Maintenance and service
6.3 Adapting a project (Upgrading the project / Replacing the SIMOTION controller)
for each SIMOTION device. Each version of SIMOTION SCOUT has a kernel (FW version)
for the SIMOTION CPU and an appropriate technology package.
TPs during upgrades
Device replacement (in HW Config), platform replacement (XML export/import), or even
upgrades may cause versions of SIMOTION technology packages (TPs), which are assigned
to individual technology objects (TOs), to change.
● The TP version may change when the main version is changed.
● If service packs and hotfixes are installed, there may even be a selection of TP product
During device replacement (in HW Config) the TP version is automatically updated. If the TP
version is changed and more than one version of the new TP version is available, the latest
version is automatically installed. If another version is preferred, this must be installed manually
(e.g. selection of V4.1.5.3).
During platform replacement (XML Export/Import) , however, the required technology package
including the TP version and, if necessary, the product version must be selected manually
after the import.
When a SIMOTION CPU is inserted, the TP CAM (latest TP version and product version) is
preset per default.
Special displays in the "version" field:
● "select" means that no TP version has yet been selected; this status occurs if older projects
● "---" means that no version can be determined (e.g. for the TP DCBlib or for older CPU

The TP version depends on the relevant main version in all cases; it may, however, remain
unchanged through a number of main versions.
versions available for the same TP version.
are upgraded for which the selection of a dedicated version is not yet supported. If the
project is loaded to the CPU without having previously made a selection, then the latest
available technology package is loaded automatically
versions < V4.1). If no version can be determined, you must select "---".
