SIMOTION device. The module is replaced.
5. Accept the changes made to the hardware configuration with "Station" > "Save and

6. Close HW Config.
Note
From SIMOTION SCOUT V4.2, when modules are replaced the following actions are
performed automatically by the engineering system, as necessary:
• Update of the technology packages (TPs)
• Automatic upgrade of the SINAMICS Integrated
The updated data is transferred to the project and the entire project saved.
If the module hardware changes (e.g. the D410 DP is replaced with the D410 PN), proceed
as described in the section titled Removing and replacing the SIMOTION D410 (Page 166).
5.3.8 Upgrading technology packages
Overview
The SIMOTION technology packages (e.g. TP CAM, TP PATH, DCBlib) are available in
various versions.
