Fig. 9-66 Compiling and Loading
In the menu that now opens, pressing the [Alt-E] shortcut opens the Edit
menu. The Compile menu command is selected, and executed by
pressing [RETURN].
The progress of the compiling process is indicated in the Compile win-
dow. Once the project has been completely compiled, the Compiling
messages window is opened, containing possible errors and/or warnings
and information. The compiled project files is stored under the same
name as the project file but with the .S3 filename extension, in the menu
tree directory belonging to the project. (In the example used here, this is
C:\PG\MACHINE1.C00\BT\B00\BT20_400.S3).
Example of an error and the required user response:
A new variable was inserted into a mask without entering this variable in
the variables file.
As a consequence, the error message "Universal Address of 'Name' out-
put variable is missing" is displayed.
To remedy the error, the Edit menu is opened from the Main menu, fol-
lowed by selecting the Variables file menu command, and executing it by
pressing [RETURN]. The new variable, complete with name and access
address, can now be entered in the variables file.
9.4.8 Transferring .S3 File to Operator Terminal
Once the project has been compiled error-free, the .S3 file can be loaded
into the operator terminal.
For this purpose, the operator terminal must be set to Download mode.
