Issue
Are the following SNVTs supported in Vista 5.1.6?
- SNVT_Amp_ac
- SNVT_Count_32
- SNVT_Volt_ac
Environment
Xenta X5XX, X7XX, X9XX with firmware 5.1.6
Cause
The SNVTs SNVT_Amp_ac, SNVT_Count_32 and SNVT_Volt_ac are not included in the Xenta 5.1.6 firmware. They will be included in 5.1.7. There is however a workaround available in 5.1.6
Resolution
- Locate the SNVTtype.def file in the Xenta server.
Connect to the Xenta server using an FTP client and locate the SNVTtype.def file under configdb/Lon/SNVTTYPE.def. - Copy the file to your PC and make a backup copy
- Edit the file with a suitable text editor (notepad, notepad2 etc)
-Locate the SNVT_amp definition
-Add the following lines after SNVT_amp definition (see screenshot below):
