Get the following things available for the replacement to GP3000 series.

*1In the case of n:1 connection, connect the online adapter to the terminal GP only.
*2With the conventional cable above, if the Profibus connecter is used on the GP side and the resistance switch is ON, the online adapter is not required.

*When using the terminal conversion adapter (GP070-CN10-O) with GP2000/77R/70 series

Important notes for the replacement from GP2000/77R/70 series to GP3000 series *Be sure to read here.
When replacing hardware from GP2000/77R/70 series to GP3000 series, there are important notes like this,
Important notes for the case of using the MPI adapter (GP070-MPI-41) with GP2000/77R/70 series
The MPI adapter (GP070-MPI-41) cannot be used for GP3000 series.
When using the MPI adapter with GP2000/77R/70 series, the configuration differs and therefore it's necessary to create a new cable.
Important notes for connection environment
GP3000 series cannot be connected to the MPI network that mingles S7-200 and S7-300/400.
When connecting GP3000 series to S7-200, plural GPs cannot be connected.
When connecting plural GPs, it's possible only if connected to S7-300/400 using COM2.
When using S7-200, GP3000 series and the ladder software cannot be used at the same time.
Important notes for converting the project
For GP-Pro EX, when using the device addresses from DB1W00000 to DB60W65532 with GP-PRO/PB3, if the project of GP-PRO/PB3 is converted into the one of GP-Pro EX, the devices, DB1W00000 to DB60W65532 will be automatically converted into DB1.DBW00000~DB60.DBW65532.
Though the notation on the drawing software differs, DB1W00000 to DB60W65532 and DB1.DBW00000 to DB60.DBW65532 are the same devices.

GP-Pro EX does not support PLC's Time Master Function.
