When importing I/O modules, the order of the modules changes
?What happens? After an import, the order of the EPM-Sxxx I/O modules does not correspond to the I/O module order in the project from which the modules were imported.
When does this behaviour occur?
When importing I/O modules using the PLC Designer command "Project>Import", the I/O modules are arranged in alphabetical order.
Which products are affected? PLC Designer V3.2 and higher
I/O system 1000 (EPM-Sxxx)
Short term measures:
Check if the I/O module order is correct after the import and correct the order, if necessary.
Use the PLC Designer command "Project>Export PLCopenXML" for exporting and the command "Project>Import PLCopenXML" for importing I/O modules.
Evaluation/recommendations:
When importing modules of the I/O system 1000, the modules are added to the project in alphabetical order. I.e. the original order used in the project from which the modules were exported gets lost. The order must be corrected manually. A remedy is described under "Short-term measures".
