GX Works3 project merge

3 posts in this topic

Hi

Not sure if someone has tried this. I have 2 GX Works3 projects. I am trying to merge them into 1. Is this possible?

You can copy ladder logic program files, ST, FBs etc. and their local labels by right clicking on them in the navigation tree. Then just paste them into the other project's tree and set them to be scanned. 

It probably won't be that simple though. This is assuming that the different program units operate independently though and don't clash on outputs etc.

Not sure in GS Works 3, but in IEC Developer, I would open the two software versions in two separate IEC Developer windows and then you can just copy and paste POUs or individual rungs from one to the other.

You would have to pay particular attention to the addressing and naming of the Global Variables to ensure that addresses did not overlap each other, and so that the newly copied sections would compile properly.
