 ====== Uploading a RunTime configuration ======
+<WRAP group>
+<WRAP half column 81%>
+Each time you wish to upload RT configuration changes, make sure, that you downloaded the PLC config beforehand. We also recommend to double-check settings of your network card and make sure it is compatible with the required configuration (mainly if the DHCP client is enabled). After these checks, set the configuration.

 UDP broadcast can be used only in a local network, and as such utilizes MAC addresses. It allows you to detect PLCs without the need to manually enter their IP address - this is also helpful in situations where you disable DHCP by mistake, or you set a wrong IP address.

-**Note:** If you set up a new login and password, the old credentials are still used for the configuration upload. After a successful upload, you need to enter the new credentials again into ''PLC Connection Parameters''. From that moment a new password is saved and each project uploaded into the PLC must use the new credentials.

From that moment a new password is saved and each project uploaded into the PLC must use the new credentials.
 For uploading configurations or projects, the fast and reliable TCP is used. However, this method also requires you to know connection parameters, such as IP address. Through the TCP it is possible to communicate also via a proxy server.
 <WRAP center round important 80%>
-**Caution:** if you are unable to upload configuration, upload a new project etc. after a password change, the most likely cause is you uploaded a wrong password by error. If you can't remember the correct password, you can reflash the PLC's operating system as a last-resort solution. See the corresponding guides for [[en:hw:01-axon:image|Unipi Axon]] and [[en:sw:01-mervis:running-on-neuron-hidden|Unipi Neuron/Unipi 1.1]].
