Posted 24 Jan 2014 Hello, I need some help with a older machine a Driam coater DRC 1600/1.25, Step 5 Siemens PLC. The program was lost due to a dead battery (I know) and the program loaded from EPROM does not work. Siemens technician has looked at the machine and the manufacturer OEM sent some 5 1/4 floppy's that can not be read. A data block seams to have configuration info DB14 is missing. Anyone out there has a program for this machine? Anyone has a Siemens Programmer PG675 to read the floppy's? Thanks for any help Eugen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 24 Jan 2014 If the disks originate from a PG675 then they will be cpm format, not DOS. If you cannot find a PG675/685 you would need a later version of S5 that runs on a PC and someone who can convert the old cpm disks into the newer format. The PG675 had two floppy drives and no hard disk, the PG685 was a later version that had a hard drive and 1 floppy drive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
