Hi Golla, The BackupLocal API in ME Application Manager isn't intended for public use. In this case, the best option would be the workaround you mentioned-upgrading to a newer version-if it works for your use case. ------------------------------ Bruce Teng ------------------------------

Hi Golla, To my best knowledge, FactoryTalk View SE does not expose the IAppMgrServer::BackupLocal(appName, archivePath, password, typeName) COM API for public or supported use.

Hi tke97, RSLogix 5000 v13.00 is a very old, retired release. In general, there is no direct version dependency between FactoryTalk View ME and RSLogix/Studio 5000 for runtime communication. That said, there are a few practical considerations to be aware of: Operating system support: FTView ...
