Good evening PLCS.net
Does anyone know how to upload the master config file from a profibus scanner? I have an SST-PFB-PLC5 attached to PLC 5/40. (Actually I have the same set-up on 17 machines)
The dept. "Crash cart" was upgraded recently and somehow the config files were lost in the conversion, so I need to get them all backed up. I have the v2.02 software and user guide, but I can't find anything in it about uploading files, only downloading them. Does the file have to be exported from the scanner in binary? Or can it only be obtained from the scanner's flash drive, and if so, what is the procedure for that?
Sorry for all the questions, but I've never had to work on the profi before, only had to work with the data in the PLC, and the user guide is not very helpful, and I've had a hard time finding other reference material online.
Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks guys.
