The "In Sync" icon that appears in the upper right corner of every page is the global "everything is in sync". If red, it means there is at least one red icon on some page somewhere in the configuration tool.
  • Page 26 4. Who-Is Page file:///C:/AAA_CSI/Literature/2023%20User%20Guides/VP6-1430%2... Who-Is via IP Router The ValuPoint configuration tool will work when connected via a BACnet IP router (check Enable IP on Connect page). The Who-Is list of MS/TP devices will appear as illustrated below when connected via IP. Note that multiple MS/TP devices will appear at the same IP address.
  • Page 27 4. Who-Is Page file:///C:/AAA_CSI/Literature/2023%20User%20Guides/VP6-1430%2... To see the full network address in cases like this, you need to expand the address column. Here we can see several BACnet IP devices accessible via the BACnet router. 8 of 10 2/5/2024, 1:44 PM...
  • Page 28 4. Who-Is Page file:///C:/AAA_CSI/Literature/2023%20User%20Guides/VP6-1430%2... Targeted Who-Is It is possible on a large network, especially when connected via IP, that there will be so many I-Am replies coming back in response to the Who-Is request that they do not all get through. It has been verified using WireShark that it is not a matter of the tool missing them, it is a matter of the I-Am simply not arriving at all because the network is flooded.

Retrieve Device Object Information from Device Clicking the ‘Get Info’ button will read all of the information shown on the left half on this page, except that no password is ever read out (not permitted by the device).
  • Page 35 6. Device Page file:///C:/AAA_CSI/Literature/2023%20User%20Guides/VP6-1430%2... This Device Name must be a unique name on your BACnet network. When a BACnet client broadcasts a "Who-Has" request asking for a Device Name device object by a given name, you will create problems on the network if more than one device responds with the same device name.
  • Page 36 6. Device Page file:///C:/AAA_CSI/Literature/2023%20User%20Guides/VP6-1430%2... This is the MAC address of the device. The MAC address must be unique on the network. If more than one device is given the same TP Station or MAC address, the MS/TP network will fail to function. Not only will this MAC Addr device fail to communicate, but the entire network will be corrupted by duplicate MAC addresses.

When you are ready to reconfigure the device with the new object allocation, click the ‘Reconfigure’ button. NOTE: This action will completely erase all prior object map configuration.
  • Page 44 6. Device Page file:///C:/AAA_CSI/Literature/2023%20User%20Guides/VP6-1430%2... The configuration is now ready to be applied. 11 of 24 2/5/2024, 1:45 PM...
  • Page 45 6. Device Page file:///C:/AAA_CSI/Literature/2023%20User%20Guides/VP6-1430%2... At this point, the desired new object counts have been sent to the device, but the device has not yet implemented the change. You need to reinitialize the device to finalize the process. Enter the password (default is "valupoint") and click the Reinit Device button.
  • Page 46 6. Device Page file:///C:/AAA_CSI/Literature/2023%20User%20Guides/VP6-1430%2... You can now click the Get Counts button again to verify the counts in the device. The numbers on the screen will be replaced with whatever is actually in the device, and if all went well, they will be what you thought you had asked for. But if you had failed to enter the correct password, your request was not executed (and there would have been an error message in the status window at the bottom of the screen).
  • Page 47 6. Device Page file:///C:/AAA_CSI/Literature/2023%20User%20Guides/VP6-1430%2... Fixing "Invalid Configuration" Depending on what the previous object counts had been and what you are trying to change them to, you may get the error indicated in the log window at the bottom of the screen illustrated below. This message appears after clicking OK on the dialog box that appears when you click the Reconfigure button.
  • Page 48 6. Device Page file:///C:/AAA_CSI/Literature/2023%20User%20Guides/VP6-1430%2... If you add up the object counts in the Pending column, the total does not exceed the maximum of 500. So why is this error happening? The writing of object counts from the configuration tool to the device is largely transparent - you just click the button.
  • Page 49 6. Device Page file:///C:/AAA_CSI/Literature/2023%20User%20Guides/VP6-1430%2...
