MCO 305 Design Guide__ PC Software Interface __MG.33.L5.02 – VLT® is a registered Danfoss trademark 67 Compile to fileThe Execute [F5] command will compile a program into a “machine-readable” binary version which is thendownloaded to the controller and executed. The Compile to file command is similar except that the compiledbinary version is not downloaded and executed. Instead, the binary version is saved in a “.bin” file on thePC hard drive. Binary “.bin” files can be managed using Controller → Programs.When Compile to file is selected, a dialog will be displayed allowing the user to specify the exact controllerhardware for which the program is to be compiled. Note that compiled binary versions are hardware-dependent and must be compiled for the hardware on which they will be executed. After this, a Save Asdialog will be displayed allowing the user to select the file name to be used to save the file. The file namewill default to the name of the program with “.bin” as a file extension. Only after this is the programcompiled and saved on disk.ACHTUNG!:This feature is available only if Binary file support in Settings → Options is enabled. Convert VLT 5000 > MCO 305This converter checks your previous programs, givesa summery of the required changes, and addscomments where changes have to be done. Note: Itdoes not change your program automatically, seesample with LINKGPAR command. Break allIf programs are executing in several controllers, then click on Development → Break all to abort all theexecuting programs. Note that this will only abort the programs running on controllers that share the sameconnection interface as the controller connected to this APOSS Window (e.g. multiple controllers on a fieldbus). Controllers connected using other interfaces are not affected.Also note that programs will be aborted even on those controllers that are not currently connected to anAPOSS Window. As long as the controller is using the same connection interface and is within the originalconnection ID scan range, then execution is stopped. For example, if controllers 1 and 2 are both on a fieldnetwork but APOSS is currently only connected to controller 1, then Break all will still abort programsrunning on both controllers 1 and 2.NB!:If an executing program is aborted while the drive is rotating, then the drive will slow down withthe maximum allowed deceleration. Start allThe Start all menu will send an ‘Execute’ command to all connected controllers that share the sameconnection interface as the controller connected to this APOSS Window. If you are testing software that runson multiple controllers in a network, then this is a quick way to start all controllers at the same time. Download allDevelopment → Download all displays the APOSS Download Mode dialog. This allows the .m file currentlybeing edited to be downloaded to multiple controllers.Please read Download → Programs for more details and options.
