Corrected from:
PLC Designer V3.18
Response of the new version:
When moving or adding new I/O modules, the settings selected on the 'CANopen Module I/O Mapping' tab are not deleted.
What happens?
The settings selected on the 'CANopen Module I/O Mapping' tab are deleted.
When does this behaviour occur?
When adding new I/O modules to an EPM-S110 CANopen bus coupler or moving I/O modules in the device tree of the PLC Designer project, the settings on the 'CANopen Module I/O Mapping' tab of I/O modules already connected to this bus coupler may be deleted.
Which products are affected?
PLC Designer from V3.12
EPM-S110 (CANopen bus coupler)
Short-term measures:
Before inserting new I/O modules, use the Export I/O Mapping to CSV context menu command of the I/O disc and export the I/O mapping. Then insert the new modules and import the I/O mapping using the Import I/O Mapping from CSV context menu command of the I/O modules. Manually restore the settings in the 'Standard value' column.
Evaluation/recommendations:
When inserting or shifting I/O modules on the CANopen bus coupler in a PLC Designer project, settings (e.g. the mapping) of modules that have already been inserted may be deleted. As a result, the I/O 1000 system can no longer be accessed from the PLC program via CAN.
