So, every time I disconnect from my PLC, change my Local network connection to work on other things, and come back to my PLC… I can connect to the controller, but I cannot open debug to see my values in the PLC unless I rewrite the program to the PLC and upon doing so, it starts my counters and timers back to my INIT value. How can I go online WITHOUT having to do this every time to open my program while the PLC is running? This is quite annoying.
Hello, you need to sign in on the PLC before debugging is possible. [attachment]Debug-Projects_OnPLC.jpg[/attachment] Also the Project may not change if you want to debug it. There is also the Posibility to „Write Changes“ instead. (when doing small changes this will keep the PLC running while exchanging the executed code.) kind regards, Oliver
Hi AC, I’ve just tried to reproduce what you describe with PLCnext Engineer 2021.0.3 and an AXC F 2152 with FW 2021.0.5, but so far I were always able to reconnect in Debug mode. Enigneer normaly only declines the Debug connection when it „thinks“ that a different version is on the PLC and ask for a new download… But maybe I miss something, can you please describe a bit more detailed the procedure and which version of Engineer and Firmware you are using? BR, Frank
Hey guys, I think that I may have found my problem. I have always used dropbox to save all of my PLC files for programs and I noticed the other day after I had made a change I got an error that a file was unavailable (I believe it was being uploaded and saved to dropbox) After which I was able to connect to the PLC but was unable to go into Debug mode. I will see if I can repeat this but I do have this happen quite often when I am connected to the internet (hence changing my IP address to reconnect to the internet where dropbox would become active again and begin to sync my files) I hope that this is it because it is an easy fix. I will update when I find something out.
