Collecting data on MS/TP ports
MS/TP statistics running for MS/TP ports are helpful diagnostic tools. The bacnetUtil module provides a Tokens component that allows you to collect data for troubleshooting purposes and to remotely control the health of MstpPorts in a controller. You can add the Tokens component as a child of a controller's BACnet MS/TP port.
Prerequisites:
- In your controller you have expanded
- You have added a MstpPort to your Bacnet network.
Perform the following steps:
- To add the Tokens component, open the bacnetUtil palette, and drag the Tokens component from the palette to the respective MstpPort.
- To view the token properties of interest, unhide them. To do so, right-click the Tokens component under the MstpPort, select , right-click the token property that you want to make visible and select Config Flags from the popup menu.
The Config Flags window opens.
- Deselect the Hidden checkbox and click OK.NOTE: When the
Parse All Propertiesproperty is visible and set totrue, the Tokens component exposes all of the current properties and any that you add in the future.
