I converted an MER back into an APA once but cannot remember how I did it and Rockwell removed the instructions from the Knowledge Base. Does anyone know how to convert the MER back to an APA?
I think that the document mentioned here warns about NOT being able to restore Alarms.Select all the files within the “~MER.00” directory and copy them into the “Restored App” directory overwriting all the files in the “Restored App” directory. Now go and open the RSView Studio and select Restored App. Like I mentioned before you will certainly lose the alarm messages, but you can open the M_Alarms directory and read the MachineAlarms.mal file in notepad.
About de parameters I got to extract, but all the text, a simple text is lost. how a title or a button' name, when I open de rsview station all de names are ther, but when I' recovery all the names are lost.If the original program used the parameter file for displays like motor popups, then there is your problem. When you do the conversion it will not restore the parameter files.
