Posted 28 Aug 2017 Hi! I'm trying to download program to an e1001 but get errormessage "Unable to connect to Panel". After erasing the applikationprogram in the panel everything works fine. I can connect and download the program. Anyone knows why I couldn't connect or if I could have done differently? Is there some kind of program lock?

Posted 28 Aug 2017 How are you downloading (via Ethernet or other communication)? Can you post a screenshot of the peripheral settings (all the ports)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 28 Aug 2017 Hi! I'm connecting via Ethernet and after an application reset everything works so all my settings should be correct or? Can the panel lock if you are using another PC or maybe not the exact same version of E-Designer? BR Asp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 28 Aug 2017 If I understand you correctly, you can reset the HMI and then download your project. However, after the first download you are unable to download to the panel again. You have to reset the HMI all over again to be able to download your project. Is that correct? Can you post a screenshot of the peripheral settings (all the ports)? My guess is that some settings are modified from the original, and therefore you cannot connect to the panel after the first download. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 28 Aug 2017 Hi! After first download it is possible to change the program and download again. No problem. Settings: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 29 Aug 2017 It's been ages since I used E-Designer, but have you tried removing Transparent Mode from the Ethernet connection just as a test? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 29 Aug 2017 Hi again! No, I have not. But it all works after reset and first download so..... I don't have possibility to test it now because the process is running. Couldn't it be something in the panel that locks me out? Anyway, I got it working so I think we have to leave this thread unsolved. Thanks for your time and effort!! Have a nice week!

Posted 30 Aug 2017 It could be that there was an issue with Transparent Mode function. Were you online with PLC software of any kind via the HMI (like programming software, SCADA, other HMIs or similar) when you tried to download the HMI project? There are some things that could cause issues when using Transparent Mode since Transparent Mode "occupies" the connection. This could be a "lock-out" as you suggest. Glad you got it working.
