Niagara R2 MicroSmart Integration – Updating Station After Controller Reprogramming

[Product_Support]

Issue

An existing Niagara R2 MicroSmart integration has been operational for several years. Recent changes required reprogramming of some MicroSmart controllers (points added, deleted, or renamed). How should these changes be uploaded to the existing station in the UNC?

Product Line

TAC IA Series

Environment

Niagara R2 MicroSmart integrations (all versions)

Cause

Changes were made to building HVAC equipment, requiring updates to point configurations in MicroSmart controllers.

Resolution

The MicroSmart driver references the point list stored in the PointListManager of the IbsMsService.
To reflect changes in the station:

1. Any modification to point type, order, ID, engineering unit, or status ID requires uploading a new point list.
2. Review the MicroSmart Driver Engineering Guide (F-27327), Chapter 3, Sections 3.3 and 3.3.1 for detailed instructions on:
   • Updating unit displays
   • Updating GX page “displays”
