mareB Posts: 2 Rating: (0)	Hello I would like to add more functionality to existing FBD program, by first converting it to SCL and than adding this new functions and use SCL afterwards. Is it possible to convert FBD program to SCL and if, how ? MarkoB

For basic programming , it is not very difficult and somehow more convenient.I also recommend you visiting the following clustered threads for a quick start: HD_SCL Starting Point Best regards Hamid Hosseini

I have been working in FDB in the past now I am working in SCL. I have previous projects which I would like to upgrade in SCL. What are you saying is that there is no shortcut but I have to rewrite the whole program in SCL. Is that correct ? Regards MarkoB

The negative answer is always unpleasentbut we should consider technical issues on our decisions. mareB I have been working in FDB in the past now I am working in SCL. I have previous projects which I would like to upgrade in SCL. What are you saying is that there is no shortcut but I have to rewrite the whole program in SCL. Is that correct ? SCL is a high level language and implementing an existing FBD project in SCL is time consuming .It would be a trade off between necessity and time you can spend. Also check this previously discussed similar issue here: LAD to SCL smiffy Unfortunately there is no easy way to do this. SCL is a much higher level language than LAD, so the system will not do it for you. The only way is to do in manually, which will be quite difficult and time consuming. In STL it would be no issue, as you can view code written in any language as STL. Best regards, Hamid Hosseini
