Issue
Adding a Xenta Server to a Vista System for I/NET to Vista Integration
Product Line
TAC INET, TAC Vista
Environment
- I/NET
- Vista
- Xenta 527
- I2V
Cause
For systems with both I/NET security and Vista HVAC, this allows for a single point to monitor alarms.
Resolution
At least one of the routers on the I/NET system must be a Xenta 527 Web Server.
- Start Vista Server
- Open Vista Workstation
- Right click on the Vista Server object and select New>Device>Xenta 527
- Name the Device
- Right Click on the Xenta Server Object and select Edit. XBuilder will open
If your 527 already has an XBuilder Project File
- Select Project>Get From Target
- Enter the IP address of the 527 and the root password
- Select Get the Full Project
- Click on the I/NET object and verify settings have imported
If your 527 does not already have an XBuilder Project File
- Click on the TAC_Xenta_527 root object in the Network Pane
- Add the TCP/IP and SMTP settings as required
- Click on the I/NET object
- Add the I/NET link information and reference hosts
- Right click on the I/NET object and select Insert TAC I/NET Network
- Click Add Files
- Add all save files for that link
- Click Ok
- Select Vista Database>Save
You will need to repeat this process for all I/NET links to have full I/NET integration into Vista.
