So I think to create this topic to collect (with help of you) tips to help in this function. Here there are some check points about downloading configuration with WinCC Professional: - Is WinCC V11 and Windows compatible? (compatibility list stay in the link: /tf/WW/en/Posts/58714 ) - Have the product installation be done without errors or warnings? - Is the project compiled without errors or warnings? - Is the OS reachable via ping or the name? - Are both Systems in the same Workgroup or Domain? (MyComputer > Properties > Computer Name) - Have both Users the right authentication? (Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Local User and Groups > User > "user name" > Properties > Member Of > e.g SIMATIC HMI) - Can the user on the Engenniering Station have write access to the shared folder on the Runtime Station? (Shared folder write access to every one or to Engenniering Station User - in this case both PC should have the same user / password registred) - Can you see the OS in the simatic Shell? - Is the Data Execution Prevention deactivated? (Right click on My Computer > Properties > Advanced > Performance > Settings > Data Execution Prevention Turn on: DEP for essential Windows programs and services only) - Is the network adapters set in the right order? (Control Panel > Network Connections > Advanced > Advanced Settings (take a look at the connections here) - (For the case of downloading the PC Station configuration together with WinCC configuration: Is the name / configuration of the PC Station the same of the PC where WinCC Runtime is installed? In WinCC V11 > PC Station > right button > Configure PC Station online) - The FAQ http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/868014 has other point to be checked. (Despite it was original developed to older versions of WinCC; it can also be used for WinCC Prof. V11)
