How to automatically acknowledge alarms.

Issue Need a way to automatically acknowledge alarms. Environment CyberStation Cause All alarms need to be logged in the Continuum database but there are certain alarms routed to another system for processing. It is preferred that these are automatically acknowledged in Continuum so as not to tie up the Continuum logged on user. Resolution Continuum can do this using the Plain English AckAlarm function. Scripts within a Pinpoint graphic can also be set up to do this. Refer to the Continuum online help system and search for 'Alarm' in the index. Select 'Alarm functions, Plain English' and review the four subtopics: AckAlarm, Overview, Pop Alarm and User-defined alarm functions.

Vista - Menta error code Mainloop overrun. The application program can not execute within the specified cycle time

Issue Occasionally get a alarm in Vista that is connected to the bit 16 of the error block in Menta (Mainloop overrun. The application program can not execute within the specified cycle time) Environment Vista Menta Xenta Cause In Menta under Program Specification there is a parameter called cycle time. This parameter tells how often the program should be run in the Xenta. If the program take more time to execute then the specified value Vista will show a error connected to a error block in Menta, "Mainloop overrun. The application program can not execute within the specified cycle time" Vista will not show this specific text, Vista will show the text that you choose to show in the Alarm block connected to the Error block. I.e. In Menta you have a error block that leads to a XPR block (expression block) that have the expression A&16, when this expression is meet it goes to the alarm block that will generate an alarm text of your choice. (16 is the bit that tells a Mainloop overrun. The application program can not execute within the specified cycle time have occurred.) The Error block has several condition and work like this The output of this block is an integer value where each bit represents an internal signal or error from the system program. Each output bit is set as long as the error condition remains, remains. In the case of a restart after a power failure, the output bit is set during the first program cycle after the restart. The output value is zero when no error conditions are set. Conditions:   Bit no. Output value Description 0 1 Restart after power failure 1 2 Integer underflow/overflow 2 4 CNT block overflow 3 8 RT block overflow 4 16 Mainloop overrun. The application program can not execute within the specified cycle time 5 32 At least one of the switches on one of the I/O modules associated with the application, is in the position for manual override (ON, OFF, MAN) of the output 6 64 Indicates that an OP is connected, and the user is logged in at medium (yellow) or high level (red). 7 128   8 256 Dial-up modem line to TAC Xenta unit disabled 9 512 Update of a Network variable value was not received within the set Period 10 1024 There are tripped priority 1 alarms in the alarm list 11 2048 One or several I/O modules offline 12 4096 I/O in forced mode 13 8192 There are tripped and unacknowledged alarms in the alarm list 14 16384 There are tripped and not reset alarms in the alarm list Resolution To remedy this error change the cycle time to a higher value or make the Menta code lighter

First object in a Sigma IC3-SNP always displays it's default value

Issue The Sigma object associated with the first entry in the Gateway.txt file of an S-IC3-SNP integration controller when displayed in the Sigma System Manager, always shows its default value. Environment Sigma S-IC3-SNP Cause There is an issue with the way that the S-IC3-SNP processes the object mapping file (gateway.txt) file, please note that this issue does not affect the earlier S-IC-SNP Resolution TPA-LOND-08-0011.00 provides a workaround for this issue, the work around involves adding a dummy line to the Gateway.txt file, this then allows the first object to be displayed normally.

Get alarm "The digital signature does not match".

Issue Every time the trendlog data should be viewed an alarm saying" The digital signature does not match, values might not be reliable". How can we avoid this? Environment Vista 4.4.2 Cause In old Vista versions like Vista 4.4.x we had something called Digital signature to check that the data in the SQL database had not been tampered with. This have been taken away in later Vista version as it slowed down and caused problems with trendlogs. The alarm indicates that someone have done something in the SQL database and the digital signature does not match.   Resolution It is possible to turn off the Digital signature in the Vista server setup under the SQL tab and then restart the Vista server. Then Vista will not do this check and the alarm should not appear.

Can a BACnet device instance number be changed from the UNC or ENC?

Issue Can a BACnet device instance number be changed from the UNC or ENC? Environment I/A Series, Niagara R2 and G3 Cause Some third party BACnet devices come with a fixed instance number based on their model and address on an MSTP trunk.  Having them on multiple trunks will cause duplicate instance numbers in the system.  Resolution The R2 software does not have capability to do this.  If the device instance number is changed in the shadow object communications to the device is lost before the new instance number is written to the device.  The G3 software has a button at the bottom of the BACnet Device Manager page called "DeviceID" specifically for this purpose.

Differences between the CX9400 and 9410

Issue How different are these controllers and can they be swapped out in the field? Environment CX9400 CX9410 Cause There are differences between the 2 controllers and there are considerations when swapping them out Resolution The CX9400 has 4 MG of memory The CX9410 has 8 MG of memory.  The co-processors of the controllers are also different, so it was never possible to just add memory in the field, they had to be shipped to repair to add the memory and change the co-processor. The units can be swapped out, but considerations are related to memory. If the functions that are being used are more memory intensive then swapping from the 9400 to the 9410 could cause latency issues or other performance problems.
