Configure to Route Enable a Production Line

About this task

Only if a production line is route-enabled, you can use it in the discrete applications. This topic describes how to route-enable a production line and use it in the discrete applications.

Procedure

  1. To use a production line in discrete applications, route-enable each production line that you want to use by right-clicking the production line, and selecting Route enabled <name of the production line>. For more information, refer to the About Enabling a Production Line for Using a Route topic in the Plant Applications Administrator Help.
  2. To import route-enabled production lines from one Plant Applications server to another, perform the following steps:
    1. Export the production lines and related data from the source server.
    2. In the destination server, create a sample production line, and add a sample unit.
    3. Right-click the production line that you have created, and select Route enabled <name of the production line>.
    4. Import the production lines and related data to the destination server.
    5. Right-click each production line that you have imported, and then select Route enabled <name of the production line>.

      You can now use the production lines in discrete applications using the destination Plant Applications server.
