Title: Cut and paste
Post by: cch1955 on July 26, 2007, 02:15:07 PM

Is there a safe way to copy circuits from one PLC program and paste them into another program?

Often you create a ladder construct that can be used again. I do no wish to create it a over agin contact by contact.

Any wisdom on how to do this?

Thanks

Rename the file.  Just a suggestion.

You can click on the Edit menu and select Copy Circuit to copy them into the clip board. Then open another file and navigate to the circuit where you want to paste to and then again click on "Edit" menu and select "Paste Circuit" and it should work.

Above work well in the same TriLogi Program, but not work between two TriLogi Program.

The copy or cut is not transfered to the Window's clipboard. Hence you can cut and paste between two different instance of the TRiLOGI program. Within the same instance of the TRiLOGI the cut or copy are stored into the private clipboard and therefore available to be pasted in another file.
