  • I assume you are referring to the bulk edit add-in? If so it is located in "D:\DeltaV\DVData\BulkEdit" folder in v14, and I expect it is in the same folder location in v15.
  • Hello.

    You can find information on books on line.

    Log on as a user with administrator privileges.
    Start and exit Microsoft Excel.
    In Windows Explorer, navigate to \DeltaV\bin\ExcelAddInRuntime, and then double-click setup.exe.
    If the Excel AddIn Runtime dialog appears, prompting you to install additional required items, click the Install button.

    That addin only allows runtime data. On DV14 I was able to access historian as well. Do you know how I would go about adding that too?
  • The Excel Add-In is for runtime data. To get historical data from the DeltaV Continuous Historian you should install DeltaV Reporter following the instructions in the "Install DeltaV Reporter" topic in Books Online. (DeltaV Reporter installer is on the DeltaV media under \DV_Extras.)
