I have few questions for S71500. Is there any way we can migrate s71500 program and blocks to Step version 5.5. I know vice versa is possible but how do we do reverse if needed. We can integrate s7300 or s7300 with PCS7 project, is similar thing possible with s71500 through PCS7 library. |

Hello, A fast answer No. And I can tell that Siemens will not make this tool in the future. Because normally we migrate an old system to newer system. I know that S7-300 is not an obsolete. But it's older than S7-300. Let me ask you a hypothetical question: Will Siemens made a migration tool to migrate S7 programs to S5? |

You aRe correct in your analogy. However, since s7300 and s7400 are active products and upgrades are available for both of these products at the same time. Moreover s7400 is not going away easily. Therefore if with a client there is a s7400 project with redundancy and now s71500 with Simplex application. There is a similaritiesin both jobs code and both codes are getting updated concurrently. So is there any utilities created by some 3rd parties vendors to make this conversion possible both ways? |

Again, I don't think so. Suppose i am using a third party migrator tool S5-S7... Imagine what will be missed. And what will be wrong migrated.... And imagine the impact. |
