Downloading an offline App to the ACE engine

This procedure describes the steps to download (or push) a previously created Ace App (stored offline on your PC file system) to the ACE engine which is running in memory.
Prerequisites:
  • The PC is properly licensed and running the Niagara 4.8 Workbench
  • You have previously created the ACE App offline and saved it to your PC file system.

Perform the following steps:
  1. In the station Drivers node, expand the AceEdgeNetwork, right-click Local and click Ace Application > Download App.
  2. In the File Chooser window, select your previously created offline application and click OK.

    ACE App download job runs and a confirmation notice displays on-screen when finished. Also, the download job is visible in the JobService.

The offline ACE App is pushed to the Ace Device’s memory. At this point the App starts running immediately.
