Issue
The en1 network adapter is not an option for assignment when configuring an IP port
Product Line
TAC IA Series, EcoStruxure Building Operation
Environment
- I/A Series N4 Jace 9000
- Building Operation Multi-purpose Controller / VAV (MP-C / MP-V)
- Building Operation Room Controller / VAV (RP-C / RP-V)
- Building Operation IP-IO
Cause
With the switch to Linux for the Jace 9000's operating system, some functions such as sensing adapters work differently when configuring a controller station.
Resolution
In N4.13, we have added a new action to find adapters when Jace's are being pre-configured offsite. Start by confirming in the TCP/IP Configuration page that the desired port is configured and enabled. Make sure that some communicating device is connected to the desired port, exhibited by the port's lights on the unit. Examples include a workbench connection, a BACnet IP device/router, or another Niagara Device. Right-click on the "Link" component under the port, and select the "Query For Adapters" option. You should now see the port in the dropdown.
Note: With N4.14, using the en1 as a DHCP server is possible. If using this with BACnet IP MP, RP or IP/IO in Space Logic controllers engineering with Niagara, this is an important consideration for network applications.
