Download the Application

• Click the Compile and Download or the Download button.
  The application is compiled and downloaded or just downloaded to the controller.
  • If you enabled the "Download Project Source in the controller" option in the Controller Properties dialog box (see Configure the Controller) then the source code is also copied to the controller.
  • If you disabled the "Download Project Source in the controller" option and the controller has project source loaded you will be prompted with a message. The message presented will vary, based on whether your current project and the project on the controller have the same name or not.

    Project Names	Message	Actions
    Same name		OK: Source on controller is deleted. Save: Source on controller is overwritten and is also saved to "My Documents". If that source file already exists in My Documents you will be prompted to rename the source file, overwrite that file or not. If you do not rename or overwrite the file then the download to the controller will be canceled. Cancel: Download is stopped.
    Different name		OK: Source on the controller will be replaced. Save: Source on the controller will be saved to "My Documents" as above. Cancel: Download is stopped.

  • You will be prompted with an alert if there is not sufficient space on the controller for the application. Clearing the User Data is one method to create more space on a PDMM or PCMM.

• The versions between the KAS IDE"Integrated development environment" An integrated development environment is a type of computer software that assists computer programmers in developing software. IDEs normally consist of a source code editor, a compiler and/or interpreter, build-automation tools, and a debugger and the KAS RuntimeIn computer science, runtime (or run-time) describes the operation of a computer program, the duration of its execution, from beginning to termination (compare compile time). Within KAS, runtime also refers to the virtual machine that manage the program written in a computer language while it is running must be the same if you want to be able to debug your application (for example to display the animated values in the editors).

• If the IDE version differs from the runtimeIn computer science, runtime (or run-time) describes the operation of a computer program, the duration of its execution, from beginning to termination (compare compile time). Within KAS, runtime also refers to the virtual machine that manage the program written in a computer language while it is running after compiling an application, the function blocks defined in the IDE and those implemented in the virtual machine of the runtime can possibly be different. To prevent this potential mismatch, you must compile and download your application again.

• In addition to downloading the application to the controller's flash memory, you can download the project's source code, allowing you to store the project. See File Menu for information on retrieving saved projects.
