Which products are affected?
GD Loader Version 1.x, 2.0
What happens?
The parameter set has been transferred successfully although the protocol file 'GDLoader.txt' contains the error messages ERROR B208h and ERROR B209h.
When does the problem occur?
If the PLC processing is not stopped or the controller is not inhibited before a parameter set transfer is executed, an ERROR will be logged in the protocol file (GDLoader.txt).
- B208h – Check controller inhibit
- B209h – Check program status of the target system (PLC not stopped)
Both messages are warnings and not errors. The occurrence of such messages will not lead to an abortion of the download.
The GD Loader inhibits the controller and the PLC is stopped before every parameter set transfer. In the GD Loader surface this is done via dialogs. In the 'Batch' mode it is done automatically.
Possible diagnostics?
None.
Short-term measures/recommendations?
In case of the messages B208h and B209h errors instead of warnings are indicated in the protocol files. When evaluating the protocol file it is to be checked whether a logged error has led to the abortion of the download.
Evaluation:
The GD Loader treats the messages B208h and B209h correctly as warnings. However, these warnings are logged as errors.
