• Experion PKS with PMD Controller Node Specific Production Document (Server, DM, HMI, RHS)

7.3 Migration considerations

You can migrate legacy systems (TPA and prior versions of PMD) to PMD R910.2 release. Only an offline migration supported. You can migrate all the existing System Definitions and Application Blocks from old TPA and PMD systems and make them compatible for PMD R910.2 database. In addition, it involves the migration of existing display files, alarms, Field Network definitions, history configuration, and report configuration.

You can migrate legacy systems (TPA and prior versions of PMD) to PMD R910.2 release. The following are the supported migration paths.

• TPA > PMD R612 > R900.1 (Offline Builder with TPA to PMD Migration Tool 151.1) > R910.2

• PMD R612 > R900.1 (Offline Builder with TPA to PMD Migration Tool 151.1) > R910.2

• PMD R720 > R900.1 (Offline Builder with TPA to PMD Migration Tool 151.1) > R910.2

• PMD R800.x > R910.2

• PMD R830.x > R910.2

• PMD R831.x > R910.2

To migrate an old TPA/PMD system to R910.2, ensure that the following are migrated.

• System definitions

• Application blocks

• FieldNetwork configuration

• TPA GUS display files (In case of TPA systems)

• HMIWeb displays


• History/trend/reports

9 Issues in Experion PKS with PMD Controller R910.2

The following are the issues in Experion PKS with PMD Controller R910.2 release.

PAR Description

CM00154840 Error Indication: On the LCD screen, ACTIVE/OK is visible instead of ACTIVE/Fail when the PROFINET cable from the controller gets disconnected. Description: FCE 3.0 remains in ACTIVE\OK state after PROFINET cable removal. Recovery: None Workaround: Alarm is generated when the PROFINET cable from any of interface gets disconnected. Engineer need to check the alarm and perform corrective action and should not rely on LCD display of FCE.

CM00128894 Error Indication: PMD Stations goes to white screen (Connection lost with server) after server switchover & does not connect to new primary server. Description: PMD Stations goes to white screen (connection lost with server) after server switchover & does not connect to new primary server. Recovery: None. Workaround: Refresh the Station.


PAR Description

1-TZ9Q9S Error Indication: Device Information links and PDF files are not available in PMD Status Monitor. Description: Device Information links and PDF files are not available in PMD Status Monitor. Recovery: None Workaround: Search for the PDF files manually provided by the Device vendor and refer to the PDF files.

1-W5VTNV Error Indication: Trip Value field in station does not display the PMD block name of 40 character length. Description: Trip value in station is limited to display 24 characters only for process and system alarms. If block name is passed as trip value, only first 24 characters of block name is displayed. Recovery: None. Workaround: The trip value has to be limited to 24 characters when it is used as input pin of ALAR_TDE block and FETCH blocks. Refer to the respective section in Basic Blocks User Guide document. When trip value for any system alarm is a block name, check the exact block name from Block builder.

PMD-524 Error Indication: Block operation become sluggish after expanding the block hierarchy. Description: Expanding the complete block hierarchy and performing block operation like open, save, search block name will become slow. Recovery: None. Workaround: Close DM and Re-open.

PMD-513 Error Indication: DM is not connecting if logged user is only part of domain user (Integrated Windows Authentication). Description: If domain user (who is not part of local user’s group) is logging in to design module PMD Builder fails to open. Recovery: None. Workaround: User created in Domain should also be created in Local Design module machine.


PAR Description

PMD-273 Error Indication: Journaling, value with Units are listed in previous value column of the events instead on Units column. Description: Previous Value column in Event Summary page displays both units and value. Recovery: None. Workaround: None.

PMD-407 Error Indication: Journaling, Previous value is not captured if the value change is from bar component of Control FP. Description: Any value changes done on control faceplate like SP, OP using Bar object will not have previous value recorded in Event Summary page. Recovery: None. Workaround: None.
