10.8 Cannot Export or Control Data Within Bailey
1.) Verify that the Bailey interface device supports this type of activity.
2.) Verify the allowable ranges for the attribute being written match those
configured within Bailey. For example you cannot write an OUT value
that exceeds the OUT_SCALE limits.
3.) Verify the Bailey interface does not have monitor mode enabled (very
unlikely). Monitor mode is set using an ASCII terminal attached to the
termination unit/module printer port and that port selected for the utility
mode (consult Bailey interface manual). Normally, monitor mode is
disabled when a Bailey interface is received from the Bailey factory. It
is unlikely that monitor mode is enabled unless someone had attached
an ASCII terminal at one time and was "experimenting" with the
available options within the Bailey interface utility menus.
4.) Verify the Device is not “locked” by looking at the Device LOCK
parameter.
10.9 Cannot see all documented block attributes
Occasionally new attributes are added to a block definition that were not
defined in an earlier release of OPC90. If you notice a documented block
attribute does not appear when the block is selected it could be a new
attribute. One such attribute is RED_TAG. It was added in OPC90
Version 2.1. Configurations saved prior to version 2.1 did not have this
attribute defined so therefore it does not automatically appear when the
software is upgraded. To make new attributes appear you must export the
configuration using the File->export function, request a new configuration
using File->new and than import the configuration just exported.
10.10 OPC90 Server Will Not Time Sync Bailey
1.) Verify that the Bailey interface device is not a NSPM01 or NCIU01.
These devices do not allow a computer to send time synchronization
commands to Bailey. If the Bailey interface device is one of these
types, disable time synchronization.
2.) Verify that time synchronization has been enabled. This can be found
under the properties of the OPC90 Device
block.
3.) For ABB Bailey Network 90 systems, verify that the node map is
configured correctly for ALL nodes in the system regardless of whether
or not data is being exchanged with any particular node. This can be
found under the properties of the OPC90 Device
block.
