SCT diagnostic reports are available to improve setup and commissioning time. The Archive Statistics report quickly shows how each NxE’s resources have been used by way of number and type of objects. The Unbound References report identifies instances where one object references a nonexistent object. Diagnostics help you discover problems with your Metasys system. The following areas have diagnostic information available:
-
Hardware (found under the Diagnostic tab of an object)
-
N2, N1, and BACnet trunk statistics or other integration type statistics
-
NAE and NxE (all engine types) statistics
- Metasys server communication statistics
- Field device statistics
- BACnet Protocol Engine statistics per NxE
- Ethernet IP Datalink statistics per NxE
-
-
Software
-
error logs viewed through Audit Trails.
-
unbound/duplicate references (Engine Device Object)
-
events viewed through information
-
trends viewed through Trend Studies and Trend Extensions

For Ethernet statistics and task-utilization data, use off-the-shelf diagnostic tools. Refer to the manuals shipped with these tools for more information.
