Web-Based Services Offer Additional Flexibility

In addition to our traditional SureService support modules, Emerson offers a program of web-based support modules. Virtual Private Network (VPN) services and online meeting tools leverage the full power of Internet technology to streamline and optimize control system maintenance and operations. Using encrypted, password-protected software and additional security measures, our SureService experts can perform a variety of services remotely, including system troubleshooting, software archiving, and online tutoring—all without compromising the security or integrity of your control system. Implementation of web-based services requires installation of a dedicated SureService Station on your DCS network, a VPN connection, and online meeting tools.

Although SureService modules are priced à la carte, maximum savings can be achieved by bundling multiple modules together. In addition, multiple-year contracts offer additional discounts.

To ensure thorough, targeted support, many of our SureService modules are designed to work together. For example, our Expert Telephone Support and Remote System Diagnostics modules are often bundled into a single contract to ensure that problems are diagnosed and resolved as quickly, accurately, and cost-effectively as possible.

SureService Expert Support programs provide unlimited technical support, 24 hours a day, seven days a week via Emerson’s telephone support line and on-line Internet information access site.

Remote System Diagnostics

Excellent for situations when standard telephone troubleshooting procedures cannot adequately diagnose and correct a problem, Remote System Diagnostics allows SureService experts, working in conjunction with you, to connect directly to your control system for a live view of system conditions. SureService provides three options for Remote System Diagnostics: Web-based VPN, online meeting, and modem connection.

Software Update Program

Keep your system current by incorporating the newest releases of Ovation software updates and third-party patches.
