12.3.10 Configuration for differing product versions

An example of a system configuration in which differing versions of JP1 products coexist is shown below.

Figure 12‒12: Example of configuration for differing product versions

Note the following points when monitoring operations in a JP1/IM system with differing product versions:

Versions 10, 9, 8, and 7 cannot coexist on the same machine.

For example, you cannot run JP1/Base version 8 and JP1/IM - Central Console version 7 on the same machine.
When products of different versions are linked, only the functions provided by the oldest of the versions can be used.

For example, if JP1/IM - View version 7 connects to JP1/IM - Manager version 8, the operations you can perform are limited to those supported in JP1/IM - View version 7.

For details about the restrictions that apply when different product versions coexist, see H. Connectivity with Previous Versions.
