Version control of the libraries included in the delivery package of the Drive PLC V7.x target system

Which products are affected?
ESP-DDS2-x (Global Drive PLC Developer Studio V2.3)

Function description
In case of the Drive PLC V7.x target system the file name of the following libraries has been added by a version designation:
• LenzeTpDrv.lib
• LenzePLCToolBox.lib
• LenzeMemDrv.lib
• LenzeFpiDrv.lib
• LenzeDrive.lib
• LenzeCanDrv.lib
• LenzeCanDSxDrv.lib
• LenzeAifParMapDrv.lib
• Lenze8200Drive.lib
• Lenze32BitTransferDrv.lib

The following convention is valid for the file name:
LenzeLibNameXXYY.lib
• XX: External Release
• YY: External Level
e. g. LenzeFpiDrv0211.lib

In order to query the version number of the libraries used in the PLC program, too, every library is equipped with the following four global variable constants:
C_wLenzeLibNameVersionER: External Release
C_wLenzeLibNameVersionEL:  External Level
C_wLenzeLibNameVersionIR: Internal Release
C_wLenzeLibNameVersionBN . Build Number
e. g. the C_wLenzeFpiDrvVersionER variable constant has the value 02.

Applications
The PLC program for a series machine is created and tested with a specific version of the libraries. If libraries are revised in the course of a product development and improvement the behaviour of the series machine may change due to the use of the modified libraries. Thanks to the introduction of a version control for the libraries the initial library remains unchanged and can continued to be used in the PLC program of the series machine.
