Write the Configuration to the SCADAPack 575 Device
After you have built the logic application, you have to write the configuration to the SCADAPack 575 device. This comprises the configuration that you created in Geo SCADA Expert along with the empty SCADAPack x70 logic application.
To write the configuration to the SCADAPack 575 device:
- In the Network View pane in RemoteConnect, in My Network tree, select the SCADAPack x70 Controller Settings -DeviceDTM node.
- In the Network View pane, select the Online button to connect to the SCADAPack device.
- Select the Write button in the Network View pane to write the configuration to the SCADAPack x70 device.
- Select the Offline button to close the connection to the SCADAPack device.
- Close the RemoteConnect application.
Once the configuration has been written to the SCADAPack 575 device it will restart and is then ready to communicate with Geo SCADA Expert. You can now proceed to Create the Protocol-Specific Items and the Mimic.
Now the SCADAPack 575 device has been configured. You can now connect the device to your network using an Ethernet cable. You plug the cable into the Ethernet 1 port (see Set Up the SCADAPack 575 Device and see Create a SCADAPack 575 Device Configuration Item). See the hardware documentation for the SCADAPack 575 for information about the type of cable that you can use.
