When exporting a project in ControlLogix, what is typically primarily preserved?

When exporting a project in ControlLogix, the primary focus is on preserving the project configuration and settings. This includes critical elements such as the structure of the project, the arrangement of tags, and any defined routines and programs. These details are essential for ensuring that the project can be fully reconstructed in a different environment or on a different machine, maintaining the functionality and behavior intended by the original project creator.

While user access levels, network parameters, and source code are important aspects of a project, they do not encapsulate the full breadth of configuration and settings that are critical for a successful export. User access levels pertain more to security and permissions, which may not be considered fundamental in the context of project export. Network parameters are specific to the operational environment and may change depending on the new installation. Source code is also integral to the project but is just one component under the broader umbrella of project configuration and settings. Thus, the preservation of the project configuration and settings during an export ensures that the project can be fully functional and operational when it is imported or transferred.
