Creating jobs
When working with SICK sensors, the files with the ending SDD for the devices, that are to be backed up, must be available on the versiondog server (or on an Agent). You can download the SDD files from the device in SOPAS ET.
Note
Alternatively, you can copy the SDD files from a computer on which SOPAS ET is installed to the
versiondog server (or to the agent). The default data storage location for SDD files is {ProgramData}SICKSOPASjarsdevices. The location where versiondog searches for the SDD files can be modified in the AdminClient.
In some cases, there is only one JAR file for the sensor to be saved. In this case, you must copy the JAR file and change the file extension from JAR to SDD before continuing.

To create jobs for Sick sensors
- Start the AdminClient.
- Go to the Jobs module.
- Create a job with the upload type SICKÂ Sensors.
- Configure the sections General and Upload and compare.
- Configure the section Sick Sensors settings.
In Project, select the project file (which contains the connection parameters for the device).
Note
versiondog supports SOPAS files and SDV files. A SOPAS file can contain connection parameters for multiple devices, a SDV file can only contain connection parameters for one device.
- Save the job and execute it.
Note
If several devices are backed up at the same time with one job and an error occurs with at least one of these devices
during job execution, versiondog issues a warning in the job result. If errors occur for all devices that you are trying to backup, an error message will appear and the job will be cancelled.
