Good afternoon everyone.
I have created a tag array made from a UDT that stores numerous data points and values for all of the tools in a specific work area in my facility. This data will be used in 13 separate PLCs for very similar machines. NOTE: All PLCs are 1769-L30ER. I don't want to have to hand enter this data in each PLC and was wondering if there was a way to export it from one PLC and import it into another and still maintain the tag values in the array.
As an example:
Tool_Data.Tool[1].Tool_Name Value=Press Tool 123
Tool_Data.Tool[1].Cycle_Time Value=25
Tool_Data.Tool[1].Part_Number Value=A160987
Tool_Data.Tool[2].Tool_Name Value=Press Tool 234
Tool_Data.Tool[2].Cycle_Time Value=35
Tool_Data.Tool[2].Part_Number Value=A154897
all the way through Tool_Data.Tool[99].*****
How do you export that and then import it to another PLC with the values included?
Thanks in advance and have a great weekend.
