Program Transfer Mode between the Program Storage Device and
Industrial Programming Station
Program Transfer mode allows a program to be transferred between the program
storage device and the industrial programming station.
Program Transfer between the Program Storage Device and Industrial
Programming Station
The primary sequence allows for convenient, unconditional transfer of the program,
but does not guarantee OS revision control upon transfer to the target controller.
Transfer of an incompatible program to the controller will result in loss of the
resident user program, and may result in a failed download or a controller fault
when the controller is placed in Run mode.
The secondary sequence, designed for use with earlier programming packages
(also functional with RSLogix software, V5.20 or later), uses a stored controller
identity to guarantee OS revision control and will disallow program transfer
operations that could result in improper controller operation (due to unsupported
functions included in the user program).

Function
To PLC
Transfers a program from the industrial programming station to the program storage
device (DOWNLOAD).
From PLC
Transfers a program from the program storage device to the industrial programming
station (UPLOAD).
IMPORTANT
There are two unique operating sequences defined for program
upload/download between the industrial programming station and the program
storage device. The primary operational sequence used with RSLogix software,
V5.20 or later varies slightly from the secondary procedure (typically) used with
earlier RSLogix software versions, and with other programming software
packages.
