Hi,
We are on the process to upgrading our Fox. I/A 50 series based DCS system
to integrate the MESH network, new P90 AWs and new ZCPs.

The upgrade scope is the one below:

   1. Upgrade of 2 AW51D to 2 P90 on the Mesh network (V6 to V8 running
   on WS 2003)
   2. Upgrade of 1 AW51E to 1 P92 on the Mesh network (V6 to V8 running
   on WS 2003)
   3. Add a Mesh network and associated link to existing Nodebus (ATS)
   4. Nodebus CP Host left on 51F
   5. Upgrade 2 CP40B to ZCP270

This upgrade will bring also to migrating all existing DM MMIs to FoxView,
keeping the AIM Historian on Nodebus and the upgrade of FoxAnalyst to Trend
View.

I want to investigate the reliability of such upgrade and the overall system
integrity when interfacing Nodebus and Mesh. What i may encounter and any
issue i need to consider.

I'd like to share some feedback, experiences, case studies and lesson
learned on similar projects.

Thanks for your time.

Cheers
