PLC and EtherCat Master no longer work after updating ...

Hi all,

when I installed my first test-app, I noticed that the app page told me that some modules have updates. So I installed them. Unfortunately now both the EtherCat Master as well as the PLC no longer seem to be running.

Any idea how to get my system running again?

I tried connecting from the ctrlX PLC Engineering, but that's just telling me the device is there, the runtime is not and doesn't offer me any information to how to resolve the issue.ย 

Help greatly appreciated.

Chris

Hello cdutz

With every release (1.12, 1.14, 1.20, ...) the system apps have to fit to the functional apps. That's (unfortunately) the current state. And in this problem you are running in.

You are completely right, that an user expects a better messages whats going on. That's the reason why with the next versions the functional apps will get an system app check. Means if you try to install a functional app what does not fit to the system a message will give you this information and this before you install it. But as I said at this issue we are working currently.

Regards

Jochen
