I got a machine with 6ES7 214-2BD23-0XB8. The CPU is connected to some analog and digital I/O modules and a TP 170 (6AV6 545-0BB15-2AX0). I' ve successfully communicate with the CPU, and tried to upload the program with a micro/win V4 SP6 installed on PG (PG M2, Win XP SP3). Dont know why every time the upload proses has reach above 95%, the micro/win displaying "Block version is a newer version and cannot be uploaded" . *Does anybody could help me solve this problem?* I also thanks to Mr.Wizard that told me the problem above might be caused by the WinXP SP3 incompatibility, does anyone know the solution of this? On the TP 170 "Transfer settings" the panel is set to communicate via MPI with 187,5 Kb speed. But on the Micro/win communication window the Port 0 and Port 1 speed 1s 9,2 kb. *Is this the reason why our TP 170 unable to communication with the PLC? or any other problem there?* Can we set the PLC communication port speed ? and could you tell me how?? I really thank you for your help. My best regards Simatix plc

Could be Controllers parameters. On both sides you need the same transmission parameters. simatix Can we set the PLC communication port speed ? and could you tell me how?? Yes you can, it is done in System block. Best regards, Wizard

We dont have any backup, so its impossible to download a new program to the CPU without backing it up first. Do you know how to solve the incompatibility problem between windows XP SP3 and microwin V4 SP6? or should i change My PG M2 OS into windows 2000? Thank you and best regards,
