Specific ease of use features include:

 Automatic updates. Simulation I/O driver updates for the VIM2 are included with the MiMiC software

releases.

Updates are quick and easy over the simulation network.

 Seamless Ethernet I/O integration. When used with the MYNAH Ethernet I/O drivers,

the VIM2 is seen by the DeltaV M-series controller as four DeltaV Serial Cards.

Commissioned VIM2s are auto-sensed by the DeltaV controller as DeltaV Serial Cards.

 Configured in DeltaV Explorer. Serial dataset configuration used for Ethernet I/O integration

is done in the DeltaV Explorer in the same manner as a DeltaV Serial Card.

Ethernet I/O signals can be used in DeltaV Control Modules, displayed on 

DeltaV Operate graphics and stored in the DeltaV Continuous Historian.

 Intuitive setup. The VIMNet Explorer application provides plug-n-play capability making setup of the

VIM2 easy and intuitive. 

Graphical, drag-n-drop, functionality makes setting up multiple VIM2s almost effortless. 

VIMNet Explorer is integrated with DeltaV Explorer to make setup of the VIM2 easy and intuitive.

Modular, flexible packaging. The VIM2 mounts in the same manner as the DeltaV controller.

It mounts in the controller slot of a DeltaV 2-wide horizontal or 4-wide vertical carrier and uses a standard

DeltaV Power Supply.

The advanced design of the VIM2 will provide years of uninterrupted use.
