Hello all,
I'm trying to upload a program backup from an old Siemens TP37 HMI. I don't have a backup so if I lose the program I have nothing to restore.
When I’m connected to the HMI network in ProSave I'm not able to communicate with the TP37 which I believe is because I don't have it in “Transfer Mode”. I'm unsure of how to do this and don't want to accidentally delete the program. When I boot up the TP37 I briefly see options for “Serial Download” and “Boot Configuration” but I can’t find any documentation that specifically states what to select to put the HMI into “Transfer Mode” while not wiping the program. I have found some Siemens documentation that seems to suggest selecting “Serial Download” will delete the program.
Any advice?
