P1 Integration
Enter
E
to enable the P1 FLN port communication and enter
W
to write the enabled state so that it will
still be enabled after any power failure.
Note: To disable the port for any reason, enter E again to toggle from enabled to disabled state.
Find
The gateway Find function enables identification of existing devices on the network, returning their
individual network node addresses and the number of the application running in the device. In
combination with the P1 devices’ application manual, the application number information helps to
decide which points are available in each P1 device, simplifying the creation of the point database of
the gateway.
Enter
F
to start the Find function.
The Find function will automatically poll each possible P1 address to find how many devices are on an
existing network. Each address is polled twice in the event a device does not respond on it’s first
polling. Once devices are identified they will be displayed sequentially in the point database list for
cataloguing by the engineer. Each devices’ active Application # is also identified and displayed.
Below we see P1 address 2 has responded and it’s application is #162.
Consequently it is temporarily displayed under the HPE-BNP1BUS point 4 listing, including the
application number.
Any other discovered devices would be listed sequentially, from point 5 onwards as temporary holding
points.
