com2 -> com3 change, Fx2020 uses com2, newer controllers use com3
A. Take a backup
B. Do the work
C. Take a backup
-Download target's data from Fx2020 memory card:
data and www (and codeindex IEC or OpenPCS, if there is) and make a backup zip.
(-save the backup for example to a Fidelix backup server or send to support@fidelix.fi)
---------------------------------
If there was an older database than v9.20.07 in Fx2020, do this step:
-Take the backup zip apart to a computer and send the data+www information to Fx2025 to 09.20.07. (if you don't have a Fx2020 or Fx2025 controller, we can translate the database ourselves)
-----------------------------------
-Copy the data+www folders of v9.20.07 to the wanted device to a wanted version, e.g v11.50.41
-Change com2 definitions to com3 definitions in point database by following the next instructions:
- open windows command prompt (CMD)
- open a telnet connection to controller (TELNET 10.100.1.201)
- give the command importpoints savexml points
- PointDat.xml file, which keeps inside the point database in XML format, will appear to the controller's Data folder
- read PointDat.xml from controller to computer
- open the file with a text editor (like notepad.exe)
- replace all <IPort>2</IPort> text with <IPort>3</IPort>
- save the file and transfer it back to the data folder of the controller
- give a telnet command importpoints loadxml points
- Change the IEC-codes' hardcoded port2 definitions to port3 definitions if there has been done any !
- Check that everything is working OK.
- Now you can use the database also in Fx2025,Fx2025A,Fx2030,Fx2030A,Fx3000C controllers.
- Check that everything is working OK.
- Create a backup zip, save it for example to a Fidelix backup server or send to support@fidelix.com
