Updating CET

If you have replaced an old COM600 with release 3.2, you need to update your project
that contains that Gateway object. This is done by a conversion wizard. The conversion
can be activated in two ways after you have installed the latest CET software:
Converting a project
1. Open the old project in the new CET. The conversion wizard is launched automat-
ically. Just follow the wizard instructions.
2. If the conversion wizard was cancelled, you can run the conversion by right-clicking
on the Gateway object and selecting Convert project. Follow the wizard instructions.
3. Check the Gateway object properties to see if the COM600 version is the latest

You can use the new CET software with old COM600 releases.
In this case, you should not upgrade the Gateway object. The
project conversion wizard is automatically started when the
old project is opened. Simply cancel the wizard.
