  New Siemens PLC Baseline 6.4 with minor update to AOR/AIR change list from 6.3

• Schneider:
  New Schneider PLC Baseline 6.5 with minor change to baywatch and MFC - see: change list from 6.4

• Move output to single UnityGenerator folder (instead of 2 folders, UnityInstanceGenerator and UnityLogicGenerator)
• Split instance output file into 2 files:
• plc_instances_file_1st.xfm containing DI,AI,DPAR,WPAR,APAR,AIR objects
• plc_instances_file_2nd.xfm containing remainder of objects
so that user can easily create program in correct execution order. Import the files in the following order:
• Communication_DS.xst (contains recipe variables now)
• plc_instances_file_1st.xfm
• plc_logic_file.xfm
• plc_instances_file_2nd.xfm
• Append project name to above filenames.

=== Upgrade procedure ===
If you need to re-import devices in PVSS:

• Upgrade UAB project and re-generate your importation file with your desired devices
• If you are upgrading from RP 1.3.1:
• If you want to import AI/AO: remove AIR/AOR inside the importation file by hand before importing.
• If you want to import AIR/AOR: You need first to delete all AI/AO/AIR/AOR in PVSS database and then reimport your new file.

In order to upgrade a SIEMENS PLC:

• Before the upgrade:
• Make a backup of your UAB project (or make sure all files are committed to SVN)
• Do the UAB resource-package upgrade
• Regenerate files you want to change in PLC and all symbols
• In case you have made user code in Step7, export and save the sources with your user SCL code
• Re-import in your PLC application the generated source files and all symbols
• Re-import the new PLC baseline
• Re compile Baseline and new files
• In case you had made user code in Step7, reuse your user SCL code previously saved
