A975 GOT conversion to a 1000GOT

[JDHammond 0]

We are running five A975 GOT's on our line and one 1000 GOT. We had one 975 fail but we had a spare. Can you convert the 975 program into a 1000? Does GT Converter convert the 975 program to the 1000 or do I have to rewrite the whole program in a 1000? Thanks

Don't even need GT Converter. Just open the project in GTD2 and change the GOT type. It will take care of it all. GT Converter2 is for the 800GOT terminals.

I read over the Technical Bulletin and it gave me the recommended replacement for the screen. I also have a CCLink Data Unit for the 975 and I will have to purchase the recommended communication module. Will that be simply changing the wires over to the new module mounted on back of the GOT or is it more involved? Thanks for the information! Edited 22 Feb 2010 by JDHammond

The most major difference will be you can configure all the comm settings in the project and send them to the GOT, instead of having to configure them via the GOT once its powered up. Should be fairly straightforward.

Ok, as soon as I get my Com module in I will give it a try! Thanks!
