5.1.4 Saving the configuration
When the configuration of the project is finished follow the next steps:
1.
Click the button
Save.
Once accepted the pop-up message, that will save the project
in the folder on hard disk (more information in LinkBoxBacnet Manual).
2.
You will be prompted to generate the configuration file to be sent to the gateway,
a.
If
YES
is selected, the binary file (Modbus.LBOX) containing the configuration
for the gateway will be generated and saved also into the project folder.
b.
If
NO
is selected the binary file needs to be created before following the next
steps. To do so open the Configuration window (section 5.1) and restart from
step 1
3.
A pop-up message will show up asking if you want to
preserve the Object
instance numbers. BE CAREFUL
using this feature.
a.
If
NO
is selected all the object instance numbers for the points will be
automatically reconstructed and thus loosing previous instance numbers, if
defined.
ONLY
USE this option
for a brand new configuration
not
previously running in the gateway and therefore not yet integrated into the
BACnet system
b.
Select
Yes
for configurations
previously running
in the gateway and
already integrated into the BACnet
system
that had been extended with
a few more points that
must respect the previously defined object
instance numbers
. All the points with object instance numbers defined will
be respected. LinkBoxBacnet will automatically assign object instance
numbers to ones without it.
4.
As the final step, a pop-up message will ask if you want to
see the BACnet points list
report, If you select
Yes,
a text file called
Modbus- BACNET OBJECT LIST.TXT
will be
generated and saved into the project folder containing a report of all the point's
BACnet information (for informative purposes at user level). The file will be also
opened in the notepad, it looks like this:
