This version of the PLCViewerApp includes a runtime version check to alert the user when the online program has been modified. During configuration, the user enters the online version values of a controller. These values can be read from the object viewer or by opening the running PLCViewerApp and reading the Online Version error tooltip.
Also, version values can be copied to the clipboard by selecting the Online Version error and right-clicking to show a shortcut menu and selecting the Copy command.
The Rockwell runtime version change detection has some limitations:
-
Only online changes to the variable database are detected.
-
Setting the online version to “1.0” will not detect changes due to subsequent downloads.
