11.7 Replacing a Device Template File
If the physical device connected to the serial or TCP-IP communication
port is replaced with another kind of device, you must also replace the
device template file for the device in XBuilder.
To replace a device template file
1 In the network pane, right-click the device you want to replace,
and click Replace Device Template.
2 In the Open dialog box, click the required device template file,
and click Open.
11.8 Device Template Not Found
You can open an XBuilder project on another computer than the one
you used when you developed the project. But since all device template
files, by default, are stored in the library folder
C:\Program Files\TAC\Device Library, it is likely that the device tem-
plate files used in your project are missing on the other computer. This
situation is detected by XBuilder if you choose to modify the device
template used in the project using the Edit Device Template command.
A message similar to the following appears:
• If the file is stored elsewhere, click Browse and locate the file.
• If the file is not stored on the computer, click Use Project.
If you choose to use the project’s local device file, a device template file
is automatically created and stored in the folder
C:\Program Files\TAC\Device Library on the computer.
Notes
• If you replace the device template file for a device, a connection
between the device and a signal in XBuilder remains if the signal
names in the old and the new device template files are the same.
• The name, description and address of the device are not changed
when you replace a device.
