Issue How to migrate ebo_db from an old PostgreSQL/TimescaleDB PC to a new PostgreSQL/TimescaleDB PC Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation Environment PostgreSQL TimescaleDB pgAdmin Building Operation Workstation Cause When using External log Storage (the TimescaleDB in PostgreSQL server) in EcoStruxure Building Operation, it is often required to migrate the TimescaleDB (ebo_db) to a new PC or a different HDD due to the hard-disk space issue.   Resolution Stop the External Log Storage (TimescaleDB) from all the EBO servers (ES & AS’s). Using the attached zip file, extract the XML TimescaleDB Search Export and import this to the root location of your server.   The resulting search results will provide ALL servers' Timescale objects and show the status of the Event and Trend configurations. allowing you to multi-select and change the Event and Trend configuration settings quickly.  Use the CRTL key to only select the relevant servers. Alternatively, follow the steps below to locate these properties manually.    Note the Export is for version 3.2.3 Expand the ES Server, expand the System folder, and expand the External Log Storage folder. Right-click the TimescaleDB and select the Properties. Disable the Event Configuration & Trend Configuration and save. Repeat the above operation for all the other servers (AS’s) that are enabled for the External Log Storage. Create a new database in the destination External Log Storage server PC using the “EBO External Log Storage Installer” tool. Refer to page 5 “Database Management” section of the “EBO External Log Storage Installer.pdf” document for detail. Backup the “ebo_db” from the source TimescaleDB server PC using the pgAdmin 4 (refer to https://www.pgadmin.org/docs/pgadmin4/development/backup_dialog.html ), or refer to page 8 “Backup” section of the “EBO External Log Storage Installer.pdf” document for detail. Copy the DB backup file to the destination TimescaleDB server PC and restore the database using the pgAdmin4 tool (refer to https://www.pgadmin.org/docs/pgadmin4/development/restore_dialog.html ). DB Restoration may take a couple of minutes to a couple of hours depending on the size of the database. DB restoration results may show an error caused by pre-existing information in some tables, but it can be ignored. Once DB restoration is completed, make sure to check the timestamp of the oldest log data and the latest log data to verify the result. Start the External Log Storage (TimescaleDB) from all the EBO servers (ES & AS’s) using the search provided in Step 1 or manually as follows: Expand the ES Server, expand the System folder, and expand the External Log Storage folder. Right-click the TimescaleDB and select the Properties. Change the Database name, Host address, User name, and Password for the new (destination) External Log Storage server PC Enable the Event Configuration & Trend Configuration and save. Repeat the above operation for all the other servers (AS’s) that were disabled in the above step 1.

Issue For various reasons, it is sometimes necessary to change a b3's mac ID. For example, a b3 that is removed from a site and will later be used at a different site needs to have its mac id reset to factory default to avoid the possibility of introducing a duplicate mac id. NOTE: To set the MAC ID to the factory default you need BACnet Service Tool version 1.110004 or newer.   Product Line Andover Continuum, EcoStruxure Building Operation Environment Continuum b3 Controller Continuum Service Tool RoamIO2 BACnet Service Tool Cause The MAC ID needs to be set or changed on a b3 controller. Resolution IMPORTANT: If the b3 has previously been assigned a valid mac id then proceed to step #1. If the b3 has factory default slave mac id then see  CHANGING MAC ID ON A BRAND NEW B3 FROM THE FACTORY below Make sure the b3 is disconnected from the MSTP network then connect the RoamIO2 directly to the b3 using the service port. Launch the BACnet Service Tool and de-select the 'By Networks' and 'BACnet only' menu options in the view menu. Click the green icon to make the RoamIO2 sync to the baud rate of the b3 and discover it. In the 'Tools' menu select 'Set Offline B3 Mac Id' as shown below.  In the 'Modify MAC Id' window enter the b3's serial number and the new mac id to be set then click Apply. (NOTE: To set the MAC ID to factory default enter 172, DO NOT USE ZERO) To set the MAC Id to the factory default you need BACnet Service Tool version 1.110004 or newer. Tested working on beta version 1.119903). This beta version is attached. Download it and remove the .txt at the end to make it a zip file, unzip then see the readme.txt. A feedback message 'Success! will be returned if the MAC id was changed EXCEPT when setting the MAC Id to factory default (172) When setting the MAC Id to the factory default you will NOT get SUCCESS feedback, this is because the default id of 172 is a slave id (chosen because in hex it is AC for Andover Controls). Slave Ids are not allowed to initiate communication on the MSTP network. So, as a result of that, the b3 is unable to report to the RoamIO2 that the id was successfully changed. A visual sign that the ID was changed to 172 is that the TD led on the b3's RS485 port will shut off. Disconnect and re-connect to have the RoamIO2 communicate with the b3 using the new MAC id (unless you changed it to the factory default of 172). CHANGING MAC ID ON A BRAND NEW B3 FROM THE FACTORY The RoamIO2 can also be used to assign a mac id to a brand new b3 which has a factory default mac id of 0xAC (172 decimal) but the steps are a little different. In order for a RoamIO2 to be able to send communication packets to the b3, it first has to sync up with the baud rate of the b3, it does by listening and analyzing the packets sent by the b3 until it is able to determine the baud rate. As mentioned before, the factory default mac id of a b3 is slave id 172 which prohibits the b3s from sending out packets and makes it impossible for the RoamIO2 to determine the baud rate. There are several ways to work around the baud rate issue... Set the baud rate manually. Click on the green icon to attempt to connect the RoamIO2 to the b3. You will get an error that the baud rate could not be determined, click YES to proceed anyway From the 'Tools' menu select 'Set B3 Baud Rate' and set the baud rate to what you believe the last baud rate was for the b3. (The factory default baud rate is 19200) You should now be able to set the mac id per the steps above. NOTE: You may have to try all the baud rates until you find the one the b3 is operating at.

Issue The port range used by the Project Configuration Tool is incorrectly documented. Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation Environment Project Configuration Tool Cause Documentation and web-help states the port range is 49152 to 65535, this is incorrect. Resolution The correct port range used, for the engineering ports, i.e. the ports that the EBO servers are listening too, so that it is possible to log on with WorkStation is 32768-61000.

Issue An XLSX report is created using a triggered Notification in EBO. When the report should be opened in Excel an error appear "Excel cannot open the file ..." and the report can not be opened. Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation Environment Building Operation Workstation Excel for Microsoft 365, Excel 2021, Excel 2019, Excel 2016, Excel 2013 Office for business Cause Formatting cells on your worksheet can make the right information easy to see at a glance, but formatting cells that aren't been used (especially entire rows and columns) can cause your workbook's file size to grow quickly. This can slow down not just Excel, but the overall performance of your computer when you have an excessively formatted worksheet open. Excessive formatting can also cause printing problems in Excel. Resolution Use the Clean Excess Cell Formatting command, available on Excel's Inquire tab in Microsoft Office 365 and Office Professional Plus 2013. Important: You may want to make a backup copy of your file before cleaning the excess cell formatting because there are certain cases where this process may make your file increase in size, and there is no way to undo the change. If you don't see the Inquire tab in Excel, do the following to enable the Inquire add-in: Click File > Options > Add-Ins. Make sure COM Add-ins is selected in the Manage box, and click Go.   In the COM Add-Ins box, check Inquire, and then click OK. The Inquire tab should now be visible in the ribbon.   To remove the excess formatting in the current worksheet, do the following: On the Inquire tab, click Clean Excess Cell Formatting. Choose whether to clean only the active worksheet or all worksheets. After excess formatting has been cleared, click Yes to save changes to the sheets or No to cancel. See Microsoft support topic:  Clean excess cell formatting on a worksheet 

Issue How many client licenses are currently used? Which host is using the licenses?

Issue MP-V Air Flow is reading zero flow despite the Velocity Pressure having a positive value. Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation Environment MP-V-7A, MP-V-9A, RP-V-4A, RP-V-5A Variable Air Volume Data Cause The Air Flow value is an internally calculated value based on the Velocity Pressure. There are a number of values involved in that calculation that could result in no flow. Resolution Validate Variable Air Volume Data > Flow Balance Data > Rated box flow. The rated box flow defaults to 0 ft³/min in a new controller and must be replaced with the rated flow at 1.0inH₂O (provided by the box manufacturer). Compare Variable Air Volume Data > Velocity Pressure > Value to the Zero flow threshold. Any Velocity Pressure below the threshold will result in no flow. This threshold defaults to 0.008inH₂O. Check Variable Air Volume Data > Properties > Balanced k-factor and Balanced flow correction factor. If either of these values are at 0, there will be no flow. These values cannot be directly written to and are only the result of a flow balance calculation. To get them to update: Go to Variable Air Volume Data > Flow Balance Data and record all balancing data (you will need to manually re-enter it later). Set all 7 balancing values to 0 - Rated box flow, Box/Hood measured maximum/intermediate/minimum Right-click on Variable Air Volume Data and Download Re-enter the valid balancing data. The balanced k-factor should now show a value close to the rated box flow and the balanced flow correction factor should show a multiplier ideally between 0.5 and 2. If the box has not been balanced and no valid balancing data is available, leave the minimum flow readings at 0 and enter the same value into both the hood and box maximums (for example, 1000 and 1000). This will result in a balanced k-factor equal to the rated box flow and a balanced flow correction factor of 1.

Issue TGML graphic uses the NAM Standards component to display a SmartX Sensor Device with a dynamic cover model. The graphic always shows a blank faceplate instead of the correct face - 3 buttons, LCD, or Touchscreen. Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation Environment SmartX Sensor Device (Living Space Sensor/Room Unit Device) NAM Standards Team Components TGML Library TGML Graphic Thermostat - SmartX Living Space Sensor - Dynamic AppRev1.02.05 Cause A script running inside the graphic component is expecting a well-formatted string representing the cover model on the cover model input binding. If that data is not delivered properly, the component defaults to a blank cover. Resolution Verify that the proper component is being used based on Sensor Firmware. Verify the proper IP controller firmware is installed to meet compatibility with the Host Server and also contain desired features. Once a controller is upgraded and the sensor has had time to upgrade, check the Sensor - Properties - Basic Tab - Application Software version. If greater than or equal to 1.02.05, then use Thermostat - SmartX Living Space Sensor - Dynamic AppRev1.02.05 Otherwise use Thermostat - SmartX Living Space Sensor - Dynamic   The TGML component should work as expected, but factors outside of the graphic can make it not work right. Click on the SmartX Sensor Device and look at Properties > Basic > Status Information > Cover model. Does that show a valid cover model (ex: SXWSCBXSELXX) or does it show ASCII gibberish? If showing nonsensical ASCII string, hotfix firmware is available to address this.

There are two different resolutions to try in this order: Restart the AS-P Delete the SmartX Sensor Device (be sure to select "Keep references") and add it back as a new object with the same name and address.   The binding controlling the dynamic display of different cover models on the graphic can be overridden. Inside the TGML component are 3 groups named "3 Button," "LCD", and "Touchscreen." All are hidden. Find the proper face and change it to default to Visible. Find the Bind named "CoverModel" and delete the binding and script beneath it. This is what is responsible for auto-changing the cover and is no longer needed.

Issue Cyber security and other concerns regarding data transfer to Building Advisor Portal. Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation Environment Building Advisor  Cause Limited available documentation. Resolution   1. What are the details around the authentication towards AU? Where the certificate can be used for DTSERVICES and INTREPRETER server? The Data Transfer Windows service that is installed on our client's supplied server (normally within client's firewall). In order to support Clockworks Connect functionality, the private key of a private/public key pair is installed on same server that the windows service is installed on. The Data Transfer windows service currently supports TLS 1.2. The Clockworks Authentication web service provides ability to determine the identity of a request's caller. Validate Request with cryptographic challenge - Validate Request by creating cryptographic challenge for Data Transfer Service to sign with private key to confirm identity. Create Session Key - On successful validation, create and store Session key and send back to Data Transfer Service. Files are named with a date and time stamp to make them unique. When the DTS transfers the file successfully, it auto deletes the file from the folder. Saving the need to manage the file directory. It is expected the DTS will create the file, export and the handle transmission of the data.   2. How often will the pointslist file be updated (can this be replaced by a manual task)? Points list file would only be updated if configuration of BMS points has changed (i.e. from a retro fit or additional sensor etc.) – this would be a manual exercise post completion of BMS works. 3. What is the file-format and extension of the pointslist file? The Clockworks Data Transfer web service provides the following data to the Data Transfer windows services: • Data Transfer Service application configuration • Point configuration • BMS credentials It works in concert with the Clockworks Authentication web service to ensure a valid a session has been created and is not expired.   Interpreter 2 The Clockworks Interpreter web service provides the ability to send data from our client's Building Management System (BMS) to our Cloud environment to allow for visualization of that data in raw (primary) or as analyzed after calculations are performed on the raw data. The Interpreter web services receives data in HTTP GET or POST requests and parses and validated the request before storing in a serialized and compressed binary format. If needed, factors are applied to resolve known data issues from the source. The interpreter supports the following features: • Support TLS 1.0 and up for Transport Security. SSL is disabled. • Supports Triple DES (deprecated) and Rijndael algorithms for message level encryption. • Reserved IP address to ensure the same IP address is maintained which support organizations that: 1) Subscribe to default deny policy and do not trust DNS retrieval for security concerns 2) Not able to configure firewall rules by DNS and IP address if required. • Optional security to lock down requests by IP address 4. What is the estimated use of resources on the ES server, when polling through this instead of polling the automation server directly? EWS is used therefore the impact in very minimal. 5. What is the file-format and extension of the data file? The List method describes a CSV file which is organized such that each row contains a unique sample for a single point. Each row will typically contain a timestamp, value, data source reference, and point reference. This parsing method has the following features: Features: • All CSV files large and small are streamed creating a smaller memory footprint while parsing. • Only valid point reference IDs configured (i.e. from CW Connect or through local config) and found in the CSV file are pushed to Interpreter. • The Data Source Reference ID may be obtained from the following sources: Parent directory name being monitored, a static configuration value, or a user configurable column ID found in the CSV file. • The Point Reference ID may be obtained from the following source: A user configurable column ID found in the CSV file. • Date and Time may be in separate columns. • Date and Time may be in the same column. Universal Parser: Table Method 3 The Table method describes a CSV file which is organized such that a row exists which contains all point names, often called the "point info row", and below this row all point values and timestamps will be located. This parsing method has the following features: Features: • All CSV files large and small are streamed creating a smaller memory footprint while parsing. • Only valid point reference IDs configured (i.e. from CW Connect or through local config) and found in the CSV file are pushed to Interpreter. • The Data Source Reference ID may be obtained from the following sources: Parent directory name being monitored, a static configuration value, the as-is file name being parsed, a particular CSV cell above the point info row, or a location in a CSV column which is below the point info row. • The Point Reference IDs: The point info row is dynamically found by the DTS by matching criteria set by the user.

Issue Can the Program ID in Building Operation be changed Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation Environment Building Operation  Cause With Building Operation version 1.0, it was possible to modify the program ID. Now with the Building Operation version 1.1 and above it is not possible. Resolution From Building Operation 1.1 the Program ID is generated automatically and why it is not possible to change.

Issue After an Upgrade to an Automation Server controller, the Requested values of some outputs and actual values do not match. Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation Environment Enterprise Server Workstation Automation Server with I/O Modules Cause The upgrade process somehow has caused some issues with the comm between the AS with I/O modules and the Enterprise Server/Workstation.

Issue Problems associated with the install of the Enterprise Server on the Swedish language version of Windows Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation Environment Windows computer with the Swedish language Cause In Swedish Windows there is no directory named "Program Files". It's named "Program". That's the path that the ES tries to register for the Windows service for ES. Check this log upon installation failure: C:\Program Files\Schneider Electric\StruxureWare x.x\Software Administrator for the SE.softwareAdministrator.log If that log contains:"Hittades inte" it means "Didn't find". In other words, the Software Administrator couldn't find the service. Resolution Find out what the registry key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Schneider Electric\StruxureWare x.x\Enterprise Server\InstallDir has for value. If using a truly Swedish version of OS, it should be " C:\Program\Schneider Electric\StruxureWare x.x\Enterprise Server\bin\SE.EnterpriseServer.exe". Change the value and start the ES as a Service. Often the problem is that Software Administrator cannot create the windows service for ES. One solution is to manually create the service for the ES. The Software Administrator is typically supposed to create the service in the OS.
