Hi everyone.
I used Simatic manager to retrieve a program of a press no 5. Lovely all the comments and the protools screen. Now I save it as press 6. I then went online to a new machine that came in very similar to press 5 actually almost identical. I wanted to upload to PG as press 6. Instead it uploaded simatic 300(2).
great after alot of farting around I managed to get the greyed out 'upload to pg' active (not upload station to pg)then I uploaded all the blocks and compared to online it is the same now I can begin monitoring etc.
I did try copy the symbols straight in to a backup but there are UDT's etc and it caused too many errors so this was the better way.
I then deleted Simens 300(2) and am now left with a program called press 6 with all the comments and it is the same as the online PLC.
IS THERE A BETTER/QUICKER WAY ?
