Spyder Configuration View
In Spyder Configuration Service View, you can configure Spyder tool related options
such as setting free heap memory and the number of download retries.
To open Spyder Configuration view:
- On the Nav palette, browse to Station > Config > Services >
Spyder Configuration. The Spyder Configuration screen appears.
- The Spyder Configuration View screen appears.
- Compile While Unload: Select Compile While Unload option. The available
options are True and False.
Note: Setting Compile While Unload to
true will compile the logic each time the device is set to Normal mode. This
enables background compilation without having the user to invoke compile
explicitly.
- Download Retries: Enter the number of Download Retries.
You can opt for a maximum of five retries.
- Free
Heap To Maintain: When the user invokes Engineering Mode, the tool checks
to ensure that the free heap in the station is greater than Free
Heap To Maintain parameter value and then loads ControlProgram into
station.
Note: This field applies to JACE only and can be
configured if the station is running in the JACE.
- Validate for Warnings: When Validate option is invoked
on a Spyder device or set as True, apart from errors in the
tool, it also validates the Control Program application for warnings. Else,
validation does not look for warnings.
When Validate for Warnings field is set to False,
Validation completes a little quicker.
- Click Save to save the configuration settings.
