During the download process, selecting the checkbox to include the source code zips the current project files and downloads them to the controller together with the compiled code. The zipped source can be used as a backup of the current project in case future modifications are necessary. It can be uploaded into the software development environment at a later time for editing and also provides another way to store the program in case of any data loss from third party servers or computers.
Note: While the controller does have 3.5MB of flash memory available, only 1.4MB of that is allocated to MotionWorksIEC project storage. This is because there are scenarios where two copies are stored on the controller (totaling 2.8MB, leaving 0.7MB free for other user files such as Configuration and Cam/Data files, which are not included as part of the "user project". A Controller Memory Chart follows at the bottom of this FAQ.
