Question about writing ControlLogix EEPROM

[rahulkumardave]

Hello,

Does anybody know whether it is possible to store/transfer the PLC Program to EEPROM in case of ControlLogix PLC (1756-L62) without interruption? (Means when PLC is in Run Mode?)?

Your reply with the supporting document reference would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
--Rahul.

Wow, flashback to school where I am told to show my work.......

No you cannot store while the controller is running. Think about it. The data is constantly changing. How could it store with data changing. Take your pick:
