Issue Printer Use with Emergin Software Emergin Software worked fine until I/NET 2000 was upgraded to I/NET Seven. Now the printer starts to print the Events and Alarms vertically instead of horizontally. Environment Emergin Software I/NET Seven upgraded from I/NET 2000 Cause Upgrade process requires that the COM port be added back again following the upgrade. Resolution Remove the COM Port from the Device Manager Reboot the PC so that it rediscovers it or re-adds it back again Restart I/NET Generate an Alarm and verify that it works correctly. If for some reason this does not work: Verify that you have the latest Emergin Build that is compatible with I/NET Seven, then try it again. You would have to go to the Emergin Website to get this information at www.emergin.com.

Issue Some helpful basic IP commands. Product Line Other Environment Computer with IP NIC or Network Cause Need for basic IP configuration or IP address Resolution Go to start, click run and type in "cmd". This takes you to the command prompt. Type in: "ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" to see if your device is online and its response time. Make sure you put the space between "ping" and "xxx". "ipconfig" and hit enter to get the info of the computer you are currently using. You'll get the IP address, subnet mask and the gateway. "ipconfig/all" and hit enter to get more info on the machine your using. It will give you all the above and then some including the DNS server addresses. "tracert xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" and hit enter and you can see the servers that you are going through to get to your destination. This can be used when connecting to a Loytec or a iLon and the IP address is being presented to the L-IP or iLon is unknown. Connecting through a firewall/gateway/NAT server, you are not presenting the PC's address - when you do the tracert you will go through your gateway and the next address will be the IP you are presenting- Use this in the iLon as the LNS server address.

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.

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.

Issue Modbus slaves are programmed according to device documentation, but either the wrong values are returned or error codes complaining about invalid address. Environment Xenta 913, Xenta 731, Xenta 511:B Cause The XBuilder Device Editor has two ways to address modbus registers. The improper usage of these methods can cause communication problems because the wrong register is polled. 1. Fixed Address Blocks This method combines the function code and register address to produce a single number format that serves multiple function codes. This is sometimes referred to as numerical notation. A poll of a holding register uses function 03 and an address from 00 00 to FF FF. When using Fixed Address Blocks a message of function code 03 and address 00 00 is displayed as 40001. Due to this combination it is limited to 9,999 addresses per function code. Type Function Code  Address  Coil Status  01  00001-9999  Input Status  02  10001-19999  Holding Register  03  40001-49999  Input Register  04  30001-39999 When the device editor is using Fixed Address Blocks then the numerical number is parsed from the Register in the following way. Register Function Code Address 1-9999 01 Register - 1 10001-19999 02 Register - 10001 30001-39999 04 Register - 30001 40001-49999 03 Register - 40001 2. Function Code Tables (Discrete Input, Coil, Input Register, Holding Register) This addressing format is closer to the actual protocol and keeps the function code separate from the register address. It also provides full use of the addresses from 0 to 65535. Table Function Code Discrete Input 02 Coil 01 Input Register 04 Holding Register 03   If the wrong format is used it can result in failure to communicate because the wrong register is used. For example polling register address 40010 on function code 03 when it should have been address 9 on function code 03. Resolution The documentation of the product being interfaced with is the best guide on the register addressing and the format they use. If the documentation does not directly specify the information then use the follow hints to guide your selection: Hints to use Function Code Tables Addresses that fall on zero (0, 10000, 30000, or 40001) Non binary data that is less then 30001 or greater then 40001. Devices states it is J-Bus. Register address is displayed in Hexadecimal format. Hints to use Fixed Address Blocks Any address register above 30000 or 40000, unless it claims to be a JBus device. If it is still unclear which addressing format to use then experiment with read only data and value pages in the Xenta Servers. Pick a point that you can easily confirm the value, add both address formats to a device template, and then confirm the proper format with a values page. Once you know how to read one point the rest of the product documentation is easier to work with.

Issue Error when running the Checklic license utility: "InitCrypkey Error -103: NETWORK: REPLY FROM NETWORK DRIVER IS BAD" "InitCrypkey Error -102: NETWORK: NETWORK DRIVER APPEARS TO NOT BE SERVING THIS DIRECTORY" Product Line Other, TAC Vista Environment LNS 3.0 LNS Turbo Edition (Ver 3.2) LonMaker 3.0 LonMaker 3.1 LonMaker Turbo (Ver 3.2) Vista Cause A problem has occurred with the LonMaker licensing. Resolution There are two procedures for fixing this problem. Try Procedure 1 first, and if the license still has the same problem, try Procedure 2. Internet access may be required for Procedure 2 to in order to download the setupex.exe and cks.exe programs and request a replacement license. Procedure 1: Confirm that the Windows Crypkey License service is started. To confirm, click Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services. Verify the Crypkey License status is Started. Also verify that the startup type is Automatic. If not, right-click the name and then click Start. Double-click the name to enter the properties dialog and change the startup type to Automatic. Close the Service window.   Confirm the Crypkey NetworkX driver is started by running C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSInfo\Msinfo32.exe. Expand System Summary > Software Environment > System Drivers in the category tree in the left pane, then locate NetworkX in the right pane. Confirm that the State is Running and the Status is OK. Close the System Information window. If you cannot find these software components, uninstall the Echelon Software product, reboot, and reinstall the product. Antivirus and Internet security software can interfere with the proper installation of the software. Disable such software before you re-install the Echelon software product. At this point, if you are still unable to run your LonMaker or LNS application because of a License Access error message and if the Checklic license utility still reports a -102 or -103 error, follow the steps in Procedure 2. Procedure 2: Check to see if two files exist in the C:\Windows\LNS Licenses folder. setupex.exe cks.exe The LNS Licenses folder is hidden; if you do not see it, open the Windows Explorer Tools menu, click Folder Options, and in the View tab, select Show Hidden Files and Folders and clear Hide Protected Operating System Files (Recommended). If you don't see these files, download them from Echelon and extract them to the C:\Windows\LNS Licenses folder. Open a Windows command prompt by clicking Start > Run and typing in cmd (or command for Windows 98). Type the following command to change your working directory: cd "\Windows\LNS Licenses" Type the following command: setupex /U Reboot the computer. Repeat steps 3 and 4, and then type the following command: setupex Reboot the computer. Open a Windows command prompt and enter "checklic lonmaker.vsl" for the LonMaker Tool or "checklic nsseng.exe" for other LNS tools and applications. If no errors appear, then the LNS application should start. Exit now. If the GetAuthorization Error -4/GetAuthorization Error -1 error is shown, which is expected, try opening/creating network. If the -4/-1 error remains, use the license wizard to request replacement credits. If the InitCrypkey Error -102/-103 error is shown, delete the following files under C:\Windows\LNS Licenses (do not delete other files from the LNS Licenses folder): For the LonMaker tool: LonMaker.rst LonMaker.ent LonMaker.key LonMaker.41s For an LNS tool or application other than the LonMaker tool: nsseng.rst nsseng.ent nsseng.key nsseng.41s Delete esnecil.ind in the C:\windows\system32 folder. Reboot the computer. Run the Checklic license utility again. If the GetAuthorization Error -4/GetAuthorization Error -1 error is shown, which is expected, try opening or creating a network. If the -4/-1 error remains, use the license wizard to request replacement credits. Once the license is fixed, download and install the LNS Licensing Update 2006.

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.
