디지털, 컨텐츠, 분석: 선택이 아닌 필수 B2B에서 고객 경험은 무시할 수 없는 중요한 사안입니다. 특별히, CEB의 Marketing Leadership Council(마케팅 리더십 자문 위원회) 및 Google은 “구매 과정의 57%는 B2B 구매자가 영업 사원과 접촉하기 이전에 이미 완료된다”는 놀라운 사실을 제기했습니다. 이 사실에 입각해 본다면, 고객 경험의 중요성은 더욱 부각될 수 밖에 없습니다. 고객 관련 디지털 개발 정황에 영향을 미치는 외부적 사안의 검토를 통해, 이러한 현실의 시사점에 대해 논의하는 글을 소개합니다. 디지털 마케팅의 성공을 위해서는 디지털 통합, 컨텐츠 마케팅, 분석의 세 가지 주요 요구사항에 대한 관리가.......

Blog Post: Tip #68: Find the Best Valve Location
When I am in an instrument and valve repair shop, I see many more control valves than instruments, particularly with the advances in sensor technology, transmitter intelligence, and asset management systems. Valves are mechanical devices and as such require more maintenance. packings, seals, seats, and O-rings wear out. To ease maintenance, a control valve must [...]

Forum Post: RE: Management VLAN for DeltaV Networks
Technically DeltaV does not support the use of VLANs in the DeltaV network. It does create a possible security issue as the VLAN as described would be connected directly to the external LAN and VLANs can be bridged and access gained to the DeltaV network. Also all of DeltaV testing is done without VLANs and DeltaV expects to have access to 100% of the network bandwidth.
Perhaps the real question is what does IT want to monitor (be sure they do not have any write access to the switch if they do insist on doing this monitoring) DeltaV network traffic has very low bandwidth usage and we do monitor the network for network problems and switch to the secondary network if issues. The system will also alert the user of there are network issues than impact communications. We have hundreds of DeltaV networks running successfully without issues without the need for added monitoring.

Subject: [EE365 DeltaV Track] Management VLAN for DeltaV Networks
Our company IT department approached me with a project to add a separate management VLAN onto our DeltaV Primary and Secondary Cisco switches (3750) for monitoring in SolarWinds. The switches themselves definitely support management VLAN configuration, but I'm not exactly sure how to answer them. The switches are physically isolated from the rest of the company's networks. I was assured that while adding a management VLAN will physically bridge the switches into the corporate domain, the network and data will be unaffected.
Has anyone done this before? Is this even supported or recommended by Emerson? Will this open up our network to extra security risks? Can this possibly affect the operation of controllers and workstations?
Thank you.

Forum Post: RE: For Monitoring only.
Hi Zar,
You can use any device with Ethernet/WIFI connection and installed Web Browser to monitor the gateway whether it is laptop, desktop, smartphone or a tablet like iPad. Because there is no need of special software to be installed just simply type the ip address on any web browser.
Hopefully that I understand your question correctly :)

Forum Post: RE: Dynamo highlight on active/inactive faceplate.
Geir,
This type of information is not part of the DVSYS.MODULE (controller-based) information; you are looking for application run-time information. The documents collection within the application should return all open documents, including the faceplate. You should be able to interrogate the collection to determine if one of the open documents is your faceplate, but since every member of a module class typically opens the same document, you might have to dig into a child element of the document to see if it is the one you are interested in....that is a lot to ask of an animation object.
You might be able to short-cut this by creating a new parameter for the module class which is written to true by the faceplate opening, and false by the faceplate closing; that is if you want to know whether anybody on any workstation in the whole network has it open. I can see this easily getting out of sync, however, if operate crashes or some other abnormal termination occurs.

Forum Post: RE: Batch redundancy
Istvan,
redundancy on the Batch historian has been viewed as less critical because the typical data sources, the .EVT from Batch Executive and the SQL or MDB Alarm Chronicle Events, are essentially buffered for a pretty substantial period of time in their native data source locations, typically. I've seen batch historians off line for weeks come back without losing any data because the .EVT and chronicle still have all the missed data. The historian simply picks up where it left off.
You can have multiple batch historians fed from the same souces, then have your MES aggregate the data from both, and/or build a temporary table in the query in which a 'distinct' statement will only get 1 copy of all records.
Campaign manager redundancy, just like batch executive redundancy is an available supported option in v11.3.

Forum Post: RE: Simulate DV11 - No way to load license file after new database creation
Hi Maarten
You'r right !
I have never been surprised by the dongle deconnection during loggon/off and you are right : After logoff, the parallel port status is not connected.
I've connected it before re-loggin, Flexlock only provides "adminstrator" loggon, but I was able to load the license, attribute it to the PP node and then, after the download, the default user reappears in the available users list in the FlexLock.
Many, many thanx, Maarten.
The first time i've encountered this problem I was forced to create a new Simulate machine.
Ouf. Merci
