Issue:
Transfer programming from one drive to another using SoMove.
Product Line:
Altivar Variable Frequency Drives
Environment:
All models compatible with SoMove.
Cause:
None
Resolution:
It is possible to transfer a configuration from one drive to another drive of the same model, but different firmware versions. However, there may be problems if going from a newer firmware level to an older firmware level if the new has additional parameters or if the new firmware includes a physical hardware update like a new micro processor.
