6 Migrating Legacy PCB Projects
The PLX50 Configuration Utility provides a method to simplify the migration from a
ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) PROFIBUS application to a PLX51-PBM
application. The process involves first exporting the configuration from the PCB
software and then importing it into the PLX50 Configuration Utility.
Before importing a PCB application, ensure that all the necessary GSD files have first
been registered in the PLX50 Configuration Utility’s GSD Manager.
The PCB import requires a PLX51-PBM project with no existing slave devices
configured.
Open the ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) software and open the existing
PROFIBUS project.
