3.6.2 Available SINUMERIK archive types
There are different types of archives which you can create in different ways. Essentially, you
cannot
use the TIA Portal to create archives that contain NC, drive or HMI data. However, you
can save a finely granular selection of translated program blocks as an archive in the TIA Portal
with the "PLC reload archive".
