Looking for an idea for a cheap way to load a modified program to an existing machine.
PLC5/11 and PanelView 600 setup.
Remote site is in China - not sure if they have PC and software.
If they do have what software they use: 6200 AI or RSlogix?
Machine made 7 years ago and we have all files available "as installed", it was written in AB6200 and PB v3.70.
So far I am thinking to use ATA FLASH card for PV and EEPROM card for PLC5.
ATA card is cheap, but EEPROM is a lot of money, still cheaper than pay to someone to fly there.
Also what will happen if PLC program does not work for some reason? How they will get the old program back?
Files I have were saved during installation in 1997.
Everyone thinks that noone made any changes, but can't say this for sure.
Any ideas?
