I am sure that I seem very stupid at this point for asking such an elementary question. I have for the most part only worked with AB products. I have been asked to make some modifications to a Siemens CPU314C-2DP processor. I have been able to set up the PG/PC interface and upload the program existing in the processor. My questions come when I try to monitor, change, and download program modifications. I think I have read somewhere that when you download to the PLC it goes to a CF memory card and is read sometime by the PLC to check for program changes.
If some of you could walk me through a simple how to monitor, online edit, and download directly to the PLC, or explain how PG to CF to PLC works I would greatly appreciate the help.
