# Exchange Tool Engineering (R1.03)
Two tools convert another system's engineering data into CI Server engineering data
(a "publication" = generated quick load files plus `load.cmd`). Section numbers refer to the
manual; Appendix 1 lists the supported CENTUM VP function blocks.
## 1. CI Exchange for CENTUM VP (§2)
- Runs on an **RGS** (Remote Gateway Station: CI Server PC with a Vnet/IP card and driver from
the medium, `VirtualProduct_CIServer_packageRxxx.zip`, option *installVirtProd*) that talks
to CENTUM VP. *Single server*: the RGS is also the CI Core. *Non-single*: an upper CI Core
gets the data from the RGS (MDUR).
- Solutions: **RGS** (manual or automatic mode; automatic = the tool is embedded in the RGS,
ENG HIS equalisation enabled, the RGS registered in the CENTUM VP project; publications
generated after each CENTUM VP download) and **RGS with EAL** (external alarms; manual mode
only).
- Manual workflow: start the tool → create a project (*Single Server* ticked or not) → import
CENTUM VP engineering data from the ENG HIS (and MTL file) → *Publish* (name pattern, folder,
optional SQL tag filter such as `%PVI%`) → copy the publication folder to
`C:\Program Files (x86)\Yokogawa\CIServer\Utility` → run its `load.cmd` on the RGS and/or CI
Core (in an IT-security environment run `cmd.exe` *as different user* first). Automatic
publications land in `%TLS_ALLUSERS_PATH%\lst\rgs\pub\`.
- Output: items `<section>.<TAG>.<PARAM>` (e.g. `<Section>.FIC001.PV`), points
`<STATION>:[<item>]`, plus lines/stations, displays and symbols (displays only on the CI
Core in non-single configurations).
- Precautions (§2.15): refresh open LIST displays after a CENTUM VP online download; CI Server
does not allow alarm limits on the wrong side of SV; short data gaps after Vnet scan changes
or RDC switch-over; trends may lag after large downloads — reload displays, roll over the
history group, tune scan types.
- Installed: launcher `%TLS_ROOT_PATH%\tls\com\jwuiutl_ciexchange.cmd` (no RGS on the test
system).
## 2. CI Exchange for Prodigy (§3)
- For CCC Prodigy turbo-machinery controllers (antisurge, performance, speed). Input: the
Modbus register list (`.csv`, from MakerPro) per controller; the station name and IP are
entered in the tool.
- Install: copy `Windows\EngineeringTools\CIExchange_Prodigy.zip` from the medium, extract to
`C:\Program Files (x86)\Yokogawa\CIServer\Utility` (create the folder), run
`CIExchange_Prodigy.cmd`.
- Workflow: create project → import source configuration → generate publication → load it.
Output: items `<section>.<Prodigy variable path>`, Modbus points `<STATION>:[<item>]`, and
faceplates (title and engineering unit can be customised, §3.12.1).
