Re: [foxboro] IEE - CP Initialize/download time way too long

I wonder how much of that time is the CP and how much is the IEE tool 
parsing/sending the data?  CP30s are not this slow with ICC, so I'm 
leaning towards the tool as the culprit.

Interesting info here, and I hope you find a resolution to this.  We just 
saw an Invensys presentation that included IEE amongst other things.  It 
looked better than IACC, though the GUI definitely is not conducive to 
rapid banging in of blocks by experienced I/A pilots.  We got told that 
one solution to that was the scripting API, which was "ICC driver task on 
steroids".  Oh well, we all know what too many 'roids will do to you :)

Re: [foxboro] IEE - CP Initialize/download time way too long






Hi Shaun

        I have been doing this download to the entire CP. I don't know if 
I=
 can break the marriage and download to only 1 CP (for four hours) then 
whe=
n complete tell the new image to take over. That would be very cool :)

        I know that there is a way to do something similar to this for the 
=
CP-image (CP's Operating System)

        In my mind 4 hours is not acceptable on a "Hi-Speed Mesh Network" 
w=
ith W2003 Server that can run circles around my old AW51. I am know that 
si=
milar loaded CP's on the old classic 10Mbit Hub node only took 5-15min 
load=
ing into a CP40. So needless to say the 100Mbit hi-speed network with 
FCP27=
0 should be quicker or at least the same amount of time. To make this 
proce=
ss 4hours is NOT progress in my mind.

        I have no idea what you mean by changing major rev digit?

Thanks

Peter
