Hey guys,
I have to take an upload of a program on an S71200 PLC to change a hardware config option and then redownload the program with this change to the device. The PLC also controls a Siemens IO device with the connection specified in the network tab in the old backup I currently have.
My question is, if I take an upload of only the PLC and change the configuration option, will this affect the connection between the PLC and the IO device when I re-download? Do I need to take an upload of the IO device as well and specify the connection before I download again? Or will the connection already be specified in the upload I take?
