Device Description Update Manager
The purpose of Device Description Update Manager is to automate the installation of
device descriptions from Guardian Support into AMS Device Manager, DeltaV, and
Ovation through the Add Device Type utility. These device descriptions can be new or
updates to previously installed devices.The Device Description Update Manager
provides 2 ways to install device descriptions:
• Scheduled/fully automated
• User-initiated/interactive
There are 3 ways that this feature can be installed:
• Server Station
• Client Station
• Server/Client Station
The Server Station can be installed with or without an AMS Device Manager station
already installed but it must be installed on the same PC as the Guardian Software
Update Delivery Service download folder.
The Client Station must be installed on an AMS Device Manager 12.5 Server Plus
Station that can access the Server Station to initiate Guardian downloads. The Client
Station will be supported on an AMS Device Manager 12.5 Server Plus Station co-
deployed on either a DeltaV 9.3 or later or an Ovation 3.5 workstation.
In a Server/Client Station installation, both the Server Station and Client Station are
installed on the same Server Plus Station.
To install Device Description Update Manager:
1. Insert the AMS Device Manager DVD in the DVD drive of your PC.
2. In the Device Description Update Manager folder, double-click
DDUMInstall_Setup.exe.
3. Follow the prompts on the installation window.
