(1)

Application usage on Servers greatly effects the CPU resources. A CPU upgrade or platform upgrade should be

considered if your primary usage of the applications will be on the Servers. On Redundant Systems, primary
application usage should be on the Backup Server.

(2)

The Station application affects the Client and Server Nodes. The memory should be added on both physical PCs

per application. For example, if the Server is going to support 5 Stations, then you would require an additional 25
MB (5 x 5).

(3)

These applications are more for configuration and typically are not run all the time. They represent a one-time

memory allocation when running. When considering additional RAM requirements, you should only include those
applications in which you intend to run on a daily or constant basis.

(4)

If NIFB is run on the Primary ProcessLogix Server or the Server is Non-Redundant, you are limited to only 8 Linking

Devices. This applies only to 1757-CN2FF access to Foundation Fieldbus devices. It does not apply to FIM access.

(5)

While using the NI FBUS Configurator, you can only monitor 1 Linking Device at one time. This application should

only be run on the Backup Server (if redundant) as this will put an additional CPU load on the system
approximately 35% higher than the normal running state. If run on a Non-Redundant Server, it is required that you
have a more performance CPU configuration. This applies only to 1757-CN2FF access to Foundation Fieldbus
devices. It does not apply to FIM access.

(6)

RSBatch includes multiple services and applications.

(7)

This upgrade requirement is per Server Node.
