Old job-All AB...
New Job-All Siemens...
The idea is to take a new S7-1500 CPU and create a "ready to swap" backup for one of my machines. Had this been anything AB related Id have been done in 30 min. But thats no longer an option. Running TIA Portal V13, both CPUs are 6es7516-3an01-0ab0. New one is V2.5 old isV1.8. According to siemens docs I should be able to do this even with the FW version difference.
I go to running machine, upload to my PC, check for differences. Then take the same PC up to my bench to download. Set new device up as a visible device, already did a factory reset and format memory. Go to online file of running CPU, click download. Message board shows up with a security message (ignored) and a message about the FW version difference, which again according to Siemens, I should be able to ignore. Click load....and it fails. Immediately....from what I can see it is setting the LAN and Profinet port settings on the new CPU during this brief moment before failure.
Coming here to see if you can help because Im at witts end, youtube is no help and Siemens is dragging their feet. Ill try to attach some pics of the PC messages.
