19.1  Load Interactions for Fieldbus Related Operations 
Summary 
The following table provides a matrix of load interactions for given fieldbus related 
operations.  
 
 
ATTENTION 
If you make on-line changes to parameter values in fieldbus devices, the 
changed values are not written to the Monitoring or Project copy of the control 
strategy. You must initiate an "Upload" function to write 
the new values to 
Monitoring followed by an "Update to Project" function to write the 
Monitoring values to the Project copy.
