Creating jobs

In octoplant, it is possible to execute jobs according to a schedule. A job certifies whether the program on the device corresponds to the version last checked in or whether the latest version has been implemented on the device.

In order to configure jobs for devices using Schneider PL7 PRO, proceed as follows

1. Start the AdminClient and open the Jobs module.
2. In the Project tree, select the Schneider PL7 PRO component.
3. In the menu tab, click on Create or drag-and-drop the components into the Jobs section.
4. Check in the section Job configuration, if the upload type Schneider PL7 PRO is being displayed.
5. Make sure the desired settings are in place for the following sections: General, Notification, Upload and compare, Create a version automatically after job run. The Notification and Create a version automatically after job run sections are only displayed if the necessary settings have been implemented.
6. Configure the Schneider PL7 PRO Settings.
   1. Use the Project drop-down menu to select the Schneider PL7 Pro project. This option is only relevant if there is more than one Schneider PL7 Pro project in the component.
   2. In Device, enter the IP address or name of the device.
   3. In Driver, enter the name of the Schneider PL7 PRO driver that matches the selected network.
   4. Normally, comparisons are executed using compare settings of the component. In the section File specifications and comparator settings, make the following changes:
      1. The table shows set compare and save behavior.
      2. Check the Enable custom configuration for this job checkbox and click on Edit. Set new parameters for the comparison and save process in the new open dialog.
