Defining settings on the operating unit
• Activate Download mode on the operating unit:
The Download mode setting is dependent on the respective operating unit. In the

means of an applet in the Control Panel. In the case of other units, e.g. PC and TP
170A, Download mode can be activated from the Loader menu while the unit is
starting up.
The storage location for project file and source file has a default setting.
