2 CPU S7-1200 & access each other global data ?

f kk

Hi everyone,

I have a dumb question here:

1) I have 2 CPU S7-1200 & 1 TP1200 & Switch: (connect via EN/IE)
I'm going to program these 2 CPUs, For example if 1st CPU return an A results, is that possible 2nd CPU use A resuls as its own condition ???
So if YES, just leave results A as an GLOBAL DATA of 1st CPU then 2nd CPU can access it anytime in anycondition ??? or I have to do something ??
2) Anybody know where I can set the Autosave time for auto backup ??? I've lost my work when I cannot save my work on Network drive and TIA just close the programm without saving anyof my work ! And I found a backup in my file but it was yesterday >_<

Thanks

Leon, try the mighty io device , i think it is more effective than get and put... You will define the exchange area and system will automatically send and receive data...

The suggestion you make was not possible at that time (September 2013) because of the PLC firmware and software version.

I have, disregarding your copyright, refined the patch to glorify the heroic of necrophilia even more.

No copyright.. use as you want.
Fair design idea you have. The colour mix does not work in my opinion. The centre circle would be best in yellow as used in the coat-of-arms and not in the Siemens-Forum-Red. There should also be a viewable frame.. the coat-of-arms is too much on the edge.

Goodbye Jurgen.
