 Posted: 04/08/2013 08:30 Post subject: Need help in pcs7, chart copy/paste issue |
 |
|
hi all, am new to pcs7 so forgive my bad scientific language. i have a working project and i needed to do some testing on a special chart (named 1250) inside the project so i did the following:
1- renamed chart "1250" to "1250_"
2- cut and paste it into a temp project
3- copy a testing "1250" chart to the working project.
4- download the program to plc and complete my testing.
5- bring back the old chart into the working project and rename back from "1250_" "1250"
6- download the program to plc
I expected everything will be back to normal. the problem is that WinCC graphical representation related to this "1250" chart is not operating (seems that connection between the graphical representation and the chart is broken". When i run my project in WinCC runtime i see every thing related to this chart is "dashed"
I appreciate your urgent help |

First you have to make Update Block Types in the base project.
Then in Component View copy FBx associated and paste to the second project (in the Component View).
Now open any existing CFC in project 2 and import (or Update Block Types) FBx.
Only then try to copy your CFC again.
You can't copy CFC when the used FBs are not up to date in both projects.
Then Compile OS to update all... |

thanks rott, but I only have one project. the other one is temp project (have some charts and FB) and its not into operation. what I did is I move my chart to another location -- rename it -- compile and download -- bring back my chart and rename it to original---- compiler and download.
Do I need to update the block types and copy the associated FBx back and forth between the two project.
I have one more question. What do u mean exactly by "Compile OS" is it charts compilation or Wincc HMI program Compilation? |
