Issue
Attempting to enter a conversion that references an object (point, PE function etc) results in error..
"Could not validate conversion formula"
Environment
Automation Server
BACnet interface
b3 device.
Cause
By design in SBO a point conversion can not contain references to other objects in the server.
Resolution
Remove the reference and substitute a hard coded value
EXAMPLE:
sqrt(elecvalue) * kfactor
In the conversion above, 'kfactor' is an analog value in the b3, the conversion can't be validated due to the reference to kfactor.
The solution is to replace 'kfactor' with its actual value
sqrt(elecvalue) * 10
