Installing the Station Setup Application
The condensed Station Setup installation has full controller configuration functionality, but also some limitations:
The entire installation has a smaller footprint and is installed on a portable computer.
Only one physical controller can be managed at a time.
The computer is connected to the service port of the controller to avoid interruption of normal activity.
Applications
The typical application for this mode of operation can be the following:
A controller can be accessed using ToolsTalk 2 without connecting to the customer network but instead using the service port of the controller.
Offline configuration of controllers using the controller library features. The configuration file can later be transferred to a real controller for verification.
An easy export of a controller configuration that is very helpful in debugging tasks.
