DeltaV Operate for PROVOX. DeltaV Operate for PROVOX is the perfect solution if you are looking to replace your existing PROVUE, OWP, or POC consoles. Using DeltaV Operate for PROVOX, you can now operate your PROVOX system from a DeltaV workstation. As you expand over time with a DeltaV system, you can operate PROVOX and the DeltaV system from the same workstation. Migration services are also available to move your PROVUE and OWP displays to DeltaV displays.
Fault Tolerant Application Station. You can increase your applications' availability and the uptime of your process by using the Stratus ft3200, which is a fault tolerant server. Stratus ft3200 can be used to run all the applications supported on an Application Station, and it is a replacement for Marathon servers.
AMS HART Integration in Explorer. Ease of use and efficiency are enhanced in DeltaV v7.1. Now HART devices are shown in the DeltaV Explorer on HART I/O cards. And if AMS is installed, simply right mouse click on these devices and you'll have AMS functions such as Configure, Status, and Audit Trail. You can also autosense HART devices attached to a DeltaV HART card.
SimulatePro. To better train your operators, DeltaV SimulatePro has been enhanced with:
- Save and Restore capability -- Now you can take a snapshot of your system, save, and fully restore it quickly and easily. The snapshot of the entire system is saved in a file. You can then browse to the saved versions and restore them as needed. You can save your entire system in seconds.
- Fieldbus support -- Engineering checkout and operator training are a breeze now that you can fully test fieldbus configuration to run in the Simulate environment. The new Simulate conversion feature converts fieldbus device modules to the DeltaV equivalents.
DeltaV Inspect. Inspect helps you to resolve abnormal conditions by integrating process performance with device diagnostics. It tracks device faults that have occurred showing current devices with problems and devices that have had problems over the last day or over the last week. Inspect also provides the ability to launch AMS in context and perform a detailed diagnosis of the device.
Bulk Edit Enhancements. For fast engineering and project data population of your control strategy development, DeltaV v7.1 adds Bulk Edit support for DeviceNet cards and devices; process cells; unit modules, unit parameters, and aliases using MS Excel and MS Access.
Recipe Exchange. Recipe Exchange delivers an open, programmatic interface to the DeltaV recipe management system, giving you an easy way to author recipes outside the DeltaV system. Based on an open, interoperable, XML schema, the Recipe Exchange interface gives you the ability to import and export DeltaV recipes.
All recipe levels are supported, including procedures, unit procedures, operations, and formulas. You can assign recipes and initiate the download to one or more batch executives.
Recipe Authorization. For your electronic signature regulatory requirements like those specified in the FDA's 21 CFR Part 11, recipe authorization grants from one to five user approvals before a recipe can be released to production for use. The recipe authorization is tightly integrated with the Configuration Audit Trail and Version Management to track recipe changes, approvals, and comments. Using recipe authorization, unapproved recipes cannot be downloaded.
Dynamic Unit Selection. To give you the flexibility to select the equipment the recipe runs in at run-time, DeltaV Batch now supports dynamic unit selection. Operators simply receive prompts to select the equipment at the time it is needed by the recipe.
Multiple Batch Executives. To improve system availability for ongoing operations, maintenance, and upgrades, batch resources may be allocated among multiple Batch Executives. Now up to four Batch Executives can be assigned in a DeltaV system. For example, if a manufacturing facility has two production trains, each train can be assigned to a different Batch Executive, giving you the flexibility and security to divide your process units into logical areas. And, to take advantage of multiple Batch Executives, you can also have multiple Campaign Managers and Batch Historians.
