Hi All,
Is it possible to backup/upload a program from a PLC while it is Running a process and we can not stop the process? Or do we have to switch to program mode or go offline to save a program?
Also, what is to be done to save a program with all the descriptions and i/o details etc? I saved a program recently and it didn't have any descriptions .
I am trying to save a program in micrologix 1400 to my laptop using RSlogix 500 but the PLC is running a process right now and I don't want to disturb that.
The PLC is communicating with the panelview HMI using ethernet cable. I want to use Serial cable DF1 driver to save the program and let the PLC keep on communicating using the ethernet cable.
Please let me know if it is feasible or not and any way out..
Thanks in advance .
