Issue
Getting error - Cannot start component: Asd Block Output Proxy Ext during the startup of the I/A Series G3 tacAsd driver. The error appears as follows:
ERROR [16:31:24 04-Mar-13 CST][sys.engine] Cannot start component: Asd Block Output Proxy Ext
java.lang.ClassCastException: com.tac.tacAsd.point.BAsdPointBlockDeviceExt incompatible with javax.baja.driver.BDevice
Environment
I/A Series G3, tacAsd, ASD driver
Cause
The driver appears to operate however errors are displayed during the station startup sequence. The error is typically related to a set of BAsdPointBlockDeviceExt objects that were duplicated as a child of the points deviceExt.
Resolution
Review the Points folder for each ASD device and remove the duplicated or improperly placed BAsdPointBlockDeviceExt objects. The Batch Editor can also be used to assist in locating the duplicates.
Open the Batch Editor from the Program Service and select Find Objects
Using the BQL Query Builder - select (Custom Type), tacAsd, AsdPointBlockDeviceExt - select OK.
This will list all AsdPointBlockDeviceExt extensions and their associated path. There should only be one Points child folder for each device. Locate and delete the duplicate Points folder and objects.
