Hello,
Why is it that when making more than a few networks and adding a few new tags, I must always reset the plc memory before downloading the new blocks? I find this to be a huge problem compared to Allen Bradley because I never have to worry about the plc stopping or a block not functioning anymore because it will not download due to some bottleneck error. Is there something that I am missing? Normally with AB I make as many changes as I want and then just download and no questions pop up or I don't need to worry about the plc or machine stopping because of my new changes. I am bit a afraid with S7 to make changes while the machine is running because sometimes I get this bottleneck error and asks me if I want to compress the blocks to save memory. The plc still has over 50% memory left. How can I avoid this?
Thanks!
