Hi all,
I have a PLC, which I have the program for. I want to go online with it, confirm it's the same as my offline copy, and then upload it so that all the machine settings are saved in my file before I start making modifications.
In AB world, all I do is go online, save, and click yes to uploading all data. The current value of all tags is uploaded and saved in my file. If there are any changes it'll tell me about it when I upload and ask me what I want to do about it, and then I can run a compare if I want to.
How do I do the same thing with an S7-1200 using TIA Portal (v11, in case it matters)? I want to connect to the PLC and have it upload the current value of all data blocks and PLC tags, and save them to the file, so that when I download later on, I don't have to manually re-enter 100 machine settings.
Thanks!
