I'm Loosing Descriptions of PLC5 Symbols when I go online with PLC. Ussually I can merge the files, except for this time it blows by the pop up screen to do this.
All this started when I wanted to look at a PLC in the field to help our electricians troubleshoot a problem. I the DCS SA and really haven't delt much with PLC's. The program version that the PLC' thinks it has is version5, the version it is running is 7. I made a copy of seven and called it 5 for the purpose of going online with it. I've had to to this in the past. Usssually I get the pop up that says to either create a new file or if I find an existing file ie version5 I can Merge with it. RSlinx blows by this screen. Any help.
