Migrate from SSv4#

The process to migrate a project from Simplicity Studio® 4 (SSv4) to Simplicity Studio 5 (SSv5) depends on the type of project.

If you are migrating a Bootloader, EFM32, or EFM8 project, use the Migrate Project tool. If you are migrating a Z-Wave, Bluetooth/Bluetooth Mesh, Proprietary Flex, or Zigbee project, follow the instructions in the specified documents.

Bootloader, EFM32, and EFM8 Projects#

Click the Tools toolbar button to open the Tools dialog. Select Migrate Projects and click OK. Select the project to be migrated and click Next.

Z-Wave Projects#

Follow the instructions in the knowledge base article Migrating a Z-Wave project from GSDK 2.7.6 to GSDK 3.0.0.

Zigbee, Flex, and Bluetooth/Bluetooth Mesh Projects#

These projects cannot be migrated using the tool. Instead, refer to the following documents:

Zigbee: QSG106: Getting Started with EmberZNet PRO
Flex: AN1254: Transitioning from the v2.x to the v3.x Proprietary Flex SDK
Bluetooth: AN1255: Transitioning from the v2.x to the v3.x Bluetooth SDK
Bluetooth Mesh: AN1298: Transitioning from the v1.x to the v2.x Bluetooth Mesh SDK

If you try using the tool, in most cases the tool will point you to the documentation for the migration process.
