Jon Bertucci / Product Management – Evolution Products
Distribution List / World
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the release for the immediate sale of the Evolution Console Converter for
Symphony/Harmony. This product represents the continuing development of evolution products for
Symphony/Harmony to the Industrial IT platform. All information regarding this release is provided on the
Solutions Bank (Solutionsbank/Control Products and Systems/Industrial IT – Operate IT/Operate IT B).
This tool is for sale only to internal ABB organizations. It is meant for internal use only, and must
not be sold directly to an external customer (end user). The Evolution Console Converter for
Symphony/Harmony is intended to be used as part of a conversion service offering to existing customers
as they move to Operate IT Process Portal B. It is licensed by the ATCF organization (BU Controls) and
should be purchased by the ABB sales, service and support organizations for their use as part of a
console evolution service. Before selling these conversion services, be sure to enlist the appropriate
organization to implement the actual conversion process and associated services.

The new conversion tool provides an efficient means to gracefully migrate INFI 90/Harmony console
graphics to Operate IT B graphics. This tool supports all installed consoles based on SODG graphics
including MCS, MCS Plus, OIS20-25, LAN 90 PCV, and OIS 40,41,42,43,44. There is no need to create
your entire Process Portal B graphics from scratch when you can simply use this time saving tool.
Graphics can typically be converted and ready to use in 20% of the time it would take to build them from
scratch.
