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.

Remote Alarm Manager - RAM Engine will not start or shuts down during normal operation.

Issue The Remote Alarm Manager shuts down during use, or cannot be restarted. Environment Sigma BAS 2800+ Vista Micronet Remote Alarm Manager RAM Cause The Log.mdb file becomes too large, and uses excessive memory, this can cause the RAM Engine to shut down. Resolution The Log.mdb can record all system alarms, user actions and the actions that RAM is taking. This file will increase in size and has no restrictions on how big it can get. How fast it increases in size will depend on the logging requirements set in the configuration. This file needs to be managed, and this is achieved as follows: 1 - If the system is running without any problems, then this file should be deleted or renamed on a regular basis. To do this stop the RAM services and locate the Log.mdb record (For Sigma it is most likely located in Sigma\Data\Remote Alarm Manager), and delete / rename it. Restarting the RAM services will recreate a new file. 2 - Ensure that all logging is set to its most infrequent setting. The above screen shot shows the "Debugging" screen for the "GSM Modem" interface. In this instance, logging has been set to "Nothing", but there are four other options. 1 - Errors - Only errors are logged. 2 - Normal - Only low level information is recorded,. 3 - Detailed - More in depth information is stored. 4 - Verbose - All information is logged. If RAM is operating correctly, then choosing either Nothing or Errors, would be appropriate.

Support route for Smart Connector Framework issues

Issue Users or engineers may be unsure of how to access the best support for issues with Smart Connectors, especially where site specific Smart Connectors have been developed, or believe the issue is with the underlying framework. Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation Environment SBO/EBO and general integration projects Cause Unlike SBO/EBO, which is a standard EcoBuilding product that falls under normal technical support, the Smart Connector (formerly known as Mongoose) was developed by Schneider Electric Buildings Labs. As such the necessary level of specific Smart Connector expertise is not found within the technical support teams Resolution If using a Smart Connector developed specifically for a project created by a separate Integration Team within Schneider EcoBuilding, then it is always best to go back to that team with your technical issues. In all other cases, the best place to raise any questions would be on the SmartConnector Developer Forum: Here, questions can be raised and speak directly to the Software Developers who originally created the Smart Connector Framework.

Manually Adding Xenta device with Group bindings in Lonmaker

Issue Can I add the group bindings manually as the option to create group binding in the System Plug-in takes time and controllers are taken offline for the period of the process Environment Lonmaker Vista Cause This is  possible to do and works very well and effectively if you understand the process  Resolution Follow these steps to add TAG 0 system bindings and TAG 1 Xenta bindings to your new Xenta controller. In Lonmaker find the source of the TAG 0 binding buy finding any TAG 0 existing binding. Then right mouse click on the tag number and select Go to reference. This will take you to the source of the TAG 0 bindings. If a list of controllers appear then you are already at the source controller. Then Carry out a connection as normal in Lonmaker on that function block. Right click on the Virtual function block with the TAG 0 source and select the connect option. Select the TAG 0 option under the Hub tab then select the target tab and add the new Xenta controller to the system with the Add FB/SNs button. Then select the TAG 0 in the virtual function block of the new Xenta and click on the Add button. The select the OK button. This will add the TAG0 binding to the new Xenta device with the correct binding type. The next step is similar to the TAG 0 but for the TAG 1. You need to locate the TAG 1 Xenta group that you are adding the new Xenta controller into. Once you have located the TAG1 source use the same connection method as TAG0 but use the TAG1 in the virtual blocks. The final step is to download the added controller and the group master.

MS/TP and Modbus RS485 Communications on StruxureWare Automation Server

Issue Both BACnet MS/TP and Modbus typically provide a robust and reliable communications channel allowing the Automation Server to effectively manage a large collection of equipment over extended distances. When the system does not come up operating as expected due to the communications integrity, considerable effort can be consumed troubleshooting or working-around the fault observations. Product Line Andover Continuum, EcoStruxure Building Operation, Field Devices, Other, TAC IA Series Environment Automation Server with BACnet MS/TP or Modbus RS485 networks connected to Port A or Port B. Cause The configuration of the RS485 network can create conditions that reduce the tolerance for EMI noise on the bus, electrical ground differences, transmission signal loss through the cable and/or component performance.

Enter data in ID Works and print a badge

Issue What is the proper way to enter data in ID Works and print a badge? Product Line OTHER, TAC INET Environment ID Works I/NET Seven Cause Enter data properly to avoid losing data or having to redo personnel entry. Resolution Log into the ID Works Program Default user name is lowercase admin Default password is lowercase admin Choose the badge project for the card you are going to print. If you do not see the Project in the window area, select the "More Projects" button to see the complete list of projects. Once you choose the project, a window will pop up for you to log into the ID Works Project. You have a choice on how to log in. You can either choose to check the box next to "Use Trusted Connection" or under the "INetThirdParty" Login ID the password is lower case passinetdb3p. Typically, select the “Trusted Connection” option. This is a view of the Sample project that is on the I/NET Seven CD under the "Support" file folder on the CD. Next fill in all the information listed on the Production Form including taking the photo. Now that you have filled in all the info and took the picture, it is time to print the badge. On the Bottom ICON Task Bar, the second ICON in going from left to right is the "Print ICON." Before you actually print the badge, make sure the Blank cards that are in the printer magazine are the correct ones. Once you verify that the correct blanks are in the printer, and then depress the Printer ICON with the mouse. Printing the badge will also save the information in the I/NET Seven system and the ID Works system. There is NO need to save the info first, and then print the badge. Now that you still have the information in the Production Form on the Screen, DO NOT choose the RED X on the Top ICON Task Bar to clear the page. If by accident you do choose the RED X, you will get the following pop up window. DO NOT CHOOSE the YES BUTTON, if you do, you WILL DELETE ALL THE INFORMATION AND PHOTO you just entered in the I/NET Seven System and the ID Works system. If you find yourself in this situation, you NEED TO CHOOSE the NO BUTTON, doing this choice WILL NOT DESTROY ANY DATA. In order to refresh the project, go to the Top Task Bar and choose the "FILE" option. In the drop down list choose the "Close Project" option. Then select a new Project for the next badge, this process will open a new clean Production Form to fill out.

Inovonics Wireless Interface problem

Issue Inovonics Wireless Interface problem Environment FA7403 Cause Inovonics provides an interface to access wireless temperature sensors. The FA7403 receiver can be used to interface with Xenta equipment or Continuum equipment, however these interfaces use different protocols. Resolution The Xenta equipment requires a hexadecimal protocol which corresponds to the FA7403 receiver. The Continuum equipment requires an ASCII protocol which corresponds to the FA7403-ASC receiver. If you have the wrong receiver for the equipment you are trying to interface with then contact the Product Support Group for steps to reconfigure this device.

Product Line Other, TAC INET Environment I/NET Seven BioScrypt V-PASS (MV1200) Cause Assistance with configuring the BioScrypt V-PASS reader with I/NET Seven Access Control. Resolution Biometric Reader Setup Using the Bioscrypt V-pass-2 Reader The reader is: Bioscrypt V-Pass FingerPrint Reader VPASS-2 Note: The Programming software to load fingerprints on the PC comes with the reader. For the actual wiring and programming of this reader see the linked "BioScryptSetup.PDF" BioScript Setup Wiring (pigtail) Wiegand 1 - Wiegand Out Data 0 3 - Wiegand Out Data 1 6 - Wiegand GND Power using separate 24V DC Power Supply 11 - Pwr GND 13 - Pwr IN 15 - Earth Ground BioScrypt V-Pass Reader Wiegand Setup Install BioScrypt Software (VeriAdmin) on PC and setup to communicate with reader. Go to Configure > Unit Parameters Click on Wiegand Tab Check Predefined Format Pick "Standard 26 bit" Under On Success Check Alt Site Code & Enter Arbitrary Value (usually 3 digits) RECORD VALUE this is the Site Code Under Wiegand I/O Check Enable Input Check Enable Output Select Always Output (regardless of Input Source) Enroll Individual in VeriAdmin Enroll Individual RECORD ID – this is Individual Number NOTES: The index number is to assigned to ID number to record each individual finger (0-9 is for all 10 fingerprints). I/NET will only be sent the ID number in the Wiegand String. Schedule does not matter. You have selected Always Output (regardless of Input Source). One will do all the door scheduling in I/NET. Enroll Individual in I/NET Create new Tenant called “BioReaders” If site is using Wiegand Card and NOT Large Numbers (Dipswitch 7 OFF) Enter Site Code (recorded from above) as the Tenant ID When enrolling the individual in the new tenant, use the ID recorded from above as the Individual Number and Decimal Card Number.   If site is using Wiegand Cards and Large Numbers (Dipswitch 7 ON) or if using Idiscs (set Dipswitch 7 ON for only DPUs with BioScrypt, even if they have Idisc also) Leave default Tenant Code. Use 26BHEXCAL.xls and enter Site Code and Individual ID recorded from above and it will generate the HEX Card Number. When enrolling the individual, enter the Hex Card Number as generated. I/NET Door Configuration Make sure door is setup as Wiegand 26 Configuration as Implemented DPU 7920 Door 08 was setup as BioScrypt V-Pass MV1200 Door 09 was setup for Idisc Door Lock was wired to both relays in series (so both had to be energized to unlock the door). Door 08 (BioScrypt) was given a schedule of 24/7 and assigned to all individuals in new tenant. Door 09 (Idisc) had the original schedule assigned to site personnel. This schedule is the one that will deny access according to schedule. Other Configurations This can be used as a single reader for the door (with schedules in I/NET) or as implemented above with any combination of reader compatible with I/NET.

LMGRD "crashing" upon restarting the PC

Issue Every time the computer reboots, LMGRD errors are shown at startup.   LMGRD encountered a problem and needed to close. lmgrd.exe - Application Error The instruction at "0x0012e854" referenced memory at "0xffffff91". The memory could not be "written". Product Line Other, Satchwell MicroNet, Satchwell Sigma, TAC Vista Environment Vista Server 5.0 FlexNet Licensing Remote Alarm Manager Sigma BAS2800+ Micronet Errors Cause There is a known issue with the new license server from Flexnet. The LMGRD.exe is actually crashing during shut down of the PC. Resolution This is nothing dangerous. What happens is that when you turn off the PC, something is happening with the license server during the shutdown phase. Since LMGRD runs as service, it can not display this error message during this shut down. The error message is shown the next time the PC is started. It will not affect anything since the error messages is queued from the last shutdown sequence, NOT during the startup. We think it has something to do with having a license server installed and not using only an entitlement license. In some situations, placing a customer license file from any project into the license folder along with the monthly demo license stops the LMGRD error. The license server may read the customer license, note that it is invalid, then use the monthly license. Flexnet is looking into this issue. Look for a fix in upcoming versions. On Sigma, BAS2800+, and Micronet systems where Remote Alarm Manager is installed, the TAC license server can be uninstalled as it is not used.
