I've got a TP270 that has recipes on it. I'm using WinCC Flexible to program it. The problem is that I want to be able to upload the code from the HMI.
I have a list of questions that I'm stuck with and I apologise because some of the questions are probably very stupid..!
I think I need a flash card in order to "enable back transfer" as I download the project and therefore allow me to upload the project?
Assuming this is correct, am I right in thinking the 'flash card' goes in the CF slot of the HMI?
If this is correct, why does it let me download now with Flash selected instead of RAM?
Why doesn't it tell me I haven't got a Flash card or am I confusing what Flash and RAM are?
I have been given a card by my boss that has the following written on it "SiliconDrive CF 128Mb SSD-C12MI-3012 Silicon Systems". I fitted it into the HMI and a window popped up asking me to name the drivers (I think this was the message..) it defaulted to unknown card or something like that.. Is this card not suitable, do I need a Siemens branded card or am I doing something wrong?
I realise that there's a lot of questions here but I would really appreciated someone helping me through my confusion on this subject.
Many thanks
