By 4:30 AM, the sensor was replaced. Jake recompiled the CFC (Continuous Function Chart) for just the affected area—no need to rebuild the entire plant—and downloaded it incrementally while the system ran. In the old days, that would have required a full stop and restart. With V9.1 SP2’s , the download was non-intrusive. Jake looked at the PCS 7 V9
In the modern landscape of cybersecurity threats, V9.1 SP2 elevates plant security. It includes:
