Capture snapshot of I/O data for simulation
Musicman44 replied to Musicman44's topic in CX-Programmer
I understand that but 2 things: The video appears to show that you can transfer while in monitor mode and When I go to monitor mode and transfer the data, it is reset back to original when I go back into monitor mode. -

This video shows transferring data while in monitor mode. Mine will not let me though... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5p3ai88WiLY -

I only need it to be a static configuration that can be manipulated manually. How do I write the XFER instruction to load the .mem file into cio like you suggested? -

Ok so how do I save my CIO data from a running PLC, save that to a I/O Conditions file, and use the replay on a simulation? -

Okay the problem was that I was in monitor mode. I changed to program mode and am able to transfer the memory. Everything looks great!... until I go back to monitor mode. Then all of the inputs go back to the way they were. Why is this happening? -

I am able to save the memory file like you said but when I try to click transfer to PLC, it is grayed out. -

Yeah I’ve been trying to figure that out but I’m just not getting it yet. I wish there was a video walkthrough about it showing the file used for the replay. -

Ok thanks for that. That answers a part of my question but still doesn’t answer how to save this information and then simulate this using cx- simulator. -
Is there a way to capture a snapshot of ALL inputs in cx-programmer to then be saved and used on a simulation to recreate a real life scenario?
