Station Copier dependencies check

The Station Copier checks whenever installing a station, and the target JACE platform does not already have all modules installed that are required by that station. Changes are summarized as follows:

If any module needed by the station has a dependency that requires the JACE to be commissioned (upgrade core Niagara software or QNX OS), the station install immediately stops, upon station selection. (Steps in the wizard do not appear.) A dialog explains the JACE needs commissioning, and provides the option to start the Commissioning Wizard. See Figure 80.

Figure 80. Selected station cannot be installed without first commissioning the JACE.

Click Yes to start the Commissioning Wizard, or No to simply return to the Station Copier.

Two different examples of when this might occur:
- You have a platform connection to a JACE running AX-3.6. The station you are trying to copy (install) has been engineered with “apps”, using the app module introduced in AX-3.7. The app module has 3.7 dependencies on baja and other modules.
  
  In this case, providing you bought a 3.7 license for this JACE, you could click Yes to start the Commissioning Wizard, then upgrade the JACE—selecting to also install the same station.
- You are trying to install a station in a new, uncommissioned “out-of-the-box” JACE. Despite documentation to first commission any new JACE using the platform Commissioning Wizard, this continues to occasionally come up. For complete details, see the JACE NiagaraAX Install and Startup Guide.
If all modules needed by the station are found on your Workbench computer, the wizard starts normally. However, upon reaching the “Modules step”, in some cases you may see a caution. For further details see modules step.
