Transfer System

Auto

When you send the project, GP-Pro EX automatically compares between the project system version and the GP system version, and, if necessary, downloads the system program ^*1, the protocol program^*2, and the font^*3 to the display unit.

These items are downloaded in the following cases:

When you perform a transfer when the display unit has no data (factory default)
If the system program (Runtime) version stored on the display unit is older than the GP-Pro EX version.
When old versions of protocol programs (drivers) are stored in the display unit, or when project device/PLC settings have been added or changed.
When a font not in the display unit was used in GP-Pro EX.

Forced transfer

After you format the GP and send a project, GP-Pro EX will forcibly download the system programs^*1, protocol programs^*2, and fonts ^*3 to the display unit.
