Veganic Posted October 27, 2015 Report Posted October 27, 2015 We have a TP270 with a failing screen (vertical lines). If I can locate a replacement will I be able to update the new one with PROSAVE? Are there any "Gotchas" Would a hardware repair be possible / could the screen items be changed? Anyone have any experience or recommendations? Thanks.
Rodney Posted October 28, 2015 Report Posted October 28, 2015 From memory either back up using Prosave or exchanging the touch screen is quite straightforward. Rodney
Veganic Posted October 30, 2015 Author Report Posted October 30, 2015 OK, thanks, I've done it with the older units OP17 I think but I never seem to get the same job twice.
Rodney Posted October 30, 2015 Report Posted October 30, 2015 The TP's are easier than the OP's they automatically go to transfer mode and the cable is standard RS232. Rodney
Veganic Posted October 30, 2015 Author Report Posted October 30, 2015 Thanks again. Do you do much Siemens HMI work? Conversion of program to newer HMIs or repairs? The cost for replacements for these units which are near "end of life" is horrendous.
Rodney Posted November 2, 2015 Report Posted November 2, 2015 I used to do a number of projects in a previous life but I do not have the software any longer. Yes the price of these items horrendous. Rodney
