If the function is a Siemens propietary function you may not be able to view it, but it can still be converted.Not all S5 instructions can be converted into the S7-300/400 format. These are mainly the instructions to access the system memory areas (e.g. LIR, TIR, etc.) of a S5 CPU. These instructions cannot be used with an S7 CPU.
