Display Builder manual (was Version 4.3 to 6.2.1 upgrade question )
This was interesting. Both HTML and .pdf files for this manual exist. They simply are not on the CD. I guess it is an oversight or perhaps they were late and the index was never updated. If you have access, the HTML file is on: http://tacsrv/shared/techwrite/foxdoc621/index.htm http://tacsrv/shared/techwrite/foxdoc621/index.htm I will send the .pdf file to Duc Do and see if he will post it. \\Fox-coc05-dev\TECHDOCS Regards, Alex Johnson 10707 Haddington Houston, TX 77043 713.722.2859 (office) 713.722.2700 (switchboard) 713.932.0222 (fax) [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Johnson, Alex [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, March 21, 2001 6:50 PM To: Foxboro DCS Mail List Subject:RE: Version 4.3 to 6.2.1 upgrade question Re: But while we're on this topic, why aren't the configurator documents on the CD? I don't know. I suspect that it was never converted to HTML. I believe that a .pdf file does exist, but I'll have to check. Re: Is the legacy DM/DBuilder being further enhanced, or is it frozen from a feature point of view (I assume bug fixes are still being incorporated)? There are no enhancements to the Display Builder or Display Configurator product in the offing. Basically, FV is the enhanced DM. In fact, certain internal documents refer to it as the DM. Bug fixes are corrected and the software is ported to each release. [I wonder what the last actual correction was. That would be interesting to know. One would assume that a piece of software that is 15 years old would not be generating a large number of defect reports (as opposed to enhancements).] Re: And what is Foxboro's official position on the longevity of legacy DM? Official positions come from Marketing, but I have heard high level company management say in public that we will support all of the I/A Series HW and SW as long as anyone needs them. It boils down to we like our customers and we want to keep them happy.

I guess I was referring to the configurator document the most when I was trying to get up to speed on building DM graphics.
