1 Introduction

1.1 Scope of the document

Support Users to convert a project made for CP600 to project for CP600 2nd.

The document describes the general differences between the CP600 and CP600 2nd genera-
tion and gives some hints to execute all necessary steps for conversion.

1.2 Compatibility
The application example explained in this document have been used with the below engineer-
ing system versions. They should also work with other versions, nevertheless some small ad-
aptations may be necessary, for future versions.

• CP600 / CP600 2nd generation

• Panel Builder V2.8.1.477 or newer

2.5 Replacement Options

If you want to transfer a PB610 project form a today´s CP635, CP651 or CP676, which have direct successors in CP600 2nd generation (CP6407, CP6410,
CP6415), you will face no difference in screen size and resolution, means, your current application will fit for the successor screen without any borders or other
mismatches. If you want to replace a today´s CP620, CP630, CP661, CP665, which don´t have direct successors in CP600 2nd generation, screen sizes and
resolutions might be different. In that even after optimal adaption of the PB610 application some borders will remain on the new target control panel.

3 Convert Application

3.1 Update Project or new Project

Update Project can be done by “Project Properties” in the section “Project -> Project Type”
(see chapter Convert Project with Panel Builder)

• Target HMI will be changed

• Standard application will be transferred

3.2 Convert Project with Panel Builder with same screen

size
• Create backup of your current Panel Builder project

• Open existing project with Panel Builder in version V2.8.1.447 or newer

• You will be asked if you want to update the project

• Confirm with “Convert”

3ADR010541, 2, en_US 6
 CP60 0 CONV ERT I NG A CP60 0 PROJ ECT T O A CP6 00 2ND G ENER AT IO N PROJ ECT

• Double Click “Project Properties”

• Expand the Project entry and select Project Type

• Push Button right to “+” Button

• Select the matching target, the table is shown in chapter 2.5 Replacement Options

• Confirm with Finish

• A hint will be shown, that the target will be changed

3ADR010541, 2, en_US 7
 CP60 0 CONV ERT I NG A CP60 0 PROJ ECT TO A CP6 00 2ND G ENER AT IO N PROJ ECT

• Confirm with Yes

If IRC5 driver is used, it has to be replaced by IRC5 Linux driver with relevant
configuration parameters.

CAUTION!

3.3 Convert Project with Panel Builder with different

screen size
• Create backup of your current Panel Builder project

• Open existing project with Panel Builder in version V2.8.1.447 or newer

• You will be asked if you want to update the project

• Confirm with “Convert”

• Double Click “Project Properties”

• Expand the Project entry and select Project Type

• Push Button right to “+” Button

• Select the matching target, the table is shown in chapter 2.5 Replacement Options

• Confirm with Finish

• A hint will be shown, that the resolution of the new target is different. Quadruple res-
olution of the application, adapted from CP630 800x480 pixels instead of former
320x240 pixels

• Select all three checkboxes (Keep page size, Keep Keyboard templates and Keep Us-
ermanagement templates) and confirm with Yes

3ADR010541, 2, en_US 10
 CP60 0 CONV ERT I NG A CP60 0 P ROJ ECT TO A CP6 00 2ND G ENER AT IO N PROJ ECT

• Some additional parameters must be adapted. Please enable the Show Advances
properties button in the upper left corner

• Set the parameters as seen in the screenshot below

o Current target device (here: project type) „CP630“ has to be replaced by

„CP6407“

o Checking the box Keep page size, Keep Keyboard templates and Keep Us-
ermanagement templates will make sure, that current application can just be
zoomed correctly

o PageWidth and PageHeight represent the resolution of the target device and
are updated automatically with the selection of CP6407

o Target zoom factor: It shall be defined in that way, that at least one - either
the horizontal or the vertical - resolution meets the equivalent resolution of
the new target device.
In this example – target zoom factor: 2 ➔ 2x (320x240) ➔ 640x480 (see table
in chapter 2.5)

▪ the zoomed vertical resolution complies with the vertical resolution

of the new CP6407

▪ The zoomed horizontal resolution of 640 is by 160 less than 800 of

the new CP6407 ➔ Since the application is displayed with central
alignment there will be two stripes (width of 80 pixels each) of back-
ground left and right on the CP6407

o Background color: This option defines the color of the borders, which will be
visible on the panels screen left and right from the presentation of the appli-

cation. In this example blue color was selected for better visibility of the bor-
ders. In real applications black background color [0, 0, 0] might be the best
solution.

• A further parameter must be adapted. Please switch to your first page in the project.
There we have to adapt one parameter.

• Set the parameter as seen in the screenshot below for each page

o Please set the parameter Static Optimization to false. This will enable ren-
dering during runtime.

If IRC5 driver is used, it has to be replaced by IRC5 Linux driver with relevant
configuration parameters.
