Ovation
Ovation System Interface station software requirements:
• AMS Device Manager 12.5 can be installed on the following Ovation 3.3.1, 3.4,
and 3.5 stations:
If you have FOUNDATION fieldbus devices, it is recommended that a licensed AMS
Device Manager Client SC Station be installed on the Ovation Database Server (see
“Preparing the Ovation system” on page 92).
To install AMS Device Manager on an Ovation network, see the procedures in
“Installing AMS Device Manager 12.5 on Ovation stations” on page 70.
For device support, you can configure AMS Device Manager with an Ovation system
as follows:
• For HART devices:
— If you want to access HART devices on your Ovation system, AMS Device
Manager Server Plus software and the Ovation System Interface can be
installed on any Ovation Station or on a standalone PC.
— AMS Device Manager supports burst mode messages from HART devices
on Ovation Stations using analog output card 5X000167 only.
• For FOUNDATION fieldbus devices:
— For Ovation 3.3.1 and 3.4, the AMS Device Manager Server Plus Station
must be co-deployed on any Ovation Station with the Ovation fieldbus
engineering software installed. Configure the Ovation System Interface
on this station.
— For Ovation 3.5 and later, a licensed Client SC must be installed on the
Ovation Database Server. Configure the AMS Device Manager Ovation
System Interface with F
OUNDATION fieldbus selected on the Ovation
Database server to take advantage of the Ovation HSE Server. The AMS
Device Manager Server Plus Station can be co-deployed on an Ovation
Operator Station but not the Ovation Database Server.
