What do you mean by back-up TIA?

It's possible to backup *values* from the PLC using a recipe in WinCC, for example.

Look at the Siemens Automation Tool. I've never used this, but it would do a backup of the PLC. Technically, you can create a button to execute the Automation Tool, on WinCC Advanced or Professional Runtime.

I've used the recipe tool in to provide a backup of say a machine parameters DB.

I don't believe there is a way to back up the actual code though. I'd be quite happy to be shown that I'm wrong though. Would be very useful.
