARIES directory in the project navigator.
2. Select a library, right-click to open the context menu, and select "Properties...."
3. Select the "TPs/TOs" tab in the "Properties" window.
4. Select the SIMOTION device and the technology packages for which the library is to be
valid.
5. Close the dialog box with "OK".
Note
Please also observe the information on device-dependencies in the SIMOTION SCOUT
online help.
7.3.10 Save project, compile and check consistency
Procedure
1. Execute "Save and recompile all" ("Project" > "Save and recompile all" menu).
2. Then perform a consistency check ("Project" > "Check consistency" menu).
3. If error messages occur, correct these and repeat the operation.
Note
Note the difference between
• "Save and recompile all" and
• "Save and compile changes"
Save and recompile all
All sources of the entire project are recompiled with this command.
The command is suitable if you are quite sure that all the old data from older SCOUT
versions should be removed and replaced with new compilation results.
Use this command if you specifically want to convert a project from an earlier SCOUT
version to a newer version. In this way, you take over all error corrections and optimizations.
Save and compile changes
On this command, the whole project is searched for changes. Therefore only the changes
are compiled. Use this command for day-to-day operations within a SCOUT version.
