Honeywell Process End-of-Life / Migration Reference

Series-level lifecycle status taken from Honeywell Process Solutions' own public publications: the monthly System HINTS newsletters and Benefits Guardianship newsletters Honeywell posts on process.honeywell.com. It covers the coaxial TPN/LCN/UCN node families of the TPS / TDC era (EPLCG, EHB, ENIM, ETN, NG, ACE-T, EAPP, ES-T, ESV-T, AM, HPM, NIM, SBHM, SMM, FSC, DHEB, PCUS, UCNE, XLCNE — all Phased Out 31 December 2025), alarm and security software/services (ACM, PCN Monitoring), engineering tools and system software (ControlEdge Builder R170.x/R171.x, Experion PKS R501.x), QCS (Experion MX R704.x, MXProLine), the MLPLC BACnet modules (2MLL-BIPT / 2MLL-BIPT-CC), and seven Experion PKS computing platforms (MZ-PCST03, MZ-PCST04, MZ-PCSR04, MZ-PCSR05, MZ-PCSR06, MZ-PCIS02, MZ-PCTB02) transitioned to End of Sale. Honeywell's formal Product Support Guide requires a customer login; these newsletter announcements are its public, dated lifecycle record, and that is exactly what this file records.

Two records are time-critical and still in the future: ACM (Alarm Configuration Manager) enters Phased-Out Support on 31 December 2026 and loses all support on 31 December 2027 — Honeywell's stated aim is migration to Alarm Performance Optimizer (APO) by that date; and the PCN Monitoring service ceases operations at the end of 2027, with contract terms unable to extend beyond 31 December 2027. The coax era has already closed: all 19 coaxial node records are in Phased Out status as of 31 December 2025 (no new parts, commercially reasonable support effort only), with one deliberate exception — FSC Series 2 I/O is intended to be supported at least until 2035.

Honesty notes: All source PDFs (System HINTS March 2021, February 2019, May 2023, January, February and June 2026; Benefits Guardianship Q1 2026) were downloaded and text-extracted in full during verification — the March 2021, February 2019 and May 2023 reads arrived as late handoffs, and a same-night correction pass folded in the 10th already-Legacy coax node (XLCNE), the two Experion MX Traditional MD/CD records, and the corrected Experion PKS R501.x phase-out date (31 March 2023). Items seen only in third-party mirrors (TPS Builder, console furniture, workstation LTB tables) were deliberately excluded. Where Honeywell names no successor, the replacement cell says so — the computing-platform announcement lists new models without one-to-one pairing, and none is paired here.

Verification standard: official Honeywell sources only (process.honeywell.com System HINTS and Benefits Guardianship PDFs). Honeywell's other businesses (Productivity scanners/printers, Buildings, Sensing & Safety) were deliberately NOT used — this dataset is Honeywell Process (Experion / legacy DCS) only.
