I got the same reply this weekend.
The PER I submitted was:
Sequence and calc blocks have very limited math library. Previous workaround
was to use the math and Physical Properties libraries on a Unix AW with C
compiler and write small C programs to perform more complex math. As we move
to the Windows on Mesh servers, this method is no longer as feasable for a
number of reasons:
Computing power in modern controllers is capable of running more advanced
math
Windows servers are requiring more downtime than Unix AWs were
Foxboro no longer supplies C code examples and full APIs for the Windows
boxes
Cheers,
Kevin
