Upload & Comparison¶
Depending on the job configuration, the following files are backed up during job execution:

Info
-
Not all of these files are available/retrievable on some of the supported devices. Non-retrievable files can only be backed up manually due to the machine configuration.
-
If a PMC program has been changed on the controller without a backup being stored in the FROM, a warning will be displayed when uploading.
-
During comparison, the path stored in the LAD/PMC files (PMCx, x=1,2,3,4,5,S) is used instead of the file name for assignment.
-
Only the LAD files are compared when comparing versions.
