Retrieve a Project

When the LightDesigner project configuration file differs from the configuration on the connected Paradigm processor(s), the synchronization status will display as "Out of Sync" in the device list. Each Paradigm processor, and obviously the server, contains a full configuration file for the entire control system. Retrieving the configuration from any connected processor will provide a system-wide configuration. You can retrieve that configuration file from the Paradigm server or processor.

  1. Click the [Retrieve Project] button located in the Network view. The "Retrieve Project" dialog displays for processor selection.
  2. All connected Paradigm processors and the Central Control Server (when the project is a Server Project) will display in the list. Select the checkbox of the processor or server that you want to retrieve the project configuration file. You can only select one device from the list.
  3. Click [OK]. A "Save Project As" dialog displays for specification of the configuration filename.
  4. Specify the configuration filename and then click [Save] to continue.

When the retrieve configuration process is complete, the processors, and Central Control Server (when the project is a Server Project), will display as "In Sync" in the device list.
