Fix to Intouch Conversion

Does anyone have a utility that would convert Intellution to Wonderware?
 
I don't think there is really much available for this conversion. Intellution had a partner company that made utils. called GDB Make, and some others. This may let you export some Fix items, but most likely not the entire application.

The Fix database may export to .csv, then you can get it into the WW tagname.x file. Intellution's tag DB utils. are really limited.

Hello Pierre Boucher

You can find an utility that converts the Fix database to InTouch Tagname dictionary in the Wonderware Sample KBCD.

Much depends on the application. Fix allows a lot of logic to be performed by database blocks, whereas Wonderware does not. The database conversion utility (such as gdb2csv)will be of most help with converting database elements where no logic (other than simple alarming) is performed.

Scripting is different, as are the graphics, and trending, among other things. Most work likely then in migrating logic elements and graphics in the application.

Hope the Fix app is well-documented and the justification for migration is compelling enough.
