KB-127549: Checksum compare only

Checksum compare only

This upload variant is used to compare specific checksums of blocks. Changes to the block code are detected and the block is displayed as changed. A detailed view of the change is not possible.

No backup is produced with this variant. This means that you cannot carry out a detailed comparison or restore. Current values cannot be saved or compared.

All controllers from the project are compared.

Note

From TIA Portal V15.1 onwards, uploads and comparisons for password protected projects will also be possible.
