You can "export" a project created for one PLC brand to a different PLC brand by
loading the project file into EasyBuilder, then entering a different PLC type in this box.
EasyBuilder will go through your entire project and attempt to change each reference
to PLC data registers to a logical selection for the new PLC protocol; however, we
strongly recommend that you review these changes to assure that they are satisfactory.
