ABB AC500 Compiled Code Upload

Hi.

Question goes to the guys who works with ABB AC500 PLC's.


Is it possible to upload the compiled code from a AC500 CPU ?. My case is that i have a AC500 CPU without the project file stored on it, so i am looking into storing a backup on my PC of the CPU program in case something goes wrong.

Rgds.

The AC500 Automation Builder is Codesys branded ABB.
You should definately be able to upload the code from the PLC to your computer, provided there is code in the PLC. When downloading to the PLC you can update the boot project so in case of a cold restart it will use that one regardless of online changes.
