SO, right click on the PLC in the project tree and:
- compile HW (rebuild all)
- compile SW (rebuild all)
- download to device (HW & SW)
This worked!!!
In the (admittedly short) time I've been working on TIA Portal, I've NEVER done a compilation of the HW...in fact, when I selected PLC > Compile, the only options I saw were for SW download.
Then I realised, I had to be OFFLINE to be able to compile the HW!
So, I went OFFLINE and did your 3 steps above.
And "Bingo!" I can now reach 192.168.0.1. (see pics)
Then, On the web page, I logged in with my Admin01 account (having bumped up the privilege from Minimum to Administrative) and clicked on "Data Log".
Unfortunately, the file was empty - The filename is correct ('Report_Summary.csv'), but it didn't even contain the column Headers I was expecting to see - see pic - so I need to look into this. Why's the file empty?
Anyway, this is a huge step forward for me.
Lesson learnt: If in doubt, do a full HW and SW compilation!
Cheers!
