The device is applicationless, or is not associated with a program record. (Subsystem: NS, #5)

Issue The device is applicationless, or is not associated with a program record. (Subsystem:  NS, #5) The target device does not have a valid application loaded. To correct this problem, right-click on the device and select the "Load" option. Then, if necessary, repeat this operation. The device was discovered to be applicationless, or not associated with a program. If you encounter this error, load the application into the device. For host-based nodes, ensure that the host application is running Product Line Other, TAC Vista Environment LNS LonMaker Vista NL220 Cause Interrupting a download can cause the download to fail and render the controller applicationless.  Also, a corrupt Menta file can sometimes successfully download, but cause the controller to go into an applicationless state. Resolution An application must be downloaded through Menta while directly connected to the controller through the RS-232 serial port.  A blank Menta file with just one PVR is sufficient to restore an application to the controller and allow it to be downloaded; however, downloading the actual Menta file is better because it can expose parsing errors in the Menta file that need to be fixed before downloading it through the System Plug-in again. In some cases, an attempt to direct download can not establish communications to the controller and "timeout". In this event, download a new .mot file to the system using the Download Wizard. Instructions are located in Instructions on how to download an .MOT file into a Xenta Programmable controller. If the Download Wizard  is not able to establish communications with the device, the program should first be cleared using a Xenta Hardware Reset Tool. You can make one by following the instructions located in Xenta Controller Will Not Download / How to Clear the Xenta Application. If the Xenta firmware is older than 3.61, the method to clear the Xenta application is to power cycle the controller 10 consecutive times.

Bacnet 3rd party controller will not respond to Find New Bacnet Devices (Who-Is/I-Am)

Issue Bacnet 3rd party controller will not respond to Find New Bacnet Devices (Who-Is/I-Am), so will not come online to Continuum Environment Bacnet MSTP Continuum Cause Some 3rd party bacnet devices can be setup as master or slave. If the bacnet 3rd party bacnet device is setup as a slave device, it will not respond to the mstp token, therefore will not respond to the Who-Is broadcast and will not be able to communicate on the mstp network. The BACnet MS/TP protocol does not allow a slave only device to respond to a "Who-Is" broadcast. Resolution Check 3rd party device documentation or contact 3rd party device vendor for Master/Slave settings and configure for Master to communicate on a MSTP network. Slave only devices cannot come online and will require a 3rd party interface to convert to a protocol that can be directly supported by Continuum.   Examples of BACnet MSTP Slaves that are known not to respond to a Continuum Who-Is request and so not come online are: - The Babel Buster 485XM from Control Solutions Inc is BTL listed as a BACnet Slave device , their PICs statement can be seen Here. - Wilo pumps Interface Modules: IF-Modul BACnet & IF-Modul Stratos BACnet, their PICs statement can be seen Here. Additional Note In SmartStruxure a "slave only" MSTP device can ba manually created.

Time and Attendance functionality in I/NET Seven

Issue Does I/NET Seven provide Time and Attendance functionality Environment I/NET Seven 2.xx and above Third Party Time and Attendance solution Cause Possible alternatives to Customers wanting to use or interface Time and Attendance solutions with I/NET. Resolution I/NET does not have a separate Time and Attendance ‘module’. There are three possible options which may provide a suitable alternative to your requirements: SevenReports: I/NET’s SevenReports provides a standard report called “Transactions Attendance”.  The report compares the time stamp for an individual and calculates the time within zones defined in I/NET.  I/NET doors must be configured with entry and exit readers and have defined Zones (i.e. Anti-pass back must be enabled).  It could be as simple as a single zone for the entire site or multiple zones if this is required. This report shows EACH transaction received, therefore if you badge multiple times on the entry or exit readers the system calculates the time difference from the last badge. This must be taken into account by any system when calculating the total time within the “Zone”. Automatic Report Generation (Export of SevenReports to CSV): Using the same report as mentioned above, I/NET is capable of automatically exporting this document to a CSV file. This can be scheduled to run as required for any third party system to use. Third Party Access to InetDb SQL database This option allows third party SQL connections to query the I/NET SQL Database (Read only access), utilizing a predefined login or the INetThirdParty login.  The third party software or application would query data from the InetDb SQL database. For further information and configuration of these features are all available in the same document, TCON301 – Database Connectivity and Reporting.

SHD100 / SHD101 - Humidity Sensors can give a DC voltage signal of greater than 10 Volts.

Issue When using the above sensors in conjunction with a BAS or Sigma building management system, out of range values can occur. Environment BAS 2800+ Outstation Sigma Controller 0-10 volts Cause If is possible for the sensor to provide greater than the specified 10 Volts DC output, and this causes the Outstation / Controller to display a default value. Resolution To resolve this issue carry out the following; 1 - Connect a 10K ohm 0.1% resistor in series with the 0 – 10 volt signal as shown in the drawing below. 2 - Create a lookup table in Sigma or BAS 2800+ with the following values. Input                        Output 0                    –        0 83.335           –        100.000 100.000         –        100.000 3 - Allocate this table to the analogue input object, and download the (Point / Object) and table, to the (Outstation / Controller). The above configuration will allow the DC voltage to rise to 11.335 Volts before an out of range alarm would be generated.

Select Option 1 to Show device information  This menu item shows information about the L-IP and the current firmware version. The output should look like what is shown in Figure 2. Product information =================== Product code: L-IP-3ECT Firmware: L-IP Primary image Version: 5.0.5 Build date: Fri Mar 18 10:41:29 2005 Serial number: 002304-80000000E73C Free memory: 557K,57K System temp: 33.3C Supply volt: 12.0V Unique Node IDs =============== Port 1: 80 00 00 00 E7 3C EIA852: 80 00 00 00 F7 92 Figure 2: Device information. (For UL 864 v9: If the Firmware Version does not reflect a Version 5.0.4 or Version 5.0.5, you must update the firmware to an approved version in the next steps. If the L-IP contains an approved version, further action is not required.) L-IP Firmware Upgrade To download the firmware via the console connected the L-IP to the RS-232 port of a PC via its console interface as outlined above. Download the lswitch_lipxxx.zip located at www.loytec.com to the PC. Install the LOYTEC serial upgrade tool (LSU Tool) by double clicking LSU_2_0_1setup.exe. Double click on the lswitch_lip_xxx.dlc file. This will start the LSU Tool and load the firmware image referenced in the . lswitch_lip_xxx.dlc file. The start window of the LSU tool is shown in Figure 3. *note that the lswitch_lip_xxx.dlc file and the lswitch_lip_xxx.dl file must be stored in the same folder. Figure 3: LSU Serial Upgrade Tool in idle mode. If the L-IP is not connected to COM1 you can change the port to COM1, 2, 3, or 4. Press “Download” to start the download. A progress bar as shown in Figure 4 can be seen. Figure 4: Progress bar during firmware download. If the upgrade is successful the following window appears (Figure 5). Figure 5: Successful firmware upgrade. Exit the LSU Tool. Reconnect through HyperTerminal connection and  initiate the console by a “enter” keystroke or power cycle of the L-IP. At the console main menu, select option [1] Show device information, and press Enter.

Sigma - The IC3-SNP Integration Controller does not display negative values correctly.

Issue Negative values presented to an IC3-SNP Integration Controller are displayed starting at 65535. Environment Sigma Integration Controllers IAC Controllers Unifact Controllers Cause The IC3-SNP Integration Controller calculates the negative value incorrectly. Resolution To overcome this issue it will be necessary to create a new Lookup table and to allocate it to the IC3-SNP Analogue Input object. 1 - In Sigma "System Manager" select "System Setup" and create a new lookup table, using the configuration shown below. 2 - Edit the Analogue Input object to include the new Lookup Table number, select to download the object. 3 - In Sigma "System Diagnostics" download the Lookup Table to the IC3-SNP. 4 - The lookup table shown above assumes that the value being presented is in whole numbers, i.e. a received value of 1 equals 1, but there are instances when the value received may have a *10 factor applied. In this case the lookup table is modified as shown below. Input         Output 0               0 32767       3276.7 32768      -3276.8 65535      -0.1

Converting 0 - 20 mA into a 0 - 10 Volt DC signal.

Issue  To convert a 0 - 20 mA signal into an acceptable form to be used into a variety of controller types. Environment Sigma BAS Micronet X96 controllers X32 controllers IAC controllers Micronet controllers Cause Some controllers will not accept a 0 - 20 mA signals and therefore the signal must be converted. Resolution To achieve this conversion, please follow the instructions below. Install a 500 ohm 0.1% resistor in series with the 0 - 20mA signal. From across the resistor, take the signal to the controller . The Universal Input or Analogue Input should be set as a standard voltage input.

Cisco switches reporting connected Sigma devices using more than one MAC Address.

Issue Cisco switches reporting connected Sigma devices using more than one MAC Address which appear to be transmitted from the Sigma device connected to the port.  The error alarm reported "%PORT_SECURITY-2-PSECURE_VIOLATION: Security violation occurred, caused by MAC address 0050.b401.1e46 on port FastEthernet1/0/35" Environment All ARM7 Sigma Ethernet devices Cisco Catalyst 3550 Series Switches Cisco Catalyst 3560 Series Switches Cisco Catalyst 3560-E Series Switches Cisco Catalyst 3750-E Series Switches   Cause Sigma controllers broadcasting high number of Sigma globals (typically 40 per second). Upgrading BAS2800+ systems to Sigma can result in higher levels of Sigma global data than seen previously. Cisco switch set to 10Mb half duplex which mistakes the source MAC address of the Sigma global from a controller on one port with that of a controller on another port. Cisco switch has Layer 2 Security feature enabled, see Click Here High collision rates may also be seen at the switch. Resolution Identify those Sigma objects that are broadcasting global data at high rates and suppress the rate of change of the Sigma object. This can be achieved by: Running Wire Shark Ethernet trace program to record the Sigma broadcast Ethernet packs per Ethernet sub-LAN. Email each of the saved capture files (per LAN) to your local product support for a global analysis report. If possible then increase the connection speed of the Cisco ports. New firmware for the ARM processors has been created to addresses the issue. You can find the firmware and release note on the Exchange
