The following table lists the commands supported by the engine device object.
|
Command name |
Parameters |
Description |
|---|---|---|
| Activate Changes | Value | Activates the pending attribute changes to
network ports of the network engine. The command activates all
pending changes to all network ports on the engine; individual ports
cannot be activated separately. Also, this command is offered only
when the staging area in the engine has files that are waiting for
activation, which is indicated when the Changes Pending attribute of
one or more integration objects is set to True. After you issue this
command, the Changes Pending attributes of the integration objects
in the engine are set to False. Command options: Update Changes Pending Attributes Except Network Number and
Update All Changes Pending Attributes and
Restart Device. Note: This command is only available for network
engines at Release 11.0 or later.
|
| Apply Staged Files | None | Activates all staged files in the engine.
The command is offered only when the staging area has files for the
selected engine. If code is in staging, the engine switches over to
the re-provisioned, inactive partition. After activation, the
staging area is empty. Note: This command is only available for network
engines at Release 10.1 or later.
|
| Archive | None | Archives the object instances to the nonvolatile memory. |
| Cancel Staged Files | None | Flushes all staged files in the engine. The
command is offered only when the selected engine has staged files.
After you issue this command to cancel the staged files, the Apply
Staged Files command is no longer available until after you issue
another staged download from SCT. Note: This command is only available for network
engines at Release 10.1 or later.
|
| Change Audit Enabled Class Level | Value | Changes the Audit Enabled Class Level attribute. Integer range is 1-4. |
| Rediscover Text Strings | None | Requests the system to rediscover text
strings for some binary and multistate BACnet integrated objects. In
some cases, the Site Director can lose text strings when online
configuration changes are made. When this occurs, the words Text not found appear in the Site Management
Portal, Ready Access Portal, and Advanced Reporting. The following
configuration changes (and other variations) can cause this:
To correct from these situations, issue the Rediscover Text Strings command to the NxE containing the objects that are displaying the errors. Note: After you send this command to a site
director, also send it to all child devices with custom text
strings that include a BACnet Integration.
|
| Reset Device | None | Initiates an orderly reset that saves recent changes to the engine archive database to Flash memory and restarts the engine operating system. When the engine requires a reset, the title bar of the object in the Display panel displays Reset Needed. |
|
Route Samples |
None |
Forwards all trend samples from the engine to the ADS Repository, which is most often the Site Director. Issue this command before you upgrade an engine to ensure that the Site Director has all possible samples. Wait about 5 minutes for all samples to be forwarded. |
| Start Network Packet Capture | Value | This command starts scanning the network, and is only
available when the appropriate signed resource file has been added
to the Engine. This command uses three arguments:
|
| Stop Network Packet Capture | None | This command stops the feature from scanning the network. |
| Update Flash Usage | None | Commands the engine to recalculate the Flash Usage value recorded under the Diagnostic tab of the network engine. This value is an estimated percent of flash memory currently in use. |
