B&R CP 260 3CP260.60-1 2005 Backup and restore

@Renaissance ,
There are two ways we can go about this.

  1. If you have the original project that is used on the 3CP260.60-1, then you should be able to open Automation Studio x.x and proceed with transferring the project onto the backup 3CP260.60-1. In case you are not sure what version of Automation Studio you need, I’ recently did a post that may be able to help determine this.

Once determined, you can go to the B&R website, Downloads | B&R Industrial Automation, and download the desired version. If you find that the Automation Studio version is not available on the B&R website, then go ahead and contact your B&R local support and they can assist with providing you with the required Automation Studio version. If you have any questions on the transfer process feel free to follow up, or check out the help explorer, that’s installed alongside Automation Studio 4.x and older.

  1. Most of B&Rs 2003/2005 hardware were programed using SG3 (currently on SG4). In this case, B&R does offering engineering services where they can perform the backup/restore procedure from one SG3 system to another. If this sounds like something you would prefer, contact your local B&R service/support about the inquiry and they can assist with next steps.
