Not able to download the SDM Dump file in the PLC 4PPC0573_20W

I have Developed a program in which i am using SDMSystemDump FB to Dump the SDM file,

i am able to do it when i connect it to Arsim through my Laptop and file gets stored in C:/SDM (given this path in File configuration)

but if i connect it to the hardware and then try to do it , the file doesn’t get stored in the PLC Internal storage.

I have tried ‘TSSL’, ‘C’ , ‘/’ as a path but its not downloading/moving to that folder

Can anyone help me with this issue ………..

Thank you in advance

Hi,

actual Automation Runtime versions allow only accessing the user partition F:
So you have to store your system dump file on a file device pointing to the user partition.

For example see here for further information:

As I was facing the issue while trying to dump an SDM file to the internal storage of a B&R PLC (4PPC0573_20W).

My program for generating CSV files was working fine, the files were getting stored successfully in the internal storage

under the path C:/Data_Log. (In File Configuration)

However, when I tried to dump the SDM file using the configuration path C:/SDM, it wasn’t getting stored in the PLC.

I also tried multiple path formats such as HD0, TSS, /, etc., but none of them worked for the SDM file.

Finally, the issue was resolved after setting the file path explicitly as C:\SDM (using the backslash \ instead of the forward slash /).

Once I used C:\SDM, the SDM files were successfully saved in the internal storage.
