Jalen,
Full disclosure: I worked for PAS earlier in my career.
I would recommend at least comparing Foxray against te competitive product,
Integrity from PAS. It was endorsed by Invensys last I checked. I cannot
comment on the latest revisions, but I was keenly aware of the capabilities
when I worked at PAS and feel it warrants a kick of the tires.
Best regards,
Joe Schipani
