FX Tools Software Package

FX CommPro N2

Introduction

Figure1: FX CommPro N2 Tool

FX CommPro N2 is used for downloading and commissioning applications in the Facility Explorer controllers.

Commissioning is a set of processes that ensures that the control application is designed, programmed and operates in an optimal fashion to meet the design specification.

FX CommPro N2 enables the user to test the control application in the connected Facility Explorer controllers.

Parameter setting and control tuning is performed in the online mode. The tool enables you to read the device status, read and write input/output network variables, and to both configure parameters in the network profile and automatically download them to the controller.

The parameters can be saved onto a hard disk for later archiving.


The controllers need to have an N2Open card installed in order to be able to communicate with FX CommPro N2. Refer to the Facility Explorer documentation for the appropriate controller ordering information.

The FX CommPro N2 Version uses the same Plug-in concept of the FX Builder Express and is guided to configure and tune the parameters in the online mode through an intuitive user interface.

FX CommPro N2 functions include:

• Read/write of device status

• Read/write of Network Variables Input (nvi)

• Reading of Network Variables Output (nvo)

• Read/write of Configuration Properties (nci or cp)

• Downloading new LON communication card firmware

• Downloading new control applications

• Modifying, saving, and downloading parameters

• Reading device-specific data

This manual has been written with the assumption that the reader is familiar with the N2 Open protocol and Microsoft® Windows® operating system.

Figure 51 : Generation of the Commissioning File via FX

Builder

Important Note : the commissioning file is automatically created by the FX CommPro N2 when downloading an application file. The file is automatically storage in :

..\JCI\FX CommProN2\CommissioningFiles. If an application downloading is performed via FX Loader, there could be a problem in synchronization. At this stage, the commissioning file needs to be manually storage in :

..\JCI\FX CommProN2\CommissioningFiles.

Commissioning File details The name of the file generated has the following structure.

CRC_GUID.ProgramID.fileName

Figure 52: Commissioning File

The commissioning file is uniquely identified, from one version to the other of the same application, by the CRC. The commissioning file is always needed when the commissioning is done with FX CommPro N2 using the N2Open protocol.

When asked to explore NVs and CPs variables for a connected device, FX CommPro N2 will scan the Application folder and automatically create an entry in the Commissioning File folder for the APP and APD files found.
