AS 488 K migration package

■Ordering Data

The migration of existing automation systems using AS 488 K migration packages is a complex process comprising a quota- tion and ordering phase with detailed clarification based on a checklist, the data conversion phase, delivery and commission- ing on site, and the return of licensed components. The planning and coordination of such a migration requires intensive contact as well as exact arrangements and agreements between all in- volved parties.

The following information is basically required for ordering AS 488 K migration packages by DP system or fax:

•Order No. and quantity of migration packages including de- tailed information on the power supply (DC 24 V direct or AC 230 V/ DC 24 V integral) and on the CPU (CPU 486-3 with 75 MHz or CPU 488-3 with 120 MHz)

•Type of AS 230 K or AS 235 K automation system to be migrat- ed in each case

 

Order No.
