Hi all!
When the power is off, VIPA 214-SER forgets all values in merker memory. What should I do to save some values (i.e. settings) even if the power is off?
 
Hello, Schtiel! Did you configure proper settings for retentive memory in HW config? You can define retentive MB quantity (starting from MB0) there. But good practice is to intend special DB for settings only, not to mix settings and process variables in M area.
 
I never worked with VIPA before so it was hard for me to find this solution. Thanks a lot, Gambrinus!
