Configuration

General

Concept sections created using the LL984 programming language appear as well as non-IEC LL984 sections in Control Expert.

Restrictions for old LL984 configurations

The following points from LL984 configurations are no longer supported by Control Expert:

Not supported by Control Expert	Supported by Control Expert
Loadables	Necessary functionality of system loadables has been integrated into Control Expert. Control Expert does NOT provide equivalents for all other loadables.
ASCII messages	Will not be converted.
6x range (register in expanded memory)	Will not be converted.
Data protection configuration extension	Will not be supported.

Hot Standby (HSBY)

There are the following differences for converting the Concept Hot Standby to Control Expert:

Concept	Control Expert
The Hot Standby system in Concept is based on the 140 CHS 111 00 module.	This module is no longer supported by Control Expert.
The 140 CHS 111 00 module is purely a Hot Standby Module for a single slot. The power is supplied via the rack.	The CPU 671 60 module is a CPU module for two slots with a fixed assigned connection for data exchange. The Hot Standby system is integrated into the CPU 671 60 module.

The Concept converter replaces the CPU from Concept with the new Hot Standby CPU 671 60 and the Concept Hot Standby Module 140 CHS 111 00 is removed. All Hot Standby parameters will be transferred to the Control Expert application.

NOTE: It is not possible to recover an application from Concept to Control Expert safety PLC. To build a safety system, refer to the safety manual.

NOTE: As the CPU in Concept only requires one slot, but the new Control Expert CPU requires two, overlaps in the rack my arise. These must be resolved manually by the user.
