Hi,

I am trying to rebuild a project from uploaded file, my goal is to have perfectly matched SDB (offline/online) which has a couple of PROFIBUS and PROFINET devices. The upload was successful, except for problem with PROFIBUS connected drives, and to resolve that problem I deleted seven drives from HWConfig, added them again (same profibus address, same IO addresses), and used starter to import configuration of drives back from online connected devices. Now when I compare the SDB of offline and online project I get following messages

1. The Process Image partition (part process image) numbers of the modules with logical address 2 at profibus address 64 differ.
2. The slave parameter record of DP Slave with profibus address 2x is different.

Picture attached for reference.

Can anyone shed light on these messages, and what do they mean?

Also I don't have any device with PB address 64 on either offline/online project.

Regards,

Anas

Hello,

do you have the I/O Adresses 2 and 1026 in the project?
Can it be that 64 is the profibus address of the PLC?

the second message you get because you delete and recreate the drives.

If you do some changes on the HWConfig you will never get a complete matching of the SDB,

This depends on the used SW Versions and every change will modify the timestamps of the SDB.

Hello,

can it be that there is only online the Slave with address 64 ?
In some cases no all slaves can be uploaded to hwconfig because some gsd/gsdml file is missing.

Then such slaves/devices are not displayed in hwconfig.
