Privacy Policy | Imprint | Prinect Know How | Prinect Release Notes Synchronization of the PDC configuration with the press After a press has been created in the Prinect Cockpit with the Device Assistant, you must synchronize the configuration of production data collection (PDC configuration) between the Prinect workflow and the press. If a press is newly created in the Prinect Cockpit with the "Direct connection of the press" connection type using the Device Assistant, it is necessary to configure and synchronize the connection to the Prinect workflow at the press control station. Only then can the job data be loaded at the press and operations (PDC messages) can be sent back from the control station to the Prinect workflow. First, you have to configure the "Workplace Interface" data storage. If this has not yet been done, follow the steps below: •Prinect Press Center. See Configure the "Workplace Interface" data storage in the Prinect Press Center. •CP2000 Center. See Configuring the data storage on the Prinect CP2000 Center for data exchange with the Prinect workflow. You must then synchronize the PDC configuration. The HEIDELBERG service team can help you with this. Why is a synchronization necessary? The figure shows why synchronization of the PDC configuration between the Prinect workflow and Prinect Press Center/Prinect CP2000 Center is required. The defined user data and operations (PDC messages) are identical in the Prinect workflow and on the press. In the following example, the user data and operations of an SM 102 and an SM 74 are not synchronized with the Master Data Store (MDS) of the Prinect workflow. In addition, one or more cost centers are defined on each of the machines. The cost centers are also transferred from the machines to the master data store during synchronization. If an MIS is connected to the Prinect workflow, these cost centers are required for cost recording at the MIS. •What happens without synchronization? •Which data is synchronized? •What needs to be taken into account in a system environment with MIS? •Performing a synchronization
