Migrating from TOP Server V4 DNP Suite to TOP Server V5/V6 DNP Suite

I have an existing installation of the legacy TOP Server V4 DNP Suite with an existing working .opf configuration. I would like to upgrade to TOP Server V5 / V6. How do I move my working configuration forward to a newer version?

Migrating your working TOP Server V4 .opf project configuration using the DNP Suite only requires that you open your existing .opf configuration file in a newer TOP Server version. All existing channels, devices, settings and tags will be migrated to the new version for you automatically. No changes are required.

That being said, some of the settings you may be familiar with in V4 of the DNP Suite have moved in newer versions. Below is a listing of settings that have changed locations and where they can be found now:

 Setting (Ethernet & Serial Drivers)

 V4 Location

 V5/V6 Location

DNP Master Node Address Channel ⇒ DNP Master Setup Device ⇒ Communications
DNP Slave ID/Address Device ⇒ General Device ⇒ Communications
Integrity Poll Interval Device ⇒ DNP Slave Configuration Device ⇒ Class Polling (Polling in V6)
Time Sync Style Device ⇒ DNP Advanced Settings Device ⇒ Communications
Unsolicited Mode Classes Device ⇒ DNP Slave Configuration Device ⇒ Unsolicited
Event Class Poll Intervals Device ⇒ DNP Slave Configuration Device ⇒ Class Polling (Polling in V6)
