Hello, does anyone have a solution for exporting EDD files for a device in DeltaV Explorer 12.3? While I can successfully export the .fhx file, I am unsure of how to convert it into the .ffo, .sym, and .cff files. Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Trevor.
Hello Trevor, I may not have experience using the DeltaV explorer, but I am aware that if the field devices are listed in the FieldComm Group's database of registered devices (which is closely monitored by FGC), you can easily access and download all the DD files from their website by simply knowing the part numbers. Ensure that the products are registered with FieldComm Group to access the necessary files.
I have submitted a support ticket to FieldComm Group regarding the DD files for El-O-Matic ELQ-800 Device ID 0990, rev 3. FieldComm Group informed me that they only have records of rev 4 for this device and provided me with the rev 4 files. As I am not well-versed in Foundation Fieldbus, I am unsure if revisions are compatible. Additionally, I have reached out to Emerson for assistance, and they are currently searching for the files.
Ensuring that the DD file matches the settings on the device is crucial for proper functionality. I trust that Emerson will offer you excellent support. Unfortunately, I lack experience with this particular field device, so I may not be able to provide much additional assistance.
I appreciate the information, thank you. This is my first time delving into Foundation Fieldbus for more complex tasks, so I see this as a valuable opportunity for learning and growth.
Firefighter (FF) training can be challenging, but once you grasp all of its intricacies, it becomes highly effective. We expect the Emerson team to provide assistance and support throughout your journey.
