Operating System Support, System & OPC Server Requirements

  • Operating System
    • Windows Desktop: Windows 10 and 11 x64 versions
    • Windows Server 2016, 2019, 2022
  • .NET Framework 4.7.2 or higher
  • Memory:  memory usage for the FB3000 EFM Exporter application is negligible, therefore the system should have RAM to support the OS and other applications running.
  • Disk Space: will be user/application dependent. Files generated are small in size, however, there could be many files created over a large period of time. Recommendation is to monitor usage and execute backups and file purges to manage against available drive space.
  • OPC Server - TOP Server DNP Suite or KEPServer DNP Suite Version 6.14 or higher with license sufficient for the number of RTUs you plan to export from and configured to communicate to your RTUs. 

Device Compatibility

  • Emerson FB-3000 RTUs 
  • Minimum Firmware Version 02.15.00.95
