Preparation
Before the device replacement can be performed, it is recommended that preliminary work
be performed in the existing project. The existing project must be adapted so that it can be
mapped to the new device during the device replacement.
Examples:
1. Number of DRIVE-CLiQ interfaces
2. Number of CX32-2s
3. PROFINET interface
TIP for synchronous grouping
If you use device-dependent ST libraries, then the upgrade can be accelerated through the
following procedure:
1. Upgrade the device version for all devices that participate in the synchronous grouping in
2. Save the project and close it in SIMOTION SCOUT.
3. Perform the module replacement for all devices of the synchronous grouping in
4. Open the project in SIMOTION SCOUT.

7.3 Adapting a project (Upgrading the project / Replacing the SIMOTION controller)
If the replacement is to a device with fewer DRIVE-CLiQ interfaces, then the ports that
are no longer available must be rewired before the device replacement (double-click
"Topology" in the project navigator). Components on DRIVE-CLiQ ports that are no
longer available are moved to the component archive during the device replacement.
Example:
Replacement of D445-2 DP/PN (six DRIVE-CLiQ ports) with D425-2 DP/PN
(four DRIVE-CLiQ ports)
→ ports X104 and X105 are no longer available.
If the replacement is with a D4x5-2 that only supports a small number of CX32-2
modules, then a device replacement in HW Config is not possible.
In this case, the CX32-2 must be replaced by a SINAMICS S120 CU320-2.
If a D4x5 with CBE30 is replaced by a D4x5-2 DP/PN with onboard PROFINET interface,
then the number of PROFINET ports is reduced from four to three.
Components on port 4 have to be rewired
the ST libraries
(example: Change D445 V4.1 to D445-2 V4.2).
See also Section Upgrading a library (Page 330).
HW Config for this project and then save.
The entire synchronous grouping is now completely upgraded.
