IPM Web Access for StruxureWare

Issue Logging on to IPM from the web and the default password is not recognized. An error comes up saying Invalid user. Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation, TAC INET Environment StruxureWare Building Operation, I/Net Cause The default password can be used on the I/Net side but it is not being recognized when logging in from the StruxureWare IPM. Resolution To resolve this issue, the following step needs to be followed: From the original installation folder, find and unzip the Sboscripts.zip from ‘\InetWeb\UpdateScript' folder.

Correct Boot Up sequence for I/NET Enterprise Server Level Integration to StruxureWare

Issue Correct Boot Up sequence for I/NET Enterprise Server Level Integration to StruxureWare. Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation, TAC INET Environment I/NET to StruxureWare Enterprise Server Level Integration Cause Sites which are recovering from a power failure are are using Remote Client with I/O may have certain failures within the system.

Resolution Restart the SQL Server or Server PC Restart the I/NET I/O Server and ensure it is running as a service Restart the Enterprise Server In order to add the I/NET I/O Server as a dependency for the Enterprise Server use the command prompt line below. Be sure to change the 1.X to reflect the current version of SBO installed. Open the Command prompt Enter the command: sc config "Building Operation 1.X Enterprise Server" depend= inet7iosrv

Event Action Message Masking

Issue I/NET action messages are triggering audible alarms AMT is not functioning as expected for points that have action messages associated with them. Environment I/NET Cause As a best practice, I/Net action messages should be masked and grouped the same as the point which is triggering the message. When this is not done, AMT gets harder to manage. Resolution Edit the Resident I/O configuration of  the point which is triggering the event action. Note the Distribution group and Mask Edit the Event Action that is being triggered. Ensure that the Event Action has the same masking as the Resident I/O point.

UI-8-10 input reads only 5 volts dc when dip switch is set for 10 volt input.

Issue UI-8-10 input reads only 5 volts dc  when dip switch is set for 10 volt input. Environment UI-8-10 Input Cause Improperly configured input. Resolution Page 40 of IO Module System Reference Guide states.  The 0-10V range allows connection to signals up to 10.00V. In this mode the circuit actually uses the same input measuring circuit as the 0-5V range, however, it divides the voltage present by two thereby limiting the internal circuitry to 0-5V. When you read a 0- 10V input the actual reading will be 0-5V. You must adjust your readings for the higher range via formula. This is accomplished by applying a conversion factor to the reading. When creating a 10V InfinityInput, set the Conversion to ElecValue * 2.   When using the 10V mode be sure to set the Reference resistor switch to Off.   Note: Setting the Reference Resistor enable switch to ‘ON’ and setting the Range to ‘10V’ is invalid. Switching to 10V inputs dramatically lowers the impedance of the input to 4.4 KΩ.

Moving a Converted I/NET graphic for the ES level integration of I/NET to the AS level of Integration to I/NET

Issue Moving a Converted I/NET graphic for the ES level integration of I/NET to the AS level of Integration to I/NET Environment StruxureWare TGML I/NET Cause As sites expand, controllers that are currently integrated to StruxureWare using the Enterprise server may be connected to the USB interface to the Automation Server.  It is possible for these relocated controllers to continue to use the same graphics. Resolution Recreate the exact folder location of the graphic on the AS. For Example, if the graphic is currently on the ES\INET Interface\INET Graphics folder, the user should create an INET Interface\INET Graphics Folder on the AS Copy the Graphic on the ES Paste the Graphic on the AS Clean up any bindings.  Any I/NET objects that were re-named after the initial conversion may need to be manually re-bound. Links between graphics may also need to be re-bound.
