On the Communication Gateway to be upgraded, locate and save the following files (note: some may
not exist) to a secure location so that they can be copied back on to the Communication Gateway in a
later step:
⎯ Modbus_Client.csv
⎯ VNSA.CFG (if VNSA is running on this Communication Gateway)
⎯ VNOPCTags.txt
⎯ Any PGC5000 tag files for PGC5000s that will be left in the system running version 3; these
files will have the GC name and a .tag file extension.
If there are existing PGC5000s running software version 3.x.x.x in the system that will be running an
older version of the RUI, then the files and GCHelpfiles folder shown in Figure 8-5 will need to be
copied to a secure location and then copied back after the VistaNET Core software is uninstalled.
Figure 8-5: GCHelpfiles Folder
Next, uninstall the following applications:
⎯ VistaNET 2.0 OPC Applications
⎯ VistaNET
⎯ OPC Core Components Redistributable (x64)
These can be accessed from Control Panel/Programs/Uninstall a Program.
Restart the server as prompted during the uninstall process.
At this point, installation of the STAR Core software can be performed on the STAR Gateway according
to the STAR Data Management System (DMS) Operating Instructions.
Next, perform an installation of the STAR Gateway version 4 software by running the Setup.exe file on
the STAR Gateway media provided by ABB Customer Service.
Copy the files that were saved before the uninstall to the location where the STAR Core and STAR
Gateway products were installed. By default, this is C:\ABB\Analytics.
If there are existing PGC5000s in the system that will be running an older version of the RUI, then the
files and GCHelpfiles folder copied earler will need to be copied back to the folder that it was copied
from, usually Program Files\ABB\VistaNet 2.0.
