Hi,
I have SG415 with SW version 1.2 with Operator station OS500 operating under Unix .
Can I replace these Operator station with 800xa system without changing the Sw version 1.2?
Thanks

Hi,

As mentioned in 3BSE085538, 3BNP100764 and some related issues, it is recommended to upgrade Sw version to 1.6/4 for reliable and better performance of SG controllers with 800xA system.

Regards,

Also Do I need to change the existing CS513 with CI574?

CI547 offers CPU load offloading, in practise the works seen by all CXNxxx (when running with CS513) tasks become 0 (zero) when shifting to CI547.

This can reduce CPU load significantly in dense configurations.

With SG the CPU load must be kept at a reasonable level.

High load increases the risk for shutdown due to MB300 overload. CI547 removes that risk.

Hi
One more comment with respect to SafeGuard 415 SW version:
It is utmost important that the SafeGuard 415 SW version is 1.6/2 or higher.
Reference: Document SPSR4001
Safeguard 400 Series 1.6, Version/Revision Description (1.6/4)
https://search-ext.abb.com/library/Download.aspx?DocumentID=SPSR4001&LanguageCode=en&DocumentPartId=&Action=Launch

7.3 Product Revision 1.6/2 (page 6(15))
Safety Tracker # 135. Functionality that protects against controller stall caused by
overload due to loss, malfunction or disconnection of connectivity server(s) is included.
Previous versions of Safeguard controllers could stall when disconnection or malfunction
of a connectivity server coincides with alarm burst or significant OPC subscription.
