I have a s7-200 that I am using to gather some production data from a process. But if I make changes to the program I lose any gathered data (Real numbers and single letter strings that are set via a TD200C). Although all retentive counters in the program do retain their value.
The ranges are set to be retentive in the system block but I think this only applies to retentivity after a power loss.
So my question is, can I keep this data intact when I download a new modified project to the PLC...?
