Creating a new project
6.1 Creating a new project
New projects are created by means of a wizard which issues a number of queries including
the file name and directory for the new project as well as the settings for the master, a
slave and a product.
X How to create a new project...
Go to the toolbar and click the
icon or select FileWNew to create a new project
by means of the wizard:
Detailed information about the individual steps can be found in the following sub-
sections.
After the basic settings have been selected by means of the wizard, you can add more
slaves and products to your project if required for your drive application.
6.1.1 Step 1: Defining the file name and directory for a project
I Tip!
We recommend to create a separate project directory for every new project. The
Cam Loader creates a subdirectory for each slave where the corresponding drive
data is stored.
• All path names within a project are relative and refer to the project directory.
• If you want to transfer a project to another PC, simply copy the project directory
to the corresponding PC.
