AMS SCOPE

SCOPE OF WORK

TASK 1: REVIEW SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

Provide the Site Engineer with a structured opportunity to review the installation of components and instrumentation identified with the project. Validate the following information:

• Instrument and valve name plate information (model, type, vendor, travel range, serial number, etc.)

• Special operational characteristics

• Engineering design information as necessary

TASK 2: INSTALL AND LICENSE SOFTWARE

Accomplish the necessary steps related to the proper installation of the AMS Device Manager software. Expect to interface with I.T. group for network passwords.

TASK 3: CONFIGURE NETWORKS AND ESTABLISH DEVICE COMMUNICATION

Confirm that HART modems and field multiplexers, are I.T. personnel (as necessary) properly installed. Check successful communication to all devices, network interfaces, IP conflicts, etc.

TASK 4: CREATE OR VALIDATE THE INITIAL DATABASE STRUCTURE

Build instrument hierarchy that respects the logical collection of areas within a facility. Combine with device/user configurations.

- For off-line systems, end user will be instructed on how to utilize field communicators to capture device data for entry to database.

- For on-line systems, this includes an online download and configuration of device point.

TASK 5: SET UP OF ALERT MONITOR

Initially set up all available devices by enabling alert monitor and setting Hart Polling rates at 24 hours to begin collection of data. This validates device communication and provides data for Alert Tuning.

TASK 6: LOAD THE APPROPRIATE SNAP-ON™ APPLICATIONS

Load SNAP-ON applications for AMS Device Manager if available. Review SNAP-ON functionality as appropriate. NOTE: Some SNAP-ON applications require a separate INSTALL due to the level of effort for its database setup, such as AMS ValveLink®.

TASK 7: REVIEW BASIC SOFTWARE FUNCTIONS AND NAVIGATION

Explain device templates, user configurations, and future device additions. Use device connection view, explorer view, and other windowed views. Cover database utilities over approximately 2 hour review.

TASK 8: REVIEW FORMAL TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES

Identify next potential formal training class time and location. Confirm class availability and sign-up requirements.

TASK 9: BACK UP THE DATABASE

Back up database to a safe location at end of the session. Explain import/export and sharing of date. Communicate how to import ValveLink® data and advanced valve diagnostic capabilities.

CUSTOMER REQUIREMENTS:

• Asset listing in electronic format from CMMS available prior to visit.

• AMS Device Manager Software shall be available or is already loaded/installed on Pentium II or better computer.

• It is not necessary to have software under current support agreement to execute INSTALL.

• Full access to all equipment, drawings, documentation, manuals, and procedures, upon request.

• It is practical to limit the 2-hour informal review session of software to only one or two people.

DELIVERABLES:

• Properly installed software and downloadable programs

• Database setup with all online tags. Offline tags require physical retrieval of device configuration (separate work scope).

• 2 hours of training
