AC500 V3 library handling with CODESYS V3 is different from the library handling with AC500 V2. In AC500 V3 a coexistence of library versions in the library manager is possible and users can change a version within the project. How to install a new library and how to choose a library version in the project is described in an ⮫ application note.
System libraries
When upgrading Automation Builder or an existing project, new AC500 V2 system libraries are installed automatically. Older library versions will be removed as coexistence of a new library version and an older library version is not possible. Check the available library version in the Library Manager.
Usually, when upgrading Automation Builder or an existing project, new system libraries are installed automatically and older library versions are removed.
As an exception, for the CANopen device CM598-CN both library versions are available in the Library Manager due to compatibility reasons. However, coexistence of a new library version and an older library version is not possible. In order to avoid compile errors remove the older library version.
Part of the system libraries are the group of CMP libraries, i.e. the App library, IEC task library and the log library. How to use CMP libraries is described in an ⮫ application example.
Customer libraries
Target change from AC500 V2 to AC500 V3
After a target change from AC500 V2 to AC500 V3 the customer libraries have to be converted manually using the Library Converter ⮫ “Later change-over of a target system”.
Some Standard CODESYS libraries are automatically converted during the target change.
