3.1.1

Bi-directional Configuration Replication
System 1 v23.2 now supports Bi-directional replication of configuration changes. Users need toenable Bi-directional replication on the Tx and the associated Rx database. Bi-directional replication
replicates only the configuration changes from Rx to Tx and vice versa. Data and events are notreplicated from Rx to Tx. To perform Bi-directional replication, System 1 and database versions on Tx
and Rx must be 23.2 or later.

Figure 3.1-1

The General section of the Database Replication tab in Database Manager has been

updated to include two data locations and the ability to configure Configuration Type.
Users can perform most of the configuration operations from the Rx database, except a few
which are restricted. The following configuration operations are restricted from the Rx:o

Add and delete assets and devices.

Decision Support rules can only be deployed to the Rx and from the Rx
database.

To make edits on either Rx or Tx database, a request needs to be sent using the new lockcontext menu in order to put the database in edit mode. The new lock context menu isavailable only for Bi-directional databases. The lock icon provides a context menu with thesethree options: Allow Configuration Edits, Allow Display Edits, and Lock/Unlock Configuration.
The context menu also shows configuration and display mode statuses: Edit Mode or Readonly, at the bottom.
Database must be in Configuration edit mode to make changes to the Configure workspaceand Display edit mode to make changes to the Display workspace. After the database
enters the Configuration edit mode, the Lock/Unlock Configuration functionality works thesame as previous release.

3.1.2 HMI & Performance Map Replication
System 1 v23.2 allows users to replicate HMI diagrams and performance map configurations.
This is supported for both Uni-directional and Bi-directional replication. To replicate display
changes, select the Include Display Changes check box under Replication Settings on the Tx
database. This option replicates all changes made to HMI diagrams and performancemaps.

3.3.1 Data Loss Notification
If System 1 does not historize or receive data from a device or a group of devices, it notifies the users
through an email, if email notifications have already been configured. This helps users to takecorrective actions and prevent data loss. System 1 performs checks at fixed time intervals anddetermines if Postgres is storing data for all the enabled devices. If not, then it checks if the data is
being received from the device. Based on the investigation, System 1 logs a severity 3 event, either
Data not stored or Data not received . Also, in the Database Manager, the Overall Database Healthcolumn displays the following message, Data is not being historized for some enabled devices .
The email notification includes detailed information about the event.

Figure 3.3-1 System Health Notification for Data Loss

3.3.2 Auto Suppress Noise Events
When a particular event is logged several times in a short period of time, a large number of
event occurrences, also known as noise events, are displayed on System 1 event list. Criticalevents may be overlooked due to these large number of noise events and at times cause
performance issues. The Auto Suppression feature suppresses these noise events
automatically. When an event enters, exits, and then re-enters within a time span of one
minute, System 1 automatically suppresses the event and logs an entry under the
Suppressed tab. When the event remains stable in a particular state (cleared or active) forat least a minute, the auto-suppression gets revoked. Manual suppression takes

3.4.1 Software nX vector measurement
System 1 version 23.2 supports software nX vector measurements for all devices. Users can add
software nX vector measurements through the Add Trended Variable dialog in the Configure
workspace. Each nX measurement needs to be associated with a synchronous waveform. nX
measurement provides amplitude and phase information of the configured order. System 1
calculates historical data samples for nX variables based on synchronous waveforms stored data.
The nX variable provides deeper insights that help diagnostic engineers to troubleshoot machineissues.

Speed channel waveform support in System 1
System 1 23.2 allows users to add Synchronous and Asynchronous waveforms under a speed
channel. The waveform is not added in the crash file mode in CMM by default. However, when thedevice is added in System 1, depending on the CMM utilization, user can add waveform under thechannel. Looking at the speed waveform in System 1 helps to identify shaft imperfections andinstallation issues. The user can set Threshold and Hysteresis values for the speed channel byreferring to its waveform.

4.1.2 Integrated waveform configuration in System 1 for Orbit 60 channels
System 1 23.2 allows integration of acceleration and velocity waveforms by selecting the Integrate
checkbox. The configuration is sent to the CMM, which then returns the integrated waveform backto System 1.

4.1.3 Dynamic Pressure waveform support in System 1
System 1 23.2 allows users to configure Synchronous and Asynchronous waveforms under the
Dynamic Pressure channel. The configuration is sent to the CMM, which then returns the waveformback to System 1. Users can visualize the waveform in the Display > Plots workspace. Users can add
software trended variables by associating configured dynamic pressure waveforms.

4.1.4 Recip Impulse Acceleration Channel
System 1 23.2 allows users to view Recip Impulse Acceleration Channels configuration in the readonly mode. Presently, Direct and Bias measurements are added under Orbit 60 device protection
configuration. Users can map the Impulse acceleration channel to a reciprocating compressor
machine and view measurement data in machine train diagram and other plots.
