-First, open up the offline copy of the RSLogix5000 file (.ACD file). -In the top left hand corner, find where it says "Controller xxx", where xxx is the old controller name. -Right click and go to Properties -Click on Change Controller -Select the new controller type and revision -Save the file -Now you are ready to download the file to the controller The risk is that, these two controllers are different, and you may lose functionality when you switch from one to the other. Also you have to keep in mind what kind of IO you are using. If your old system has 1756 IO modules and your new system has 1769 IO modules, you have to change the PLC IO configuration as well, before you download the new program into the 1769 controller.
