Search Utility errors

Dear all,

I have an issue with the Search Utility.  When I click to the Search button on the DeltaV operate I got a popup message " Error Number: 5(5) Invalid procedure call or argument" , then I click "OK" it has another popup message "Error Number 9(9) Subscript out of range". Anyone knows what went wrong with the DeltaV workstation and how can I fix it? Thank in advance.

  • You can look in the MODT.SCR file (don't edit it..it's in the DOWNLOAD folder).  Sometimes it puts a return character for the faceplate, detail, and/or main picture.  Scan through that and you'll see some of the modules are split into two lines.  Write those modules down and what is referenced before the split in the lines, and rebind it DeltaV Explorer by searching for the file instead of typing it out.

    Look for " ' " (single qoute) characters in control module´s description and remove it all, try to remove any symbol character in control module's description. However you should download and install the last deltav workstation update from your guardian support site, that should resolve this issue too.

  • One reason of this issue is commonly bulkedit imports , where in the last column of the bulk, (fmt file),there is a composed data, i.e.: AI1.L_TYPE I mean any data with point, due that I always in all bulks by default I put the Scan Rate item in the last column.
     
    I hope this will be useful for you, the fast way to fix it is run a bulk for all modules, or if in the MODT.SCR are few you can fix it manually.
     
    Best Regards
