Issue When "learning" an MNB controller into a Niagara R2 UNC station that has an MN-Sx sensor, a read failure occurs and several WARNING messages appear  in the Standard Output Window. These errors did not occur in uploads with BACnet jar files previous to 527i. Environment MNB controller Niagara R2 UNC station MN-Sx sensor BACnet jar file (527i) Cause A change that occurred in the 527i BACnet jar file. Resolution These messages occur with BACnet jar file 527i and later and are legitimate. They are a result of uploading the S_LK_Display1 object. The read failure for description property occurs because there is no description in this object and the subsequent warnings are because Niagara R2 does not support the files listed. This was true of previous BACnet jars as well but was not reported.

Following a download or reset, the PBOccMode tag comes back as NA

Issue The Workplace Tech Tool 4.0 Engineering Guide (F-27254), Chapter 3 - "S-Link Sensor Tags", states "PBOccMode" is 0 following a download or reset.  This is incorrect.  Following a download or reset, the PBOccMode tag comes back as NA. Environment Lon and BACnet controllers with MN stats Cause error in documentation Resolution There is a work around if a 0 is required following a download or reset. If the existing logic is not able to handle the "NA", then link PBOccMode into Input[1] of a two input "Priority Object". Set Input[2] to a constant of 0. The Priority object will output a 0 following a download or reset.

A Niagara R2 / MicroSmart integration is creating IbsMs invalid condition and receive message entries in the Standard Output Window.

Issue A Niagara R2 / MicroSmart integration is creating IbsMs invalid condition and receive message entries in the Standard Output Window. Here is an example: ***IbsMs receive message: 454130433130464631433543 ***IbsMS invalid condition received: 28 Environment Niagara R2 MicroSmart Cause When the points are learned into the UNC station, it is in a specific order and the station records this information for making requests. If that order is changed in the MicroSmart, then the mismatch occurs. Resolution The mismatch occurs specifically when a record number is reused (i.e. a point is deleted and a new point created) and the point types are different. For example, an Analog Output point is deleted and a Start/Stop point is created – with the Start/Stop point being assigned the record number that was previously used by the Analog Output point. The UNC is expecting an analog point for that record number but is getting a response from a different point type. There are two choices to fix this situation: The controller is to be re-learned. Unfortunately, this will result in lost links and the need to go back and re-link all bindings done with this controller's database. Re-load the MicroSmart controllers with the original database so that it matches the learned database in the station. To find the offending controller(s), turn on de-bug and see if that will provide pointers to the controller(s) creating the error message. When done, make sure to turn off de-bug as it will create a large amount of entries in the Standard Output Window.

Opening java or TGML graphics or is very slow or they don't open at all. You may also have various java error popups.

Issue Opening java or TGML graphics is very slow or they don't open at all. You may also have various java error popups. Environment TGML Graphics Cause The Java applet is limited to the amount of memory it is allowed to use. This will also limit how much memory java or TGML graphics are allowed to use, and can slow the rendering. Resolution It is possible to expand the amount of memory the Java applet has access to, and that seems to help in some cases. To increase this memory, do the following: Open the Control Panel in Windows and double click on "Java" Click the tab "Java" In "Java Applet Runtime Settings", choose "View" Find the most recent Java version runtime line (1.6.0_11) and double click on the "Java Runtime Parameters" box and add "-Xmx300m". This sets the Java maximum heap size to 300 MB. For some unknown reason, some computers with large amounts of installed memory are limited to how much memory they can assign to their Java VM. If you experience problems, just reduce the "300" to some smaller number (like 250, 200, 150, etc). However some computers have no problems setting the value to "1000". This procedure must be done to each computer individually. Also, remember to close all Internet Explorer windows for the changes to take affect.

Issue When using a Niagara R2 Enterprise Server with a "Remote Printer Recipient" on a large network with many printers, the Enterprise Server can take several minutes to complete its station startup following a reset. Environment Niagara R2 Enterprise Server Network printers Cause This situation is possible due to the remote printer recipient object that is attempting to populate its network printer recipient list. This would not be noticeable unless there are hundreds of printers on the network. This is how the remote printer recipient is designed to function. Resolution Possible workarounds for very large jobs affected by this would be to: Re-configure the customer's network so there are not so many networked printers Define local printers (or map network printers as local printers) in order to use the Local Printer Recipient Use the Vykon Alarm client to send alarms to network printers. Be advised printers other than dot matrix types will print one alarm per page.

Niagara R2 GCM driver version 2.304.522 may generate errors when uploading VEO information.

Issue Niagara R2 GCM driver version 2.304.522 may generate errors when uploading VEO information. Environment Niagara R2 GCM driver version 2.304.522 Cause This error is generated if there are attributes in VEO## list but there is no LABEL block associated with this VEO. Resolution There is a CreateVeoGxPages button located on the Block List Manager screen. This feature is intended to upload the GCM's View/Edit/Override information and generate the appropriate display screens. This function uploads the VEO information successfully, however it may fail to complete the process and generate a "NullPointerException".  To work around this error, create LABEL blocks in the GCM for each VEO used. Make sure to properly name each LABEL block starting with VEO and ending with 01 to 10. It is also possible a "ClassNotFoundException" will be generated during this upload process. This error is caused by the attribute types found in the VEOs uploaded. The GCM driver can only handle AV and DV types in the list. Any other types in the list will cause this error. To eliminate the error all non AV or DV attributes must be removed from the VEO attribute list(s) in the GCM.

Issue Using Workplace Tech with a MNL-VxRVx controller, the nciBalanceOvrd snvt was used to set the VAV damper to the full closed and full open positions. After 10-15 minutes the override was automatically cleared. Why does this happen? Environment Workplace Tech MNL-VxRVx controller Cause This is a built-in feature of the MNL-VxRVx controller. Resolution The override on this snvt times out and clears automatically - unless the override is re-applied every few minutes. This feature was added to prevent the damper from being left in an override state accidentally. For example, when using the MicroNet Flow Balance Tool, a damper can be overridden open or closed as a part of a test balance. If the Tool was accidentally disconnected from the controller, or, the user forgot to release the override, the MNL controller will clear the override automatically after 10-15 minutes.
