We have tried uploads with Foxwatch logged in monitoring processor and RAM
usage and we have tried it with API shutdown and traffic minimized as much
as possible.  Occassionally we may get one or two stations to upload but
never a complete upload.  We have 5 CP40 pairs (4 A's and 1 B), an AB
Station and two Modbus modules.  We have upgraded our RAM on our host AW to
256 MB and our hard drives to 9 GB based on Foxboro's recommendations, all
to no avail.  I assume Foxboro is still working on the problem.  We haven't
really heard from them since the hard drive upgrade a few weeks ago.
