I was wondering if there was a way to send recipe data to an S7-1200 connected via ethernet to a PC, where the PC uploads a CSV file containing the data, or sends the recipe some other way?

In TIA portal it looks like there are only blocks to write CSV files and not read them, but I'm new to this!

Thank you :)
 
You need an OPC Server/ Client to exchange information from PC to PLC.
Can be a Siemens or 3th party solution.
 
The S7-1200 has open communications features, you could receive a string with TRCV_C, then parse and convert the data to a recipe. I use TSEND_C extensively, though to be honest I haven't used TRCV_C.
