Hello I have made, as an unofficial sideproject, a tool that does automatic conversion of AS4 to AS6 projects: AS4_to_AS6_ConversionTool It is not perfect yet, and probably never will be, but in my own opinion, it does give one quite a good headstart in converting an AS4 project to AS6. Document…

Hi there, I haven’t looked into it in detail but from the Readme alone it looks like it’s basically the same as the as6-migration-tools ? If so, I suggest putting effort into that instead of another tool :slight_smile:

Michael W - Then you have not looked closely :slight_smile: This tool does the actual conversion of the project. Completely (as much as currently possible). As far as I know, the migration script does little more than an analysis, and replace the string and math libraries, and some OPC UA updates…

I simply went with GitHub - BRDK-Internal/AS4_to_AS6_ConversionTool: AS4 to AS6 conversion tool. Replacement AS6 library pack can be downloaded here: https://abb-my.sharepoint.com/:u:/p/mads-ravn_pedersen_dk/IQD6GnOHao4pQYgsskb2J0ozAZQ3WCFLRfN-QG6DeJNaiME?e=Q6BnRd which looks identical to what the o…

I agree that we should try and focus on only one path. But just to give you (and others) an idea of what we have built, here is a demonstration video: conversionDemo2.mp4 This is a real customer project, although not one that is very complex. I convert it fully to AS6 in the less than 6 minutes…

Hi @mads.andersen , I will try to connect developers of these two tools together and let’s discuss the possibilities we have. For others, stay tuned! :slight_smile:

Thanks @pedersenm for your effort, I have to convert a prj made with AS 4.11 + mapp legacy + ACP10…I’ll update you about the result. ———– First I need to replace the obsolete hw, nothing new, I like the blocking red message. [image] Ciao Valerio

I don´t think it can convert mapp legacy components, but give it a try and see how it gets you :slight_smile:

Thanks @pedersenm I cannot access to AS6 Library Pack (SharePoint) how to solve that? thanks again Marco Sartori

Oh yes, I am sorry about that. Guess there is not public access to my company OneDrive. Alternative download path for the AS6 Library Pack here: Access via Synology Click here to open the link I will try and come up with a better permanent solution, but t…

Hi @pedersenm , How do you handle the conversion between mapp Alarm and mapp AlarmX in your tool? As you know mapp Alarm is not supported in AS6 so I think I should convert that to mapp AlarmX in AS 4 first. Am I wrong? I asked few months ago if your tool handles mapp Legacy, but actually the con…
