Posted 26 Dec 2005 Hi, I have a Telemecanique PLC with TSX-P87455 CPU . Which software should I use to program it? I want to take a backup from CPU and transfer it to another one. I heard that the software for it only can be run under OS/2 . Isn't any software under WINDOWS or DOS? thanks in advance for your help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 26 Dec 2005 You've heard right. You need a special software package that only ran under OS/2. No Windows programming, these things were obsolete before Windows existed. No DOS programming either. If you don't already have the software loaded on some really old laptop, I think you're out of luck. They certainly don't sell or support it anymore. Best bet might be to find an integrator who has worked with it before and can assist you. The programming port is also a 20mA current loop, so it's a big expensive cable. There was a handheld programming computer (TSXT407) that should be able to read the program, but then you're looking at writing it all down and retyping it.
