Currently appear to have an issue with an interface module. We have been up and down on one of our junction boxes. Current symptoms:

-Link light is lit

-Can ping remote i/o 

-Green light is flashing on the IM module

-Interface Tab for module Show Conflicts: Data transmission error.

-Cannot see module in available "Accessible Nodes"

We want to replace the old interface card but have a newer one. Do I need to redo all the configuration for that remote i/o or is there an easier way. Using Simatic Manager V 5.6 +sp2
