Automation Builer 2.2 cant select controllers.
Formerly in AB 1.2 there was a menu "Go online" on every device but now the go onlice option is fixed to a device that cannot be selected to for example to upgrade the firmware.
Is there a way to select which controller is used to go online?, i had to split the project into different files for every controller which is unconfortable.

Hi,
In the below figure, assume CM574 projects as controller projects.
In AB projects prior to V2.0, the communication channel settings for each controller could be configured via Codesys application as well. However, from V2.0 onwards the Communication Parameters (CP) setting page is available only from Automation Builder application.
In the CP page (Advanced Settings) define channel level settings for each controller. Once the settings have been done, use the ‘Download Manager Tool’ to download the AB controller project to any of the desired controllers by checking the boxes in ‘Download’ column.
Click on Update Download Info button .After the status for each controller is updated, then proceed with download.
Once the project is downloaded to the controllers, open the respective controller’s Codesys program and go Online Via Online>>Login option.
As a final step create Boot Project.
Note: The Log-in option available in the AB menu AFAIK is used to Log-in to a Controller's Diagnostics page.

Rahil
