Simplex 4010 NION Installation/Operation Manual Version 2 Document 51998 Rev. A1 03/26/03
Upload NION Configuration
- This option creates a file on the hard drive containing all the information stored
at the NION. This is useful to have for trouble shooting, general NION maintenance or for a backup. This file is
named
simplex4010_node_
XXX
.ndb
and is copied to the
C:\UniNet\Plugins\Data
directory on the Worksta-
tion computer.
Suppressing Psuedo Points
The Simplex 4010 panel reports events called
psuedo points, which are used to annunciate
certain panel states or events. These are not alarm
or trouble events on any real devices and as such
are by default suppressed by the Simplex NION to
keep network traffic minimized. However, these
points may be reported to the workstation if the
Suppress Psuedo Points box is unchecked. This is
done by selecting the
NION Configuration
option
from the Panels tree of Simplex Explorer and
unchecking the
Suppress Psuedo Points
box in the
data display. See figure 3-6.
UL Functionality
This option will be displayed only if the current operator is logged in as an administrator. This option must always
be checked for UL applications. The Simplex 4010 NION is for ancillary use only and will report events to a
UniNet™ 2000 Workstation with an -ANC suffix. Any ancillary alarm or trouble event sent to the UniNet™ 2000
workstation is not a primary event and will therefore be displayed in the Events box under any primary events. The
following event types are sent by the Simplex 4010 NION when UL Functionality is applied. These are ancillary
versions of the original primary event types.
Enabled-Anc
Disabled-Anc
Trouble-Anc
Tbloff-Anc
Silenced-Anc
Unsilenced-Anc
Alarm-Anc
AlmOff-Anc
ManEvac-Anc
ManEvacOff-Anc
Figure 3-5: Data Capture Mode
NOTE: While in
Data Capture Mode,
no events will be
sent to the UniNet™
Workstation.
NOTE: The NION
requestes the
Revision (REV) from
the panel every 15
seconds. This is
used to monitor the
connection and is
normal.
