Set PMC Configuration

Use this function block to write a configuration to the PMC.

The input to this function is the readout of the standard XML configuration file that can be saved from the PMTool. See Loading and Saving Configuration

The file can be loaded into the SINT (byte) array using standing file I/O blocks for the PLC, more details are available in the File Example project provided in the release. See also the File I/O section of the corresponding Development Environment Setup help file.

For the configuration to take effect, the PMC must be rebooted. If using a real system and the Flyway layout was modified, a power cycle of the Flyways is required.
