1. Introduction
This manual details the procedures for installation of DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore®
Systems software. It explains installation options, general assumptions regarding software and
licenses required, setting up redundancy, interface upgrades and tips on APACS OPC software
and hardware installation. It is intended for use by someone who is familiar with APACS.
2. DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems Interface

Options
Before installing DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems, first install DeltaV software.
NOTE: DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems requires the APACS OPC Device Server
to be installed on the interface station (Application Station typically, or ProfessionalPlus for small
systems). Install APACS software and hardware after completing the DeltaV installation. See
Section 9 for more information about APACS installation.
The DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems installation procedure utilizes the industry
standard Installshield Setup program. The interface can be installed in three ways:
2.1. Typical Simplex Interface
An Application Station hosts DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems modules on its
Virtual Controller, while the ProfessionalPlus hosts engineering configuration of the interface.
This installation is recommended for systems larger than 8000 APACS parameters or more
than 500 DeltaV modules. Sections 4.1 & 4.2 detail the procedures for installing this type of
system interface, which includes components for both the ProfessionalPlus and the
Application Station.
The Application Station can be connected directly to the APACS Modulbus with an APACS
Modulbus and Modulnet Interface (MBI/MNI) card, or indirectly through a 3rd Ethernet card to
an IEM (Industrial Ethernet Module). If installing the MBI/MNI card, consult the Remove NIC
from WS370.doc document on this CDROM for details on how to properly remove the
Secondary Expansion Ethernet card, to make a PCI slot available for the MBI/MNI card.
Consult the Siemens installation instructions for details on installing the APACS OPC Device
Server software on the Application Station (and MBI/MNI card hardware, if directly connected
to APACS.) See also Section 9, APACS Software Setup.
2.2. Typical Redundant Interface

Installation requirements for the typical redundant interface are the same as for Typical
Simplex Interface, (detailed in Sections 4.1 & 4.2) except for the added steps of
“Redundancy Setup”, detailed in Section 5. An Application Station has the Redundant
Assigned Modules subsystem enabled. Two Application Station computers act as Preferred
Active and Preferred Standby to host the DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems
modules on their redundant Virtual Controllers. The ProfessionalPlus hosts engineering
configuration of the interface.
Server software on both the Preferred Active and Preferred Standby Application Station (and
MBI card hardware, if directly connected to APACS.) See also Section 9, APACS Software
Setup.
Note: APACS OPC Device Server installs Microsoft MSDE, which strongly associates
itself with the computer’s Node Name. Do not rename the Node Name after MSDE is
installed. The Preferred Standby Application Station’s Node Name will usually change
upon running DeltaV Workstation Configuration. Install APACS OPC Device Server after
DeltaV Workstation Configuration has been run and the Node Name will remain
unchanged.
Page 2 of 21
2.3. Small System Interface

For interfaces sized at or less than 8000 APACS tags and fewer than 500 DeltaV modules,
the ProfessionalPlus can have the DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems modules
running on its Virtual Controller as well as hosting the engineering configuration. Section 4.3
details the procedure for installing this type of system interface, in which all interface software
is installed on the ProfessionalPlus.. The MBI/MNI card is not supported for installation in a
ProPlus, so communication must be established through an Ethernet card to an IEM node.
Server software on the ProfessionalPLUS Station.
Note: APACS OPC Device Server installs Microsoft MSDE, which is a scaled-down
version of Microsoft SQL Server. Version Control and Audit Trail (VCAT) requires SQL
Server. If the ProfessionalPLUS node will have VCAT enabled, then one should install
the APACSOPCDeviceServer software after DeltaV has already installed SQL Server.
3. Before You Install

3.1. Pre-requisite Software
These procedures assume that the DeltaV ProfessionalPlus and Application Station software
has been installed, is operational, the APACS software / hardware is installed on the
Application Station and that the required APACS interface licenses have been assigned.
The DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems software is compatible with DeltaV v7.3
and higher. The DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems install set checks
compatibility with the DeltaV version and will not install on a version prior to DeltaV v7.3.
The DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems media CD includes required DeltaV Hot
Fixes when installing on DeltaV v7.3 and v7.4. These hot fixes are in addition to hot fixes
contained on the DeltaV v7.3 and v7.4 media, and MUST be installed prior to using DeltaV
Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems.
3.2. FHX File Import
The DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems ProfessionalPlus setup automatically
imports the APACS block definition FHX file (DCAPACS.fhx).
3.3. Conditions for Software Re-install
The DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems software is an add-on to DeltaV and
must be re-installed separately after any DeltaV install, re-install or generation of a new
database. DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems must be uninstalled and then
reinstalled during a DeltaV upgrade. (Refer to Section 8, Step 4.)
NOTE: If you use the DeltaV Database Administrator to create a new DeltaV database, you
will have to uninstall DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems on the
ProfessionalPLUS and then re-install it. This will automatically re-import the necessary FHX
file.

Installation
After installing DeltaV on the ProfessionalPlus and Application Station, and assigning the required
APACS interface licenses, install DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems software per
the following instructions in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 for large interfaces (>8000 APACS Blocks).
Proceed to Section 4.3 for small interfaces (<=8000 APACS Blocks).
4.1. Installing DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems Interface
on the Application Station
Follow these steps to install DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems on the
Application Station:
1. Make sure that DeltaV v7.3 or higher is installed on the Application Station before
installing the APACS Interface. Check the media CD for any DeltaV hot fixes that need
to be installed prior to installing DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems. Make
sure the proper DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems licenses are also
installed on the system prior to running this setup.
2. Copy the DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems software for the Application
Station to the hard drive of the Application Station. Create a new folder in the
/DeltaV/DVData directory called “APACS Interface” and copy the software to this location
(see Figure 1). Copy only the “Setup DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems
V1.1 For App Station.exe” file to this directory. Placing this in the DVData directory
prevents overwriting during a reinstall of the DeltaV software. The DeltaV Connect™
Solution for Moore® Systems software is not installed as part of the DeltaV installation
process and must be reinstalled using the procedure below every time DeltaV is
reinstalled.

with APACS MBI/MNI cards, but can be used with an Ethernet connection to the Modulbus
network.
Do the following steps to install the entire DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems
interface on the ProfessionalPlus Station.
1. Make sure that DeltaV v7.3 or higher is installed on the ProfessionalPlus Station before
installing the APACS Interface. Check the media CD for any DeltaV hot fixes that need to
be installed prior to installing DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems.
2. Copy the DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems software for the Professional
station to the hard drive of the ProfessionalPlus station. Create a new folder in the
V1.1 For ProApp.exe” file to this directory. Placing this in the DVData directory prevents
overwriting during a reinstall of the DeltaV software. The APACS Interface software is
not installed as part of the DeltaV installation process and must be reinstalled using the
procedure below every time DeltaV is reinstalled.

5. After the install completes, you must download the ProfessionalPlus.
5. Redundancy Setup
DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems is a “redundancy aware” interface. To utilize the
redundancy feature, DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems modules must be setup on
an Application Station with Redundant Assigned Modules enabled and the appropriate APACS
redundancy license assigned.
5.1. Maximum Number of Application Stations
The Application Station pair counts as one node in the DeltaV system. The DeltaV system
can host up to 10 Application Stations; therefore up to 10 pairs of Application Stations with
Redundant Assigned Modules subsystems are allowed on one DeltaV system.
5.2. Hardware Configuration
The Preferred Active and Preferred Standby Application Stations should have the same
hardware configuration (processor, system memory, hard drive, etc.) so that the standby
Application Station is capable of handling the DeltaV configuration should it become the
active Application Station.
NOTE: Attach both Application Stations to the DeltaV control network using Ethernet
switches (not hubs). The two partners utilize the DeltaV control network as their redundancy
link. A switch will isolate this node and contain redundancy related transmissions between
them, rather than transmitting them to other DeltaV nodes.
5.3. Enabling Redundancy
To establish Assigned Module subsystem redundancy in the Application Station pair, a
DeltaV System Administrator user follows these steps:
1. Locate the file “DvRAMEnab.exe” found in the folder C:\DeltaV\bin on the DeltaV
Professional Plus station. Running this application and enabling this option allows the
redundancy checkbox to appear on the Application Station Properties dialog.
2. Double-click the file to run the application. The redundancy checkbox appears (see
Figure 9).
3. Select the “Enable Redundant Assigned Modules” checkbox.
4. Close the application.

5. Stop and Restart the DeltaV Database Server using the DeltaV Database
Administrator utility. This is required for the Enable Redundant Assigned Modules setting
to take effect.
a. Launch the DeltaV Database Administrator (Start | DeltaV | Engineering |
Database Administrator).
NOTE: The status bar in the lower right corner of the Database Administrator
application should state “Database Server is Running”.
b. From the File Menu, select “Shutdown Server…”.
c. Select “OK” from the Shutdown Server dialog.
NOTE: If any DeltaV client applications are running, these clients will need to be shut
down prior to shutting down the DeltaV Database Server.
After the Database Server is restarted, manually or by starting DeltaV Explorer, the
DeltaV system has the ability to configure redundancy for the Assigned Modules
subsystem.
NOTE: To remove the ability to configure redundancy for the Assigned Modules
subsystem, uncheck the “Enable Redundant Assigned Modules” checkbox and stop the
DeltaV Database following the procedure in Step 5.
6. Edit Application Station Properties
a. Navigate in the DeltaV Explorer hierarchy to Control Network.
b. Right click on the Application Station and select ‘Properties’ from the menu. The
Application Station Properties dialog will appear (see Figure 10).
NOTE: The Preferred Standby Application Station is automatically assigned the
same name as the Preferred Active Application Station, appended with the suffix
“_S”. For example, if the Preferred Active Application Station is named
REDNODE, the Preferred Standby Application Station will automatically be
named REDNODE_S.

Station (as setup in the Properties dialog as noted above) from the list of
workstation names.
vi. Select Next.
vii. Select Yes when asked if this machine is to become the Preferred Active
viii. Workstation Configuration assigns the IP addresses, such as 10.4.0.x & 10.8.0.x,
to the Preferred Active Application Station.
e. On the workstation that is to become the Preferred Standby Application Station, run
Workstation Configuration. (Start | DeltaV | Installation | DeltaV Workstation
Configuration).
i. The DeltaV Workstation Configuration dialog appears. Select Next.
ii. Select the Workstation Type, Professional/Operator/Application/Base.
iii. Select Next.
iv. Browse to the newly created DevData.cfg file.
v. Select the same Application Station name as you selected for the Preferred
Active Application Station. This creates the relationship between the Preferred
Active and Preferred Standby Application Station pair.
vi. Select No when asked if this is to be the Preferred Active.
vii. Workstation Configuration assigns the IP addresses, such as 10.5.0.x & 10.9.0.x,
to the Preferred Standby Application Station. The Preferred Standby Application
Station name is also automatically assigned as the Preferred Active Application
name appended with _S, as noted above.
8. Assign the ‘DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems Function Blocks’ licenses
and the ‘DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems Redundancy’ license to the
Application Station pair.

b. Right click and select Download | Application Station.
c. Select Yes when asked to confirm the download.
5.4. Monitoring Active and Standby Status
To view the status of the Application Station pair, a DeltaV utility called “Status Tray” monitors
the condition of the Preferred Active and Preferred Standby Application Stations. The DeltaV
Status Tray utility mimics a DeltaV controller faceplate and indicates the current status of the
Application Station pair. The Status Tray utility appears as a yellow triangular icon in the
system tray in the lower right hand corner of each Application Station. To launch the Status
Tray utility, simply click the icon in the system tray (see Figure 11). The DeltaV Status Tray is
set to Auto Hide and Always On Top by default. To remove the Auto Hide and/or Always On
Top feature, right click anywhere in the field of the DeltaV Status Tray and uncheck Auto Hide
and/or Always On Top.
Page 15 of 21
Figure 11. Redundant Pair Status Faceplate
A more detailed view of the Application Station pair status appears in DeltaV Diagnostics on
the ProfessionalPlus. The Diagnostics application is not supported on the Application Station
pair. Launch diagnostics on the ProfessionalPlus and select the Preferred Active Application
Station (see Figure 12).
Figure 12. DeltaV Diagnostics Showing Redundant Application Station Node
Under its Redundancy subsystem, you’ll find the pair.. DeltaV Diagnostics reports the health,
status, and node address of the Preferred Active and Preferred Standby Application Stations
and the overall integrity of the communication path between the pair.
5.5. Data Transfer
The Standby Application Station may go to a “Partner is Available = No” state with a
Redundancy Status of “Failed Component” for a short period of time after the workstation is
Page 16 of 21
downloaded. This status indicates that the Standby Application Station is transferring
downloaded data from the Active Application Station. When the transfer is complete, the
Standby Application Station becomes available for use.
5.6. Manual Restart Requirement
After a switchover, DeltaV service on the formerly Active Application Station (now the
Standby) will shutdown. One must manually shutdown and re-start this Application Station in
order for it to participate in redundancy again.
5.7. Application Redundancy Limitations
When Assigned Modules subsystem redundancy is enabled in an Application Station pair,
only the Assigned Modules subsystem is redundant. No other Application Station
subsystems or applications being run on that Application Station are redundant. When the
redundant DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems interface is installed on
Application Station pair, only this application is redundant. No other DeltaV applications are
redundant. In the event that the active Application Station fails over to the standby
Application Station, only the control modules running in the redundant Assigned Modules
subsystem and the redundant DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems interface will
be available on the standby Application Station. All simplex applications running on the failed
active Application Station will not fail over.
Due to the fact that all simplex applications running on the active Application Station will not
fail over, only the following items and applications are supported for use on the Application
Station pair hosting the redundant Assigned Modules subsystem.
• Flexlock
• Help
• DeltaV Logon
• DeltaV System Tray utility
• Redundant DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems
The following DeltaV applications are not supported for use on the Application Station pair
where the redundant Assigned Modules subsystem is enabled. These applications may run
on the Application Station pair, but they are not supported in a redundant architecture.
Emerson Process Management strongly recommends that the following applications not be
run on the Application Station pair hosting the redundant Assigned Modules subsystem.
Inconsistent and/or erroneous data may result after an Assigned Module subsystem fail over.

is not supported on the Stratus Fault-tolerant Server.
6. Service
The Emerson Process Management technical support group provides service. The DeltaV
Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems interface is covered by DeltaV Foundation Support
services.
7. Uninstalling DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems

software
Use the Windows “Add or Remove Programs” feature available from Control Panel to uninstall
the DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems software from the Professional Plus and
NOTE: To remove the interface Function Blocks and Module Templates, one must create a new
database and set it to be the new active database.
8. Upgrading an Existing DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore®

Systems Interface
Use the DeltaV Upgrade Wizard to upgrade DeltaV software. Using the DeltaV Upgrade Wizard
provides the best procedure for cleaning up earlier versions of DeltaV Connect™ Solution for
Moore® Systems.
NOTE: At the midpoint of the ProfessionalPlus DeltaV software upgrade, one must divert from the
normal procedure to re-establish the DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems function
block library and supporting files.
1. After installing the new DeltaV version and rebooting the ProfessionalPlus,
a. De-select the 'import previous database' option within DeltaV Workstation
Configuration and
b. Proceed with setting up the workstation up to the point of launching DeltaV Explorer.
When DeltaV Workstation Configuration completes its checklist, it may prompt you to
install SQL Server. If it does, then proceed with installing SQL before continuing this
procedure.
2. After DeltaV Workstation Configuration Utility is completed,
a. Reboot or log off and log on
b. Log on to the DeltaV system. If using the DeltaV Upgrade Wizard, select Cancel
when the DeltaV Upgrade Wizard Restore dialog is displayed.
Page 18 of 21
3. Manually start the “DeltaV” service and log into DeltaV. Then use DeltaV Database
Administrator to create a new database.
a. Do not select the "Preserve Network Definition" option.
b. IGNORE the dialog instructing you to shutdown the DeltaV Database Server and run
Workstation Configuration.
c. Instead, set this new database to be your Active database. After doing so, IGNORE
the dialog instruction to download the ProfessionalPLUS workstation. Also, DO NOT
run Workstation Configuration Utility.
NOTE: If Version Control and Audit Trail (VCAT) was enabled on the previous DeltaV
version, then the currently active database and the previous version database names
must match, for VCAT to re-attach to the DeltaV configuration database. For example, if
in DeltaV v7.3 the configuration database was called "MyPlant" and VCAT was enabled,
then the configuration database must be called "MyPlant" in DeltaV v7.4 before enabling
VCAT. Use DeltaV Database Administrator to rename the configuration database, and
then refer to Books Online section "Maintaining Version Control History through a DeltaV
Upgrade" for details on re-attaching the VCAT database.
4. If upgrading from a previous version of DeltaV with DeltaV Connect™ Solution for
Moore® Systems, uninstall DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems & restart
Windows.
5. Install DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems for the ProfessionalPlus (covered
in Section 4.2 or 4.3, depending upon your system). This will import the APACS
configuration FHX files. This will also re-establish the necessary files to support the
runtime operation of DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems.
6. Import the configuration FHX, which was exported from the previous version of DeltaV
and has already been migrated by the DeltaV Upgrade Wizard using the Database
Migration Utility. This file can be located in the DVData.<date> directory.
a. Make sure that the configuration import is done with the "Include the data for a
DeltaV software upgrade" option enabled.
b. During the import select "No to All" when prompted to overwrite existing items.
7. Close DeltaV Explorer. Launch DeltaV Database Administrator, and choose File |
Shutdown server.
8. Run DeltaV Workstation Configuration Utility.
a. Click "Create ProPlus" when prompted.
b. On the next dialog that appears, click "Next".
c. Select ProfessionalPLUS workstation type and click "Next".
d. Click "Next" again to install the ProfessionalPLUS workstation.
e. Click "Next" again to collect information about the network environment. This
completes the Workstation Configuration utility.
9. Restart the DeltaV Upgrade Wizard to continue the upgrade of your DeltaV system with
DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems.
8.1. On-line upgrades
On-line upgrades can be done on an Application Station based interface if an Application
Station’s Assigned Modules Subsystem has redundancy enabled and the current Standby
node is operational.
A ”Simplex Interface” or “Small System Interface” cannot be upgraded on-line.
Page 19 of 21
NOTE: To transition from a Simplex Interface to a Redundant Interface, one must run DeltaV
Workstation Configuration on both machines in the Application Station pair, so this upgrade
cannot be performed on-line.
9. APACS Software Setup

Please follow the Siemens APACS software instructions. The following instructions are not
comprehensive, but they clarify the order of setup steps when using the APACS OPC server
with DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems.
1. In APACS configuration, declare an APACS Node / Rack / Slot address for the DeltaV
Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems interface computer.
Note: When installing redundant interface nodes, two unique APACS addresses must be
specified for the Preferred Active & Preferred Standby Application Stations.
2. On the DeltaV node that is hosting DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems
modules on its Virtual Controller, STOP THE DELTAV SERVICE before installing APACS
software. Stop the service from Control Panel/Services. This should be done after every
reboot, before proceeding with further installation of APACS software.
3. Install the APACS Option Pack C from CDROM.
4. If using an MBI/MNI card, Install that card after installing Option Pack C.
NOTE: Windows will detect the new hardware on the next reboot, and automatically find
the appropriate driver file for the MBI/MNI card hardware.
5. If using an IEM node, then the following steps are required:
a. Configure the MBI/MNI & Ethernet settings on the IEM node using the "USB drive
trick".
i. Plug in a USB drive and wait for about 30 seconds as the IEM writes to
it.
ii. Power down the IEM node and remove the USB drive.
iii. Insert the USB drive in another computer. Rename oldgateway.ini to be
gateway.ini.
iv. Use a text editor (e.g. Notepad) to open gateway.ini and define the Node
Name, IP Address & Subnet, and APACS Node / Rack / Slot.
v. With the IEM still powered down, insert the USB drive (with the modified
gateway.ini file). Power up the IEM node, which will detect the USB
drive and assume the configuration as defined within the gateway.ini file.
vi. Allow the IEM to shutdown and restart, which will allow these new
settings to take effect.
b. On the DeltaV node that is hosting DeltaV Connect™ Solution for Moore® Systems
modules on its Virtual Controller,
i. Create a text file called "hosts" (with no file extension) in the
c:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc directory, and add an entry for the IEM node
(e.g. 192.168.1.1 APACSIEM1) so that the APACS OPC Device Server can
locate the IEM node.
ii. Configure the APACS+ Control Panel to include the IEM's Node Name in its list
of Node Interface Modules (NIMs).
