Hal9000 Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Dear Forum, I have a very large V120-22-R6C project that I would like to migrate over to a V350-35-R6. I have saved the V120 to the latest Visilogic release 8.6.3 My question is, what is the best and most efficient way to copy over my PLC ladder code?I understand I will loose my HMI displays. I have tried to simply do a hardware conversion but the Visilogic software will only open up as new V350 project. Kind regards, Justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MVP 2022 Joe Tauser Posted November 9, 2010 MVP 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Under the Project Menu there is an option to "Convert to color". Read the information box that comes up and make a note of any of the conversion issues that will apply to you. Then click OK. All of your ladder files should go without a problem. You're going to have the most fun fixing all the graphic displays; the V120 is 1/4 the resolution of the V350 and everything will appear in the corner of the V350 screen. Joe T.

Cara Bereck Levy Posted November 10, 2010 Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 Take a look at the Help topic V120 and V130, which deal wih conversion issues. I owe Joe on that one--he provided a lot of the information in that topic:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hal9000 Posted November 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 Thanks for your quick replies. The "Convert to color" facility didn't work when converting V120 to V350, it stopped on "hardware elements" for some reason - no error messages came up from Visilogic (8.3.0) either. I converted V120 to V570 insead and that worked fine, then I changed my hardware back to V350 Now I can re-build my displays and make them look even better!! Thanks again!
