8.5 Upload the PCD content and create a project
One day you might be confronted by a situation where you must debug a machine
where the source code has been lost. In such situations you need to upload
the program from the PLC and recreate the project.
Please note that you can upload programs which where written in FUPLA but
you’ll only get the “Instruction List” code which was created by the FUPLA
and not the drawings.
The four steps
for uploading a
project:
So. how can you upload the code then?
1: You have to upload the code from the PLC. The PG5 will create a file with
the extension *.upl
2: You can then disassemble the code and choose to either make a project or
3: Then analyze the new project and handle the system information.
4: At last you can make your changes to the program and rebuild the project
again.
STEP 1: Open a
new Project and
upload the code
First open a new project.
