See this guide to understand the overall product, release interoperabilities, systemdependencies, problem resolutions, known issues, and special considerations. The SCN must be readilyavailable for reference at any stage of Experion PKS R520.1 system setup.

2.3 Change impact

Change impact addresses the areas where control, operational, or infrastructural changes are delivered aspart of the PAR fix. This is observed when migration occurs from a prior release to the current patch. Anoticeable change in behavior is observed after installing the patch. This section describes such change inbehavior.

2.3.1 Control change impact

Not Applicable.

- 11 -

Chapter 2 - Introduction

Chapter 2 - Introduction

2.3.2 Operational change impact

PAR 1-CVZG4X5

Description: In Experion R520.1, "Enable display call up events" is checked by default for newly installedsystems.

Impact: This change was made as journaling display call up events enables improved analysis of operatoractivity. There is no impact to system performance.

PAR 1-CVPKOUT

Description: In Experion R520.1, “Disable Server handling of SP/OP keys” is checked by default for newlyinstalled systems.

Impact: This change was made in response to concerns about potential unintended control change. Thefollowing describes the behavior of this setting:

Option unchecked:

l On a custom display Select alpha that is bound to any parameter of a SCADA point. Example: PV

l Confirmed that message zone shows correct point.parameter

l Press Select OP keyboard shortcuts.

Result: Alpha continues to be selected but in the message zone you see that the parameter now is OP.Any raise/lower now applies to OP

l Press Select SP keyboard shortcuts

Result: Alpha continues to be selected but in the message zone you see that the parameter now is SP.Any raise/lower now applies to SP.

Option checked:

l On a custom display Select alpha that is bound to any parameter of a SCADA point. Example: PV

l Confirmed that message zone shows correct point.parameter

l Press Select OP keyboard shortcuts.

Result: Invalid Operation error is seen in the callout. Object selection is lost

l Press Select SP keyboard shortcuts

Result: Invalid Operation error is seen in the callout. Object selection is lost

Maximum number of characters for a value in the 'Value' field of Events

Description: In Experion R520.1, the maximum number of characters for a value in the 'Value' field ofEvents has increased from 24 to 40 characters.

Impact: This change may impact processing of results returned through querying of events from clientapplications, such as through the ODBC driver, if the client application does not handle the potentiallylonger value string gracefully.

PAR 1-DRVRKIF

Description: In Experion R520.1, the "window.external.close" HMIWeb display script function may nowclose a SafeView window.

- 12 -

Impact: In Experion R520.1, a Station window managed by SafeView will now close when the'window.external.close' script function is executed when in previous releases a script error would occur andthe window would not have closed. This script function is documented as the recommended way to close apop-up and the fix in Experion R520.1 for PAR 1-DRVRKIF corrects the behavior such that it will also closea Station window managed by SafeView.

PAR 1-D6OTUGN

Description: Unable to open duplicate faceplates across multiple monitors when opened usingRequestTask via script.

Impact: The resolution requires the following registry setting to be present and set to value 1.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Honeywell\Station\Faceplates].

NOTE

Only systems affected by the above PAR should set this key.

PAR 1-CU7ZNAJ

Description: Prolonged rapid F4 key taps may cause non-responsive Station when tap/raise lower isenabled.

Impact: The resolution (delivered in an earlier patch) requires the following registry key to be set.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Honeywell\Station]

"EnableDiscardAckSilKey"=dword:00000001

Rapid and continuous press in F4 key over a long period can cause high CPU issues in Station.

This will cause the station to discard F4 key taps within a 250 ms period.

2.3.3 Infrastructural change impact

Switch configuration to support VLAN for C300 (PCNT05) and CN100

Description: Embedded FTE Tab is now configured in Configuration Studio and is Read Only in ControlBuilder. The switch configuration process is now integrated into the Configuration Studio Network Tree andthe configuration files must be generated using “Add/Configure/Replace Switch” task in ConfigurationStudio.

Impact: Unable to configure “Embedded FTE preferences” using Control Builder starting from R520.1 andlater releases. You must configure switches using Configuration Studio.

Due to changes in Microsoft Windows On-Screen keyboard, PanelPC may require the following registrysetting:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\TabletTip\1.7]

"DisableNewKeyboardExperience"=dword:00000001

6.15 PCNT05 (C300) Controller Features

CC-PCNT05 is a new variant of the C300 controller that provides most heavily used features of itspredecessor platforms, the CC-PCNT01 and CC-PCNT02. This includes all function block libraries relatedto Regulatory Control, Discrete Control and Logic, Sequence Control and Batch, as well as Custom DataBlocks (CDB) and Custom Algorithm Blocks (CAB). PCNT05 is for new installations only. It is not a directreplacement for PCNT01/PCNT02.

Communication capabilities supported by the CC-PCNT05 include Modbus/TCP using PCDI, EtherNet/IPvia EIM, Profinet via EIM, Profibus via PGM, Exchange communication, Enhanced VLAN based IO HIVEcommunication with the CN100, and CDA peer-to-peer to C300, ACE, UOC etc.

The Hardware design of the CC-PCNT05 is based on the latest generation of embedded microprocessortechnology and, unlike its predecessor, supports an extended temperature range from -40°C to +70°C. TheCC-PCNT05 control processor module can be mounted on the same IOTA as its predecessor, whethermodel CC-TCNT01 or model DC-TCNT101. Like its predecessor, the CC-PCNT05 may be connected toExperion’ s FTE network through the CF9 control firewall but it may also be connected directly to a level 2switch as it has its own, built-in, firewall. The new hardware CC-SCMB05 is introduced to provide powerback up in support of controller retention restart on power loss.

6.16 Support for configuring specific alarm description inDATAACQ block

6.17 Experion Network Segments

Experion network segments provide logical separation of communication with different high availabilitymechanisms over a single physical network. The following network segments are supported.

1. Supervisory (FTE) – for all communication not separated into other segments; legacy FTE from whenonly one network segment existed.

2. Control and IO – used for control-IO and control-control peer-peer communication.

3. Control HIVE Management – used for Control HIVE coordination of HIVE controllers and HIVE ControlApplications.

The Supervisory (FTE) network segment uses the legacy four path FTE fault tolerance approach for highavailability, and the Control and IO and Control HIVE Management network segments use a two pathParallel Redundancy Path (PRP) mechanism for high availability.

The Experion network segments are configured as part of the FTE community configuration inConfiguration Studio. After the network configuration is published to Experion Servers, the networksegment information is distributed to controllers during controller boot-up by a system configurationservice. This service works in conjunction with the Experion BOOTP server to provide complete networkconfiguration for managing system-wide communication.

6.18 Support for OPC UA Server on a UOC Controller

The OPC UA Server can be configured on a UOC controller and provide read and write data access to anOPC UA Client. The following project configurations are enabled in this release:

6.22 IEC61850 interface history backfill support

Prior to Experion R520.1, the IEC61850 interface only backfilled data when communications were lostbetween an Intelligent electronic device and the Experion Server or Data Concentrator.

In Experion R520.1, the IEC61850 interface has been enhanced to enable backfilling of sequence ofevents and data for buffered and unbuffered reports for all connected IEDs during server switchover orfaiLoss of Viewer.

6.23 DSA security enhancement

In Experion R520.1, the communication protocols for DSA link monitoring have been changed from UDP toTCP/RPC. This improvement aligns it with existing DSA Data and Notification protocols and deliversassociated security benefits.

For DSA connections to other R520.1 servers, no additional configuration steps are required, but incorrectDSA account configuration will now cause a link failure.

For DSA connections to pre-R520 servers, an 'Enable UDP link' option exists and it is automaticallyenabled during migration for existing connections.

- 42 -

ATTENTIONFor DSA connections between R520 and pre-R520 servers, there is now a requirement to configureDSA in both directions so that 'Enable UDP link' can be selected on the R520 side. Ensure thisconfiguration is done prior to starting R520 migrations on your site.

Servers can remain 'external' to each other (in different Systems) and DSA does not have to beenabled in both directions, so your DSA license count will not be affected.

6.24 Experion Batch Historian and Reports

The Experion Batch Historian is an optional component on the Experion installation media, and is includedin the Experion Batch Manager license.

Important features:

l Install on a single Experion Server node to collect events and provide batch data for an entire site

l Built-in statistics in multi-batch reports for troubleshooting and identifying abnormal or “golden” batches

l Read-only ODBC access to Batch Historian data for Excel or 3rd-part application integration

l Automatic archiving and retrieval allows up to 30 years of batch data to be instantly accessible forreports (assuming sufficient customer file storage)

l Data Integrity Compliance for validated industries

l Reports for Procedural Operations ("Proc Ops") also supported

6.25 Support for Automated Device Commissioning (ADC) inCN100

ADC and other Project Engineering Tools (PET) operations can be performed on a Series C HART I/OModule configured on a CN100.

6.26 Experion compatibility with Domain Controller

8.3 SafeView workspaces

Existing SafeView workspaces may require modification in order to load. This is because SafeView hasbeen modified to disallow certain sub-optimal workspace constructs, specifically:

l Windows or groups that share the same name with any other window or group in the same workspace.

l Any group that has only a single element, such as, a single group or a single window inside the group.

As of this release, SafeView will reject to load any workspace with either of these sub-optimal constructs,noting the nature of the load/syntax error in a dialog box.

Before you load any existing SafeView workspaces after this upgrade, vet all of the operational SafeViewworkspaces by either:

- 57 -

1. Load them into SafeView textedit.exe and perform a 'syntax check' operation, or

2. Load them into SafeView runtime and make sure there is no error dialog reported, followed bystopping of the SafeView workspace load. If an error is indicated, follow the below steps.

l Rename any indicated duplicated window or group name to anything else.

l Ungroup any indicated item that is alone in a group.o If item is a group, simply remove the group/end group clause.o If item is a window, do the same, but place any match expression for the group inside

the window itself.

l After any necessary changes, make sure, there is no longer, any error reported when loading orsyntax-checking each modified workspace.

8.4 Terminology updates

Beginning with R520.1, the following system-wide terminology changes have been made to improveconsistency:

to indicate New Terminology

The relationship between controller clocks Primary/Secondary

The relationship between communication protocols Master/Responder

8.5 FTE Node Details on Community/Status Display

8.7 C300 (PCNT05) reported Connected Timeout and P2PRound Trip alarm when Console brought up with DUP DI

To ensure uninterrupted operation of controllers and stations it is important to validate that IP addressesand FTE device indexes are unique when commissioning a new node. This is especially true of IO HIVEimplementations where there are multiple networks being integrated. If a duplicate is brought online theexisting node may experience a loss of IO vlan communication. The new node should be taken offlineimmediately and properly addressed.

8.8 Unable to load $Server under Peer Configuration tab onC300v2/v3E, C300 (PCNT05) and ACE nodes

Follow the below steps.

1. Remove the $SERVER from “Peer Configuration” tab.

2. Close and Reopen Control Builder.

3. Open any one CEE configuration in which $SERVER is successful; navigate to “Peer Configuration”tab and then close it.

4. Performed the above steps one time in Control Builder before you configure $SERVER.

5. Configure $SERVER in CEE and then Load the CEE.

8.9 During Boot Firmware upgrade from UEA_100.1-11.0 toUEA_110.1-03.0, Boot Firmware fails to flash (PAR 1-DWUOMNV)

When you perform a Boot Firmware upgrade from UEA_100.1-11.0 to UEA_110.1-03.0, Boot Firmwarefails to flash saying "Send Command Failed: Error Response = (1017) Cannot Upgrade firmware. Module ison-control".

To flash UEA recovery image, perform the following steps.

1. Upgrade Primary and Backup ENIMs APP image to the latest Experion version by following thestandard on-process migration procedure.

2. When both Primary and Backup ENIMs are with the latest Experion APP image, shutdown BackupENIM from platform block and ensure it is in RDY state.

3. Flash UEA Recovery image to Backup ENIM. Reboot Backup module from Firmware Manager tool.Load Backup ENIM from Native Window once it shows PWR_ON. FaiLoss of Viewer ENIM.

4. Shutdown new Backup ENIM from platform block and ensure it is in RDY state.

5. Flash UEA Recovery image to new Backup ENIM. Reboot the module from Firmware Manager tool.

6. Reload the Backup ENIM from Native Window.

1-DX1Q2MJ IXP-Import Export Usability Error Indication: C300 TARGETPLATFORMparameter has unexpected value.

Description: Starting in R516.1, the C300platform blocks common template has a newTARGETPLATFORM parameter used toidentify the planned C300 hardware type.When migrating to R520.1, the toolsautomatically initialize the C300 platformblocks TARGETPLATFORM parameter basedon the C300 platform blocks CAPABILITYparameter setting as follows:

CAPABILITY = disabled results inTARGETPLATFORM = PCNT01

CAPABILITY = enabled results inTARGETPLATFORM = PCNT02

The anomaly is that initialization occurs whenTARGETPLATFORM was previously initialized.For example, when importing a template thathas TARGETPLATFORM = PCNT05 andCAPABILITY = enabled, theTARGETPLATFORM is erroneously updated toPCNT02.

Recovery: Loading TARGETPLATFORM set toPCNT01 or PCNT02 does not cause anyloading errors but it is recommended tomanually reconfigure the TARGETPLATFORMto match the planned C300 hardware typefollowing C300 Platform Block Import orERDB Migration.

12.1 Purpose

This section covers the testing and support status of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA)interfaces.

12.2 Interface support level

Honeywell provides varying levels of support for each SCADA interface dependent on availability ofhardware and the level of support third-party vendors support their software. The following table providesthe levels of support.

SCADAInterfaceSupportLevel

Description

Supported SCADA interfaces that are fully supported by Honeywell and third party vendors.

If interface relies on third party drivers then these are officially supported andqualified on the platforms required by Experion.

Validated SCADA interfaces that have been validated by Honeywell or independently by acustomer on Experion. However, these SCADA interfaces rely on third-party vendorswho have either withdrawn the interface or do not officially support the platformsrequired by Experion. Honeywell support may be dependent on third-party vendors.

NotValidated

SCADA interfaces that have not been fully validated by Honeywell on Experion. TheseSCADA interfaces either rely on third-party vendor software that were not supportedon the platforms required by Experion during development, or there is limitedhardware availability or the hardware is obsolete. Honeywell support may bedependent on third-party vendors.

12.3 SCADA Interface Support
