Detailed Procedures
These procedures show how to add field devices using an archive database or Discovery, add N2 points, and create
extensions to an object.
Adding N2 Integrations
The two N2 trunks (N2A and N2B) are part of the default NAE database, and you only need to Select N2 Trunk
(integration) from the Navigation Tree. You need to Add an N2 trunk only if one or both N2 trunks have been deleted
from the default database.
To add N2 integrations:
1. On the Insert menu, click Integration. The Insert Integration Wizard starts (Figure 1).
2. Follow the prompts to configure the integration using Table 4.
1 When selecting or adding a second N2 trunk, you must change the default trunk number (which is 1) on the Hardware
tab to 2.
3. Click Finish.
2. Select the trunk where you want to insert the device and click Next. The Insert Field Device Wizard Select
Definition screen appears (Figure 3).
3. On the Select Definition Mode screen, select the Manual device definition radio button.
Note: When using the SCT, the Assisted device definition radio button appears dimmed because that method
is unavailable when the system is offline.
4. Select the type of device and an N2 address for the device you are creating. All N2 addresses in the drop-down
combo box are valid N2 addresses because the list is updated each time a new controller object is created. After
choosing an N2 address, click Next. Auto Discovery is only available online for field devices. See the Adding N2
Field Devices Online Using Auto Discovery section in this document.
5. Click Next. The Insert Field Device Wizard Identifier screen appears (Figure 4).
6. Choose a unique name (within the parent object) for the new controller object and click Next. The Insert Field
Device Wizard Configure screen appears (Figure 5).
The fields of the Configure screen have default data based on the previous information entered. This information
includes the object type and naming parameters of the new controller being created. When you use the Manual
Device Definition, the default name is always the controller type (for example, Air Handling Unit (AHU), , or VMA)
plus an incremental number. The incremental number ensures that the suggested name is unique within the
context of the parent object, in this case an N2 integration.
7. Click Next. The Insert Field Device Wizard Summary screen appears (Figure 6).
8. If you are satisfied with the Summary, click Finish (otherwise click Back and correct any problems).
The object is created, and you are given the opportunity to add extensions to the new controller object. See the
Adding Extensions to an Object section in this document for more information.
3. Click the Invoke Auto Discovery button. The Auto Detect Utility starts (Figure 8).
4. Select the device you want to map. If the device is already mapped, you are notified. If the device is not mapped,
the Insert Field Device Identifier screen appears (Figure 4).
5. Enter a unique identifier for the device. The Insert Field Device Wizard Configure screen appears (Figure 5).
6. Click Next. The Insert Field Device Summary screen appears (Figure 6).
7. If you are satisfied with the Summary, click Finish (otherwise click Back and correct any problems). The object
is created and you are given the opportunity to add extensions to the new controller object. See the Adding
Extensions to an Object section in this document for more information.
8. When you have added all discovered devices, use the SCT to upload the NAE database to an archive database
in the SCT.
3. Click the New button in the row next to the type of extension you want to add, and follow the prompts on the
Wizard that appears. See the Adding a Resource File Extension, Adding a Totalization Extension, or Adding an
Alarm Extension sections in this document for more information.
4. Follow the prompts to configure the extension and click Finish when you are done. The Extension Wizard appears
with the new extension listed in the appropriate row (Figure 10).
5. Click the Done button when you are finished adding extensions. If the Extension Wizard launched automatically
after creating a new field device object, the Field Device Extension screen opens (Figure 11).
6. Add field points under the newly created controller object by selecting the New button in the Field Points panel
of the Field Device Extension Wizard. See the Adding N2 Field Devices Manually (Online or Offline) section for
instructions on adding N2 points.
2. Click the Browse button and locate the resource file to import to the object. The default file type is based upon
the file type expected for the parent-controller object. For example, for a UNT controller, the default file type is
.prn. After you select a file, the Wizard validates the file based on the controller type of the newly created object.
If the selected file does not appear to be correct for the controller, a red error message appears in the user text
area of the Resource File Wizard showing the expected controller type from within the selected file.
3. After you select a valid import file, click Next. The Insert Resource Wizard Configure screen appears.
The description property shows the original file location and file name of the selected import file as reference.
The converted XML file based on the selected file is not accessible to the user.
4. If the Configure screen looks correct, click Next. The Insert Resource Wizard Summary screen appears.
5. Click Finish. The Extensions Wizard appears with the new Resource File listed under Resource Files.
2. Select an attribute and follow the prompts in the Wizard to complete the addition of a Trend Extension.
3. Click Finish. The Extensions Wizard appears with the new attribute listed under Trend.
2. Select an object in the top of the screen and an attribute in the bottom and click Next.
Note: Click other to display a list of available attributes.
3. Select Totalization type from the available radio buttons on the right (if available).
4. Follow the prompts in the Wizard to complete the addition of a Totalization Extension.
5. Click Finish. The Extensions Wizard appears with the new attribute listed under Totalization.
2. Select an object you want to add the Alarm extension to in the top of the screen and an attribute in the bottom
and click Next.
Note: Click other to display a list of available attributes.
3. Follow the prompts in the Wizard to complete the addition of an Alarm Extension.
4. Click Finish. The Extensions Wizard appears with the new attribute listed under Alarm.
2. Select an object you want to add the Averaging extension to at the top of the screen and an attribute at the
bottom. Click Next.
Note: Click other to display a list of available attributes.
3. Follow the prompts in the Wizard to complete the addition of an Averaging Extension.
4. Click Finish. The Extensions Wizard appears with the new attribute listed under Averaging.
3. Select the check boxes next to the extensions you want to delete.
4. Click Delete for each extension.
When you click the Delete button in any extension row, it only deletes the checked extensions in that row. For
example, you have to click both the Totalization delete button and the Averaging delete button to delete both
checked extensions. See Figure 17.
5. Click Done when finished.
2. Choose a controller or folder in which to insert the new field points and click Next. The Insert Point Wizard Select
Definition Mode screen appears (Figure 20).
Note: There are two methods of adding field points in the SCT and online UI. If you have created a Resource
File extension for the field device to which you are adding points, then Assisted mode definition is available.
Otherwise, the Assisted button is grayed out and your only choice for adding field points is manual mode.
Depending on which mode you are using, see the Adding Field Points Using Assisted Mode Definition
or Adding Field Points Using Manual Mode Definition sections in this document.
3. Select individual points to map by double-clicking them, or click the Map All button to map all available points
from the file. Each point that is mapped appears in the Points to Map Summary panel on the right and is also
marked with a green check mark to show that it is a mapped point (Figure 22).
Note: In the Point Mapping Utility, you can edit information about individual points in the Points to Map Summary
panel. You can also un-map individual points by double-clicking the point in the middle panel or clicking
the Unmap All button. Selecting a folder in the middle panel displays the points mapped from that folder
in the Points to Map Summary panel, whereas selecting the field device in the middle panel displays a
summary of all points mapped to that device in the Points to Map Summary panel.
4. Click Next when you have mapped all desired points. The Insert Point Wizard Summary screen appears (Figure
22).
5. If you are satisfied with the Summary, click Finish (otherwise, click the Back button and edit as needed.).
2. Select the type of point that you want to add and click Next. The point information on the Select Data Source
screen is pre-configured, based on the object type selected in the Select Definition Mode screen; however, on
the Select Data Source screen you can edit some properties of the point that cannot be edited in the Configure
screen. Depending on how many points of each type were added to a controller, the values available in the
drop-down boxes change so your available selections are valid. The Insert Point Wizard Select Data Source
screen appears (Figure 25).
3. Edit the point properties as necessary and click Next. The Insert Point Wizard Identifier screen appears (Figure
26).
4. Enter a unique name for the new field point. The default name is based on the object type of the new field point.
5. Click Next. The Insert Point Wizard Configure screen appears (Figure 27).
6. Review the Configuration and Hardware tabs. Edit if necessary and click Next. The Insert Point Wizard Summary
screen appears (Figure 28). Properties edited in the Manual Point Data Source page are not editable in the
normal Configuration view of the object.
Note: The object type and naming parameters of the new point appear in the Insert Point Wizard Summary
screen. When you click Finish, the object is created and you are prompted to add extensions to the new
point object through the Extension Wizard.
7. Click Finish. Otherwise, click the Back button and edit as needed.
