Overview
Platforms sold by Honeywell are engineered for the process control mission of Experion and TPS
systems to provide consistent and robust performance. Through an extensive qualification process,
Honeywell defines specific peripheral devices, slot locations, and BIOS settings for best performance
and reliability, sometimes even adding cooling fans for longer service. Honeywell platforms are then
built to Honeywell specifications by the computer manufacturer.
Honeywell engineering has tested the Dell PowerEdge T320 server with other Honeywell hardware
and software and has qualified its use for specific configuration items as identified in the Software
Change Notice (SCN). The server is not a standard Dell model and cannot be ordered independently
from Dell. The Technical Assistance Center (TAC) is well trained and supports Honeywell platforms.
Use of any other server including a similar Dell model, is considered a project special and its TAC
support is limited according to the services policy.
The Dell PowerEdge T320 server are shipped with the following Tab numbers. The CPU and memory
configurations varies for each Tab number.
Dell PowerEdge T320 Standard (Tab 100)

Dell PowerEdge T320 Standard RAID (Tab 200)

The Honeywell-based Dell PowerEdge T320 server provides the functionality of a server-based PC
running the Microsoft Windows server operating systems.
The release of this server is based upon RAID-5 and dual power supply design to provide computer-
based functionality for certain Experion systems and the TPS systems.
