Also, be very aware of (and be sure to ask at least twice about) the various P-code options and software/licenses (Foxview, Windows CALs, TSCALs, etc.) required to do what you need it to. We recently ordered/received a P91 (along with our switches and ATS) and the NIC cards (copper) didn't match the switches (24 port fiber) as specified, plus FoxView 10 s/w was missing. [The mix-up has been attributed to an apparently very recent model code change in P91 and that FoxView media was supposed to have been included in the ATS Jump Start kit]... =20 It appears that fortunately (with some extra effort) the situation will be rectified prior to actual installation during our Turnaround (starting in 3 weeks).

The fact that it runs OPC software excludes it from running version 8.x, thus being a boot host for the ATS's. I was confused and wanted everyone else to be also.
