Disable functions for performance does not work

I'm using the AXC F 2152 with version 2020.0 LTS.

To increase the performance I tried to execute the steps described in https://www.plcnext-community.net/en/hn-makers-blog/440-how-to-disable-system-components-in-the-plc-for-more-performance.html

When I did this the PLCNext on the PLC does not boot anymore.

I want to disable the Cloudfunxtion, Ethernet/IP, the EHMI and OPC UA to be able to increase the execution speed.

Are there needs for any other steps not described in the blog?

  • Hello,

    Can you please attach (or email me) the acf.settings file that you are using?

    We have discovered that if there is even a minor typo in this file, it can cause the plcnext runtime to silently fail.

    This may or may not be the problem in your case, but if you can post the file, we can check.

  • OK, please change all instances of the word "override" in your file, to "overridden".

    Hopefully this will fix the problem.

    I have already submitted a defect to the developers asking that the plcnext runtime not fail silently when the .acf.settings file does not match the required schema.

    Martin.

    ================================

    UPDATE (25.02.2020):

    Starting with firmware version 2019.9, the word override can be used instead of the word overridden in the .acf.settings file.

    override is the preferred attribute, but overridden will continue to be supported for backwards compatibility.

    No one has been able to tell me why override did not work in this case, while overridden did. I guess this will remain a mystery.

  • Thanks,  Now it works fine!
