Hi
I plane to upgrade DeltaV system, One station is upgraded and put it in service to check the system, everything seems normal but after 3 or 4 days ( less than one week) some data links show zero value or communication error (data link show @@@@) and after restart back to normal. Is this status normal? And I/O upgrade is required?
The system version is 6.3, plan to upgrade to 11.3 and controller type is MD
Best Regards
Mohsenv

In reply to MOH:
Upgrading from V6.3 to V11.3 is a major undertaking, and any missteps may put your plant in an unsafe state. I strongly urge you to seek support/assistance on this upgrade from your local Emerson service organization. Here are some forum posts from the LinkedIn DeltaV group and Emerson Exchange 365 discussing Deltav migrations which will give you an idea of the challenges faced. https://www.linkedin.com/grp/post/1270757-246071819 http://community.emerson.com/process/emerson-exchange/operateandmanage/deltav/f/50/t/3646 Again please do contact your local Emerson service organization if you have not done so.
