PLCNextBase_1_1_0 restart block

edited April 2020 in PLCnext Engineer

Hi,

 

I noticed that if I use the function block PBCL_SysRestart_1 from PLCNextBase library I loose the possibility to download changes, I have to download everything.

Is this a known issue or is it just a problem in my project?

I am using RFC4072s with fw 2020.0 LTS

 

Best regards Stefan

  • Hello Stefan,

    I assume you are unsing PLCnextBase 1.1. Use in the meaning of "instanciating" or "executing"? In case of "executing": The function block calls the <span class="n">DeviceControl</span><span class="p">.</span><span class="nf">RestartDevice</span> RSC service. Reaction of PLCnext Engineer is out of scope of the library.

    Kind regards

  • Hi Stefan,

    Can you please give us detailed steps on how to reproduce this problem? Please include the version of PLCnext Engineer you are using.

  • Hi!

    "D.Simon" The function block is working fine, the problem is that that the PLC has to go to stop when I am downloading the project.

    "Martin" I made a new project and tried just to implement the restart block and then it worked fine with downloading changes. But when I also implemented the SysNetwork block the download changes was not possible. If I removed the restart block and kept the SysNetwork block I could download changes again. Maybe it is when I combine the 2 blocks the PLC has problem to activate the downloaded project. 

    I'am using 2020.3

  • Hello Stefan,

    as far as I'm in my investigations I want to give you some feedback. The behavior is also reproducable with just the function block. I reported this as defect 466-2048 of the library and hope can be fixed with the next release which is planned for end of this month.

    Greetings

  • Hello D.Simon!

    Thanks for update, that sounds good.

    Br Stefan
