Review and finish the wizard
- If you have not already done so, click Next.The wizard displays a summary of all the changes to be made.
- Read through the changes, using the scroll bar to see those steps near the end.
- Do one of the following:
- If any change is needed, click the Back button until the step window appears, make the change, and click Next until this review window opens again.
- When no changes are needed, click Finish to initiate the rest of the Commissioning Wizard.
While the wizard is working, it posts progress updates a Completing Commissioning window.
When completed, the wizard reboots the host controller, and makes a Close button available.
CAUTION: Do not remove power from the controller during this reboot, which may take up to seven or more minutes to complete. Removing power could make the unit unrecoverable. If desired (and convenient), you can use a serial shell connection to the controller to monitor progress as files are installed and the unit is prepared.
If applicable, possible automatic firmware upgrads” to any attached IO-16 or IO-34 modules (NDIO) may occur during this reboot. It is critical that such firmware upgrades complete without interruption—otherwise, IO modules could also be “bricked”.
IO firmware upgrades occur before the platform daemon starts. Therefore, it is safe to interrupt power anytime after you can re-open a platform connection to the controller.
- Click the Close button to exit the wizard.
When the host reboots, your platform connection to it drops. Notice that in the Nav tree, the platform instance for that controller is dimmed
.
- Assuming that you changed the host's IP address in commissioning, right-click and close that platform instance, as this would make that connection instance invalid.
If you did not change its IP address, after several minutes you should be able to double-click the platform instance again to reconnect.
NOTE: Going forward, you must access the host controller by its new (assigned) IP address. YourAlso, you must use the credentials for the new platform user you created (to replace the factory-default platform user), or if you created additional platform users, credentials for one of them.If you changed your PC’s IP address in order to commission the host controller, you usually need to reconfigure your PC’s TCP/IP settings back to appropriate settings (now) to communicate with it. Otherwise, you will be unable to connect to it for other commissioning.
