8. Maintenance, Checkout, and Calibration
8.1. Adding, Removing and Replacing Components
Moving a commissioned device to another link and then back to its original link after
only 1 to 20 seconds has expired, may leave the device in a half safe handled state. If the
FBAP VCR was cleared, the FIM and Control Builder may not be able to talk to the
device. If this occurs, Fieldbus blocks will appear gray on the Monitoring tab. In this
case, you will need to delete and reload the device or remove the device from the link
and put it back on another link for at least 30 seconds to allow the safe handling
operation to complete.
To avoid partial safe device handling, do not move previously commissioned devices to
other links in the system too quickly.
Replacing a failed device with a like device having the same model name and
device revision
TIP
If you are running R210 or greater software, a wizard will guide you through
the device replacement process when you initiate the action through the
device detail display in Station. In this case, you can ignore the following
procedure.
Use the following procedure to replace a failed fieldbus device with a like device having
the same Model Name and Device Revision (DEV_REV). The procedure assumes the
system is offline or in a safe operating mode. The illustrations used are for example
purposes only and may differ from the actual forms that appear in your system
