Re: [foxboro] OAJ in Aim

Searching a little more on this issue I have noticed that the OAJ also
displays this when changing environment in Foxview. This leads me to
believe that it is a different issue than what is described below. I did
a little test and found that the CAD sends msgs properly via Ethernet to
the historian box but they don't get stored properly. Is anyone else
seeing this problem. I started a call to TAC and wrote a CAR!(Alex) I
have a program that will parse aim and show you the values. If you wish
to look your system contact me offlist. Im interested in knowing if
anyone else is seeing the same.

The problem was first identified when importing the OAJ data with the
Alarm Management Tool PlantState Suite.  Only data originating from the
Alarm Manager (CAD) has the problem.  The problem has been seen on
Windows XP systems from 8.0B to 8.4.  I have not personally noticed the
problem on Ver 4.3, 6.x or 7.x running on either Solaris, NT4 or XP.

CAR 1008305 was entered June-2006.  A QF was released in July-2007, but
was withdrawn around two weeks later due to conflicts with other QFs.

CAR 1009910 was entered April-2007. This QF rolls up the above CAR with
a number of others.  As of February 2008 there was no estimated release
date for a QF for this CAR.

Reading through the release notes for AIM*AT 3.3
(http://support.ips.invensys.com/content/documents/iaseries/b0400/b0400e
l_e.pdf), the problem is not fixed by this release, which is
understandable as it is a problem with the Alarm Manager and not AIM.

Im not 100% sure about the problem being in the CAD, but I do know that
using aim spy the record shows them without the characters.
