Hi, first question: What firmware does you S7-1200 have. With older ones (iE. V1.x) you can´t download in Run but you can do a firmware update. Please check manual i.E. on page 208 / Chapter 7.7 SIMATIC S7 S7-1200 Programmable controllerRegards, Towome

You can only update a running s7-1200 PLC program. And only in relative minor ways. If you need to make major changes, it is very complicated not to require a PLC stop, download / restart. Look in the s7-1200 system manual for online changes plus the F1-Help has information on this. There are limits to what you can do, but if you absolutely cannot shut down the running process, you can make copies of existing DBs that you may need to change, download the new DBs, and then start using them by slowly sending updates to FBs/FCs/OBs. If you create a new UDT, you will require a restart of the PLC. It may be possible to slowly make a PLC modification in this way, but to honest it is much safer and less headache to schedule the downtown and deploy the updates all at once.
