● If you have SIPLACE Pro 13.1 or lower installed, you must uninstall it manually before
upgrading. This is required because of a change in the installation technology beginning with
SIPLACE Pro 14.0. Please refer to chapter 9.
The database will be kept untouched by that uninstallation and will be upgraded during the
installation of SIPLACE Pro.
NOTICE
Any upgrade from lower to higher versions is possible provided that an upgrade script is
available.
► In case of problems, please note any (error) messages that occur and check the
installation log files of the setup. To locate the installation log files in your temporary
folder, enter "%temp%" in the address field of Windows Explorer, sort the files in
there by creation date and have a look for files beginning with "SIPLACEPro" with the
extension ".log".
► For more details please contact your service technician.
● If the list of hidden hardware has been customized, these customizations will be kept during a
SIPLACE Pro version upgrade.
If the list of hidden hardware has never been customized before and a new, empty database is
generated, all discontinued hardware is set to be hidden during the installation. It is always
possible to un-hide these objects again.
3.2 Upgrading from SIPLACE Pro 4.x and Lower

– SIPLACE Pro 1.x including all Service Packs
– SIPLACE Pro 2.x including all Service Packs
– SIPLACE Pro 3.x including all Service Packs
– SIPLACE Pro 4.x including all Service Packs
For these versions, an upgrade with the existing SIPLACE Pro 13.0 installation has to be done
before the 14.x version is installed.

5 Software Components and Configuration
This chapter describes the software components of SIPLACE Pro and possible configurations.
5.1 Software Components
SIPLACE Pro consists of the following software components to be installed:
Server components:
– SIPLACE Pro Server
contains the server program.
– SIPLACE Pro Database
contains the SIPLACE Pro database.
Client components:
– SIPLACE Pro Line Control Server
to be used on computers dedicated to perform download of production data to the line.
– SIPLACE Pro Desk
contains the user interface of SIPLACE Pro.
– SIPLACE Pro Line Control GUI
contains the user interface of SIPLACE Line Control Server.
5.2 Configuration
The system installation can be installed on one computer or distributed across several computers.
If the SIPLACE Pro software is installed on separate computers, you work with one computer as
the dedicated server and one or more other computers as clients.
If the SIPLACE Pro software is installed on one computer, this computer functions as both server
and client.
In typical factory layouts, you can either have one central database containing all data for all lines
or a dedicated SIPLACE Pro Server for each line. A central database makes it possible to share
the same data for all lines, like component shape definitions. The dedicated SIPLACE Pro Servers
are independent from each other.
