Alarm Generator compare constants

struglia — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 20:40:50 GMT

I've had issues with Smartserver 2.0 alarm generator compare constants changing values after reboots. I'lll set it up to a compare value of "ON" or "100.0 1", and after reboot it has changed to "OFF" or "0.0 0" Compares using datapoints work fine. Are those constants stored somewhere and need to be specifically told to stay constant? The manual says a CompareDP should be created for the alarm generator, but I have never seen one show up. Anyone else have this issue? Can I just as well compare to nviAgCompare (not bound to anything) and set up the default value of it to "100.0 1"?

Send soap headers in php

anet — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 07:57:09 GMT

Hi again !

Someone knows how to add soap headers in PHP?

I know the headers i have to send:

<SOAP-ENV:Header>
       <p:messageProperties xmlns:p="http://wsdl.echelon.com/web_services_ns/ilon100/v4.0/message/">
              <p:UCPTtimeStamp>2005-02-02T11:30:15.220+01:00</p:UCPTtimeStamp>
              <p:UCPTuniqueId>030000066f02</p:UCPTuniqueId>
              <p:UCPTipAddress>172.25.143.222</p:UCPTipAddress>
              <p:UCPTport>80</p:UCPTport>
              <p:UCPTlastUpdate>2005-02-02T11:31:41Z</p:UCPTlastUpdate>
              <p:UCPTprocessingTime>90</p:UCPTprocessingTime>
       </p:messageProperties>
</SOAP-ENV:Header>

but i don't have idea about how to do this.

I try this way but don't works

$this->client=new SoapClient("http://$ip/WSDL/v4.0/iLON100.WSDL",
                       array(   'location' => "http://$ip/WSDL/iLON100.wsdl",
                               'connection_timeout' => 1,
                               'exceptions' => true,
                               'trace'=>true
                           ));
                   $header=array();
                   $header=new SoapHeader(   'http://wsdl.echelon.com/web_services_ns/ilon100/v4.0/message/',
                                               'messageProperties'
                                           );
                   //$this->client->__setSoapHeaders($header);

any idea?

xsi:type fails in get functions

anet — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 12:51:48 GMT

Every time i put a xsy:type next to an item in Get functions i obtain this error:

Fatal error:  Uncaught SoapFault exception: [3] XML error in SOAP request

Sample code:

      </Item>
</iLonItem>
</Get>

Someone knows the reason?

How to setup the Java Programming Environment

chwang — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 06:21:39 GMT

I am trying to follow the i.LON SmartServer 2 Programmers Reference.pdf chapter 22 to set up Java programming Environment, when I go to 22-6 try to install Maven integration software, got the following problem: from Eclipse Help-->Install New Software-->enter http://m2exlipse.sonatype.org/update/ to work with column, eclipse keep response with: Unable to read repository at http://m2eclipse.nonatype.org/update/. So what is the problem?

Delete a specific data point on a Scheduler

anet — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 08:33:56 GMT

I am trying to detele a specific data point on a Scheduler. The manual only provides this example:

<Delete xmlns=\"http://wsdl.echelon.com/web_services_ns/ilon100/v4.0/message/\">
<iLonItem> <Item xsi:type="UFPTscheduler_Cfg">
<UCPTname>Net/LON/iLON App/Scheduler</UCPTname>
</Item> </iLonItem>
</Delete>

This action delete the entire scheduler. sombody knows how can i delete only a data point?

I have tried with this XML:

<Delete xmlns=\"http://wsdl.echelon.com/web_services_ns/ilon100/v4.0/message/\">
<iLonItem>
        <Item $xsi>
            <UCPTname>Net/LON/iLON App/Scheduler</UCPTname>
            <DataPoint>
                <UCPTname>Net/LON/iLON/COMPONENT1</UCPTname>
            </DataPoint>
        </Item>
    </iLonItem>
</Delete>

but it removes all the data points on the scheduler.I don't want to use the SET function because i will have to rewrite the entire UFPTscheduler_Cfg.

Somebody can help me?

SmartServer not booting after power failure

lumatec — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 11:17:58 GMT

Hello,

we realized that one of our SmartServers doesn't always reboot after a power failure. Sometimes the reboot process stucks, and sometimes a noise can be heard (like a switched power supply in idle mode). The green LED is ON permanently. When we saw that, we did a 'Clean Up'. The problem still remained.

Firmware: 4.02.055

Bootrom: 4.02.046

The last lines on the console read:

fnSystemEventLogger_Init
value = 0 = 0x0
startLonTalkApplications
Tx/Rx LEDs under PLT control

After that the boot process stucks.

If we interrupt the boot process and then reboot from console, the last line reads:

Unmounting flash disk

After that, the boot process stucks.

We are very concerned about that. Last week we had a problem with a SmartServer not booting anymore with a customer. After 'Clean Up' and reconfiguring (1 days work...) it seemed to work again. But the server mentioned above remains unreliable.

What can we do in order to repair that? What may have happened to these servers that causes that? How to avoid that?

Best regards,

Daniel

P.S. We noted that the duration of the power failure may influence that behaviour. After some minutes off power, the server normally is able to reboot.

SmartServer reboots when network monitor running

lumatec — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 08:58:38 GMT

Hello,

we have currently three SmartServers running in our company. Everything worked fine until yesterday, when suddenly all SmartServers started to reboot again and again. They did that in cycles between 15 and 30min. We then realized, that the phenomenon ceased when the LAN was disconnected.

Then we found out, that the problem was due to the trial of a new 'Network Monitor' by our IT department. The network monitor may be found at www.mikrotik.com/thedude . As soon as that application was stopped, the problem was solved.

Now, we just decided not to use that network monitor anymore. But we are afraid, that our customers may use the same (or a similar) tool. We think that the SmartServer should be compatible with such tools.

Echelon, thank your for taking action.

Best regards,

Daniel

Accessing multiple datapoints within a single custom javascript

Rode — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 18:16:26 GMT

Hello everyone, I need some help...

How can I read/write to multiple datapoints within a single custom javascript object in i.LON Vision2?

For example, I have two data points: temp_f1 and temp_f

Here is part of the code generated by i.LON Vision2:

And here is what I put in the custom javascript

function test(argObj)
{
this.update = function(type, item)
{
if (type=="Dp_Data")
{
m_textarea.innerHTML = item.UCPTvalue[0].get();
m_span.innerHTML = item.UCPTname.get();
m_text.innerHTML = item.UCPTvalue[1].get();
}
}

var m_domObj = argObj.domObj;

var m_textarea =
m_domObj.appendChild(document.createElement("textarea"));
var break2 = m_domObj.appendChild(document.createElement("br"));
//create span reading DP name
var m_span = m_domObj.appendChild(document.createElement("span"));
var break3 = m_domObj.appendChild(document.createElement("br"));
var m_text = m_domObj.appendChild(document.createElement("text"));
};
EchelonTop.Echelon.provide("test", document);

I don't think the following code is going to give me temp_f1. How can I access to both temp_f and temp_f1?

m_text.innerHTML = item.UCPTvalue[1].get();

Thank you for any suggestions!

How to develop on WWW visibilty of elements?

rmajda — Thu, 08 Jul 2010 10:11:19 GMT

Hi,

We have some controller which works on LON network. This controller has many parameters and modules which we have to configure. We need to develop WWW to configure modules but some parameters (DataPoints) should be visible conditionally.

For example if Param1 < 100, Param2 (eg. editbox for this DataPoint) should be visible on WWW but if Param1 >= 100, Param2 should be not visible on WWW.

Or second scenario if Param1 < 100, link Lights.htm should be visible but if Param1 > 100, link Engines.htm should be visible but if Param1 == 100, no link is visible.

How to create this kind of functionality? Which component can we use or where to read about this?

Regards,

Rafal

SS2.0 adding Real Time Clock Lonmaker Turbo

struglia — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 20:56:40 GMT

Have recently started learning the Smartserver2.0 and can't get Lonmaker Turbo (3.22.12 SP2) to add an RTC (Clock + APS) function block from the Smartserver stencil to the page. Error #92-- Specified config property not found. SS2.0 software is installed, and now "repaired" but still same issue. It *will* let me add a LonMaker Basic Shape/Function Block/Real Time Clock, not sure how that will fly, though.... Thanks.

minimum acess time for smartserver to reduce traffic

Abhilash.s — Sat, 12 Jun 2010 05:27:28 GMT

Hi all,

we are workin on a poject based on energy management. we are using our own lonworks based energy meters. During recent tetsing by commisioning it in a smart serevr, the smart server shows some random meters as offline . The meters were workin fine for a week and all of a sudden , the smart server shws meters as offline even though the readings are displayed on meter. i have oly commisioned 22 meters in a single channel. The polling rate is set to 4 sec for all data points. why is this happening? i thought it might be the prob wit meter, but even after repacing it it a new meter , the same problem persists. can somebody help me out??

Device Discovery

lumatec — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 14:10:26 GMT

Hello,

we try using the new device discovery feature of the Smart 2.0. Smart 2.0 in standalone mode, with one unconfigured device connected.

We did 'copy/paste' with the sample program in the Programmer's Reference (p21-47). But we got stuck. The 'scanStatusCheck' seems to stay STATUS_PENDING forever. If we interrupt the scan with the debugger, and read the 'datalogger', we see that the unconfigured device actually has been found. So, why doesn't the status become STATUS_DONE?

What's more:

- in the datalogger we see, that our device has been found several times. How is that possible, if the 'setFrequency' is set to ScanOnce ? (There seems to be a scan every 150seconds)

- the datalogger also contains all the previous scan results. Do we have to clear that datalogger before using it for a new scan ?

Best regards,

Daniel
