Conversion of old XTS system
Please note that while using the compatibility mode, the new functions of the XTS Track Management as well as the Leave and Arrive functionality or some new functions for simulation and visualization are not available. To extend your XTS system and use the new functions, you must convert your current configuration of XTS objects into a new project. |
When converting an old XTS system up to software version 3.18.715.0, the following areas must be adjusted and carefully controlled, as only small changes in these areas produce large effects in the entire project:
- XTS TcCOM objects
- NC axes and SoftDrives
- XTS Utility Library
Example configuration The conversion of an old system and the associated project is described using a closed system with 180° curves and four movers as an example. |
To be safe, make a copy of your project before starting the conversion. It cannot be guaranteed that the following steps can be applied one hundred percent to every project. If you have difficulties with the conversion, contact the product specialist responsible for your region. |
