#1  - You can select the environment that FoxView or Display Manager uses on 
start-up.  Edit the fv_cmds or 
      wp51_cmds file
 
#2 -  The Alarm document  you need depends on the version of IA that you are 
using.  Older versions use B0193RV.  You have a large number of options to 
change the look of the CAD.  You can protect certain field under different 
environemts.  There are some quirks for fonts and other presentation features, 
but it is very flexible. The B0700AM is dated 2005 and I think applies to V8.
 
#3 - Sorry 
 
#4 - Letterbugs ( Remember KISS)  When they are built with the correct length 
of pins they are awesomely simple and easy to read and work like a charm.  They 
are certainly much better than an easily stolen, mis-placed or mal-functioning 
PDA, especially since we still need letterbugs for FBM's.  Second choice might 
be a 
USB port but then we still have to mark the actual CP so you can read the 
letterbug on the module. I would vote no for dip switches, if that became a 
possibility. Hand marking an identifier onto the modules can make your very 
expensive systems look like crap.

Subject: [foxboro] A host of questions for the professors



When the student is ready, the teacher will appear. -Saying to
promote the understanding of Zen (or Timon to Pumba in the Lion King 1.5)

I'm here? This doesn't look right.  -me to a garmin gps



OK Professors, the student has arrived.  Or is it the other way around?

Question 1) 5 pts discussion
Can you safely (what consequences are there if any) delete the
Initial environment?

Question 2) 15 pts show all work
What are the correct steps to remove buttons from the alarm manager
displays so that they are gone when the alarm manager restarts.
Is manual B0700AM correct, if so why?

Question 3) 10 pts
After setting the SIMOPT=1 and SIMCIN = 0XFFFF why does the PLB
ladder show simulate, but non of the CINs are shown high?

Question 4) 10 pts discussion
How stupid is the way a PDA is required to set letterbugs on
FCP270s?  What benefit does this provide a plant employee?

You have exactly 1 hour.  You may begin now.

David
