8.3 Replacing older modules: spares / upgrading
Distinction
When replacing existing modules with the module described here, the following
variants must be distinguished:
S Use as a replacement:
The situation described here is when an existing module can be replaced by a
new module by removing and inserting it with no change to the configuration.
S Upgrading (functionally compatible module replacement)
The situation in this case is when the module described here can be used
instead of an older module as long as adaptations are made in the
configuration. The CP used previously is replaced by the new CP in the
configuration.
Unless stated otherwise, the range of functions of the older module continues to be
supported in both cases.
You can also upgrade modules listed under “use as a replacement”. This becomes
necessary when you want to use new features that were not available on the
previously used module.
