How to import a partial application
 In the Partial applications selection window, click on Load partial application.
Or:
 Right click on the CPU module and select the Import configuration... command
from the context menu. The following dialog opens.
 Click on the button on the right of the Import file field. A file selection dialog opens.
 Select any fsi file and click OPEN to display the contained partial application and
description in the panel.
 Click OK to import the selected partial application. The hardware in the import file
will be added to your projects hardware configuration while the imported logic will
be inserted as one or several new separate pages in the Logic editor.
Example: A project contains a WS0-CPU1 and an WS0-XTIO module, a C4000, an
emergency stop button, a robot and one page with the necessary logic in the logic
editor. The partial application to be imported contains another WS0-XTIO module
with a two hand control and a motor plus one logic editor page with the logic for
controlling these devices. After the import has been completed, the project will
contain both WS0-XTIO modules with the respective devices connected and both
logic programs on two separate pages.
How to exchange a CPU module in a project:
Using the export and import function, it is possible to exchange a CPU module (e.g.
WS0-CPU0 to WS0-CPU1 or another firmware version (from Ver.1 to Ver.1.xx or
later)) in an existing project without having to re-configure the project (hardware
configuration, logic).
 Load the project with the CPU module you want to exchange.
 Export the partial application as described above.
 In the Project menu, select the command New, Standalone station project.
 In the Hardware configuration view, add the desired new CPU module to the new
project.
 Right click on the new CPU module and reimport the partial application.
