Convert WinCC RT Pro to WinCC Unified V18

I have WinCC RT Pro project I want to move to WinCC Unified. These are in TIA v18. Is it possible to do this,and how?

Thanks.

Hi Initech68,

no, there is no way to do that.

Perphaps you can export Tags or Alarms, rearrange the columns in excel and import them again. But I don't know how or if this really helps and saves efforts.

Tip: Make it new - or remain at WinCC RT Pro. You have to be careful: WinCC Unified has of course some advantages, but not everything is possible by now, what is possible in WinCC Prof.

There's a add-in called Data2Unified which is supposed to help you migrate projects to Unified. Didn't work for me the way I expected but at least it copies all the tags and alarms. If you have any faceplates it will just create empty screens. Didn't expect it to recreate the functionality but it didn't even copy the visual part..

Here's the link, give it a try, may be it does the trick for you:

Data2Unified doesn't support Runtime Professional! This is because Prof. doesn't support the openness API.
