iX Talk

eDesigner has the option of selecting items to download and this allowed one to avoid overwriting the customer's recipe changes.

iX Developer doesn't have this option. How are developers managing this? FTP the recipes back from the panel before project transfer? (Not great, if someone forgets this step.) Anyone got a procedure?

Many thanks.

Recipe handling is better in iX Devleoper 2.20. The best way is

1. Export recipes to usb memory stick.
2. Download the new applicaton to the panel.
3. Import back the recipes from the usb memory stick.

Have you thought about saving your recipes to your own files instead? We have spun our own recipes that even include images. We feel it is a much more flexible approach. you can mange them remotely via ftp without intervention form the HMI.
