R500.1 Server Upgrade

Exporting the R400.0 Engineering Repository Database

Use the following procedure to export the Engineering Repository Database.

ATTENTION

!

All procedures listed in this section should be performed
with the system(s) Off-Process. Be certain that your
process is off control before you begin any upgrade
procedure. This means the 1757-PLX52 should be in the
Idle state.

IMPORTANT

You must export the ProcessLogix Engineering Repository
Database and save the Fieldbus Device Definitions before
proceeding.

To save Fieldbus device values and CM block parameter
values to the Monitor image, it is recommended to do the
following:

1. Upload with Contents of your Control Modules.

2. Update to Project, which will save the Monitor image

to the Project image.

This procedure captures the latest configuration changes.
Otherwise, after re-loading the CMs following the
Processlogix upgrade, changed values would be lost.
