Hi,
I have seen a couple of hints to that it should be possible to export a Simatic Net project as an .xdb file (or was it .xml ?).
But I havent been able to locate a real good instruction on how to do it.
My hope is that it can help me to backup an entire project and then let a 3rd party load it into the Station Configuration Editor.
As it is now, when an OPC server has to be installed, it has to be done by going thru all the steps that I have described in the guide in the downloads section. It is too complicated for most of my customers.
Note: I do not mean the archive/restore functionality for the STEP7/NCM project. I mean that the entire setup can be restored in one go.
Have anyone tried this ?
Or do anyone know of a good manual or FAQ about this ?
