Being the curious guy I am, I opened it an found the "Nasty Deadband" rearing its head again. It was each and every ain,pida,and accum(amrtin only) showing "Error on parameter". I guess since the CP60 image is version 6.5.3 and don't support these parameters the upload must be trying to get them anyway and times out since it can't. If I have say 600-1000 of these blocks in a cp that could explain the long time to upload a CP. Has anyone else seen this or written a CAR? I show this on all my CP60's that are in my system.

They show up smurfed. I'm guessing that you mean that they are smurfed on the Detail Display. Is that correct? Yes it is. If so, what you are seeing is correct. The CP60 image was not updated for these parameters and the detail displays can't show them for that reason. I believe that they are related to time based realarming.
