Example: Using H-CPU V4.5 in PCS 7 V6.1 SPx 
The following updated AS hardware components can be used with PCS 7 V6.1 SP2 in 
addition to the AS hardware components listed in the document titled "PCS 7 - Released 
Modules" (extract from the PCS 7 V6.1 SP2 "Readme.txt" file):

The "Readme.txt" file contains concrete information about the additional release of H-CPU 
V4.5. The HSP and the required meta information will be supplied as software as of PCS 7 
V6.1 SP2.  
The following overview of the release schedule should clarify this point:

The order of the delivery releases shows that H-CPU V4.5 can only be used with its full 
range of functions starting with PCS 7 V6.1 SP2 or V7.0 SP1. The HSP of H-CPU V4.5 was 
officially released only for PCS 7 V7.0 SP1. The H-CPU must be operated as a replacement 
for PCS 7 V6.1 SP1. We recommend an upgrade to PCS 7 V6.1 SP2. 
New functions such as "firmware update in RUN" can only be used because you can now 
configure the H-CPU V4.5 in PCS 7. 
None of this is possible in PCS 7 V6.1 SP1 or V7.0. The H-CPU V4.5 is used as a 
replacement component here (see section (Page 40)). 
If an HUP/HSP is used in a PCS 7 project for redundant components, such as H-CPU or IM 
153-2, you will have to replace both redundant components during a maintenance interval.
