TIA13 - Device Proxy Data ?

Hi,

You can work two people in differnet projects on differnet computers. and then merge the data to one project. I havent tried it but, i will share when or if i Do. You can search help on (IPE) Inter project engineering. It is the first stepto implemetn TIA multiuser capability.

From Help:

"What is IPE?

You can use the IPE (Inter Project Engineering) function to read in controller data from other TIA Portal projects and use it for configuring. IPE enables you to transfer and merge the HMI configuration and PLC programming communication into various TIA Portal projects."

"

"How does initialization of a device proxy via an IPE file work?
You can exchange controller data between two or more projects using IPE files.
Due to their small data volume, you can send IPE files by e-mail, for example.
You can create multiple IPE files with different device proxy data for each PLC.
A device proxy can only be filled with one device proxy data record in the target project."

Pleasse share if anyone tested this
