Talk to your Emerson Process management rep, they know a lot about these systems. We are one but maybe not in your area. Get us a zip code and we can point you in the right direction or go to this map to find one:

Joe, I spoke to the supplier, they ure usually very helpfull but I suspect this is not something they have done.
I just an article from EasyDeltaV about Ciber Security that ruled out e-mail so perhaps I need to go the hard-wired auto dialer route.
Thanks
Roy

We have an email system from DeltaV, sort of.
We actually send the DeltaV data through a firewall to Aspentech's IP21 (an external data historian). From here, the IP21 system can be programmed to send an email.
I imagine you could do something similar.

Controlnovice, I understand Aspentech is quite a sophisticated (expensive) package. Our application is a pilot skid operating on an infrequent basis. I thought there might be a simple solution.
BTW, did you see my other post about DeltaV I/O module problem (all except one flashing error). Have you or colueges seen anything like that?
Thanks

The data historian doesn't have to be Aspentech. I'm sure there are smaller, less expensive options. Not sure what they are.
Missed the post about DeltaV I/O module problem. Don't see it here. Was it recently?

Controlnovice,
All my modules (3 racks worth) but one showed "Bad Status" with the error light flashing and failed to communicate. The one and only AI module would work anywhere in the racks. We tested the modules in another system and found them OK. It seems that there must have been a loose connection on the backplane somewhere as the system is now working again without actually pinpointing the problem. I find it strange that the AI would always work though.
Regards
Roy

Removing and re-inserting the card(s) is one task to see why the cards don't communicate.
Another is to verify the card's hardware (data) matches what is in the ProPlus data. I forget the name of the application, but there is a verification application that compares the database in ProPlus with what is actually in the I/O cards. These need to match and can be updated using this application.

controlnovice,
DeltaV has an AutoSense function, you can plug all the cards in and do Autosense it will tell you what's in each slot, mine came up all empty except for the AI. Moving the AI around it would find it again.
The modules were checked in another system and found to be OK. After unplugging and reconnecting all the rack cables the system worked again, must have been a faulty connection somwhere. Who knows why the AI always worked?
Thanks for your help.
