However the symbol names and LAD comments will not be present. Good Luck, billwest Hi I need to convert TI545 PLC to TIA portal V13, just wondering how to approach to it. Any suggestions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Split from Urgent: Convert .FSS file to S7 program.

Then migrate the project to TIA Portal. Your issues are: 1. The TI505 to S7 converter does not run on Windows 7 so you must find an xp machine. 2. The conversion/migration does a poor job of upgrading the 80's technology of the 505 to current technology 3. The converter converts 505 LAD to Step 7 STL which is incompatible with 505 users. My recommended option is to have TISOFT/Softshop/Workshop displayed on a screen and TIA Portal on another screen and start coding. Good luck, billwest
