Comparing projects with the Version Cross Manager (VXM)

The Version Cross Manager detects differences between the various revision levels (versions)
of an engineering project. It can compare entire projects, hardware configurations, CFC/SFC
charts, block types and instances, signals, run sequences, etc., with one another and thus
detect any objects which are missing, which have been added, or which are different.
The import and export of project and planning data plus generation of process tags from CAx
function charts are available as additional functions.
Note
The VXM process image is not updated during selective downloading of charts. An update is
complete if all changed charts have been downloaded.
Usage scenarios and information on working with the Version Cross Manager can be found
in the "SIMATIC Process Control System PCS 7 Engineering System"
