The SPI product has been enhanced to allow DeltaV definitions for I/O hardware objects, DeltaV terminology, and Foundation fieldbus device definitions to appear directly in SPI. The information that can be transferred spans both conventional I/O, including HART, and Fieldbus I/O systems. This interface allows for the seamless exchange of I/O card and instrumentation information between the DeltaV system and SmartPlant Instrumentation (SPI) databases. The DeltaV system has a bi-directional, file-mode transfer interface to SmartPlant Instrumentation (formerly know as INtools), jointly developed by Emerson Process Management and Intergraph, and based on Intergraph s SmartPlant Enterprise modular architecture. The DeltaV-SPI interface was designed to transfer data in either direction. However, during the plant operation stage, changes may be first entered into the automation system s database and this data can be used to configure SPI. During the project design stage, it is a common practice to take data from SPI to create the I/O and instrument data in the automation system. This interface allows for the seamless exchange of I/O card and instrumentation information between the two databases. Projects that use SPI in combination with the DeltaVTM ( digital automation system will benefit from the data exchange interface that has been developed.
