We have had a program written and our programmer sent us the program file with a .SNP file extension. We are an end user and do not have the Soft Comfort software. From reading the manual for the Logo! I should be able to load a program into the PLC from an SD card. However when I try this nothing happens. The PLC does not read the program file at start up. Having spoken to my programmer he is of the opinion that you can ONLY download a program made in Soft Comfort via a laptop connected to a Logo PLC, and only then can you copy the program to a SD Card for back up purposes or to load into another Logo. Could someone please clarify as the user manual for the Logo is not clear on this.

The LOGO! program must be saved as a "binary dump" (file extension .bin). The file then automatically contains the only name that is permissible: LOGO_U_P.bin. Edit: If you want you can send me the SNP file via personal message (PM). Then I send the program as a binary dump file (LOGO_U_P.bin) return via PM.
