Synchronizing software databases

Installing Workbench on a Supervisor PC or engineering workstation makes all licensed software modules available. To update the modules in a remote host using the Supervisor station, you must first synchronize the Workbench and Supervisor databases.

  1. To open the Supervisor Software Manager in the Supervisor station, expand Config > Drivers > NiagaraNetwork > ProvisioningNwExt and double-click Software.
  2. Click the Sync Workbench button at the bottom of the window.
    One of the following happens:
    • If the Supervisor already has all the software installable files that are available in the Workbench database, a display window displays:

    • If installable files are available that the Supervisor does not have, an Add Software window lists the files, and asks if you wish to transfer them to the Supervisor

      .

  3. Click Yes or No depending on your needs.
