7representation by counsel.
8    (d) Probation, conditional discharge, periodic
9imprisonment and supervision shall not be revoked for failure

14condition at any time prior to the expiration or termination of
15the period, it may continue him on the existing sentence, with
16or without modifying or enlarging the conditions, or may impose

15impact incarceration shall be under Article 4. The term on
16probation, conditional discharge or supervision shall not be
17credited by the court against a sentence of imprisonment or
18periodic imprisonment unless the court orders otherwise. The
19amount of credit to be applied against a sentence of
20imprisonment or periodic imprisonment when the defendant
21served a term or partial term of periodic imprisonment shall be
