Compile
Perform this action to compile the logic. It compiles the application under
ControlProgram, validates the application, if not already validated, and
generates binaries that can be downloaded to the controller at a later point in
time. It is not enabled in the Normal mode.
This action can be invoked even if the device is offline. This is useful in
offline engineering and increases download performance. You can create
application logic, compile the logic offline to the device, transfer the station
to the JACE, and perform a download.
This device action is enabled only in Engineering mode.
To Compile:
- On the Nav palette, browse to Station > Config > Drivers >
LonNetwork > LonSpyder.
Or,
Browse to Station > Config > Drivers > BacnetNetwork > BacnetSpyder.
- Right-click on device item and select Compile.A status
bar showing compilation progress appears.
- Click Close to exit from Compilation
progress dialog. Compilation job continues to run in the background whose
progress can be viewed in the Job Sidebar. When Compile is invoked on a
device residing in Station, completion of Compile operation is indicated by
the job completion status pop-up. When invoked on a device residing in
Spyder Library, job completion pop-up is not displayed, to
view this status go to device's Controller Summary View.
