Code transparency CODESYS vs BCS Tools
The written IEC code for a specific device can easily be used by another device and even in another
Engineering Tool (CODESYS based). One important thing though is that if device specific functions
has been used where special support from the firmware of the device is needed this will not be available
for the other device. In order to move IEC code CODESYS -> BCS Tools or vice versa the best
procedure is simply to start an instance of each engineering tool and copy and paste between the two
opened projects.
In order to change into another device using the same Engineering tool simply perform an “update
device” and select the new target.
