4.3 Device replacement
A device replacement is required if a defective hardware (x700 system) is to be replaced
with the follow-up system (x800).
 The Device replacement function serves to prepare the CF card of a replacement device
using »IPC Backup & Restore«, so that the configuration data of IPC 1 (like for instance
parameters, boot project, visualisation) can be transferred to the replacement device
(x800 system).
 This enables a subsequent device replacement from an x700 system to an x800 system.
o
[4-2] Basic representation of a device replacement: IPC 2 replaces IPC 1 within the machinery. CF card 2 has to be prepared using
the "Device replacement" function.

Basic procedure:
1. Import CF card 1 from IPC 1 (device to be replaced including the source data) in the »IPC
Backup & Restore« ( )
2. Have CF card 2 of the replacement device converted ( )
3. Insert CF card 2 in IPC 2. ( )
• Start IPC 2 (replacement device) with CF card 2.
The IPC will then restart (several times) until the migration and the data for the display are
adapted.

How to transfer the existing configuration data (source data) to the CF card of the
replacement device (x800):
1. Select Device replacement tab
