Fieldbus Configuration Library - Creating a Global Fieldbus Configuration from an Existing Fieldbus Configuration

Select a controller (containing the desired fieldbus configuration) in the Plant structure workspace .

Select Fieldbus & SoftPlc in the menu bar.

In the Fieldbus menu select one or more fieldbus signal configurations to add to the library. Select Manage then Add to library from the drop-down menu.

• The Create global configuration dialog window opens. Select Create.

The selected local configuration will become a global configuration, stored in the Global Fieldbus configuration library.

If local changes are made in the controller or web GUI, the two options below are available:

• Auto revert: Changes in the controller will not apply to the global fieldbus configuration, the global configurations will still be applied.

• Unlink: Changes in the controller will apply to the fieldbus configuration in the controller, and the link to the global configuration will be cut. As a result, the global fieldbus configuration is immediately removed from the distribution list to the controller.

Select Library in the left-side menu bar.

Go to Global fieldbus library .

The workspace shows a list of Global fieldbus configurations and the newly added fieldbus configuration is now visible in the list.
