5-2 ProcessLogix Client Installation and Upgrade Procedures
ATTENTION
!
Client conversion is not dependent on the Server
conversion. This allows a customer with multiple clients to
pre-upgrade clients before upgrading the ProcessLogix
Server.
Since the procedures here do not affect the running of the
Server software, these procedures can be performed with
the system on-process. Caution should be taken not to
affect the Server in this scenario.
If you are pre-converting clients before the Server is
converted to R500.1, these converted clients will NOT be
functional with the R320.0 or R400.0 System. R500.1 Client
software is NOT backwards compatible.
ATTENTION
!
This procedure does NOT cover the existence of any prior
version of ProcessLogix Server Software on the Client PC.
Systems which previously had a version of R320.0 or
R400.0 Server on them will have to follow the directions
for a clean install to convert the system to be a R500.1
Client.
