Convert project
You must convert a project that was created in an older version of the program in order to
be able to use all the advanced functions of the new program version.
Each version of VisiWinNET
â
Smart contains a fixed range of functions that are available
in the projects created under the version.
By installing a new version of VisiWinNET, the project planner usually acquires a wider
range of features that open up new possibilities. However, existing projects can continue
to be opened and processed with the old range of functions.
)
Note!
ƒ
If you want to convert projects from an older version of the program into a
newer version, both versions of the program must have been installed.
ƒ
You can process a project created in an older version of the program in a
newer version of the program without having to convert the old project.
Then, however, the advanced program functions of the new version of the
program are not available to you.
ƒ
Conversion saves you the work of having to set up a project from the
beginning when you change over to a new version of the program. However,
it does not relieve you of the duty of thoroughly checking your application
after conversion. Lenze does not provide a 100% guarantee of compatibility
between the versions.
Conversion automatically involves the risk of a change in the behaviour of
your application!
1. Start the new version of VisiWinNET
â
Smart.
2. Open the project created in an older version of the program as described at the
beginning.
3. Select the File menu, click Convert project and follow the instructions.
A new project is created. The old project remains unchanged.

Exit program
Proceed as follows:
1. Go to File menu and click Exit.
If you have made changes to the project and have not yet saved them, a dialogue
appears listing all the changes. You can accept these changes (Ja) button) or reject them
( No) button).
VisiWinNET
â
Smart is then closed.
