Mixed G2 + G1 system - LSM 3.5 SP3 Basic Online
The advantages of a mixed system (using G1 and G2 components in a locking system at the same time) also bring small disadvantages (poor overview of components used; not a real G2 experience).
Mixed systems basically operate in a G1 environment. The only advantage of a mixed system is that G2 components can also be used at the same time. G2 components are limited in their use in a mixed system.
A mixed system can enable older G1 components and current G2 components to be used at the same time. The backward-compatible support for older components enables you to use existing components or components already in use efficiently. This function is specially designed for such special cases. However, you are not able to use individual, particularly convenient properties of G2 components.
