Any word on when JCI may be coming out with 3.2 or later??

I bet if he tried it that the station wouldn't open or license. Sounds like a big mess waiting to happen to me.

patsy, did 3.2 resolve your issues with FX40?

Just a FX40, no devices,,hmmmmm...

Try logging in through explorer to your IP 000.000.000.000:3011/QNX and see if those logs provide any insight.

Bizarre for sure, keep us apprised should you find resolution.

it's not log or history related, after it rebbots the memory climbs back to normal level!

No LON devices on that job only N2 and we dont even have the actual N2 devices wired to all the FX-40 and still the memory goes down even on those without the N2 devices pluged in (we are creating the points offline and preparing the FX-40 station before we actually switch from NCU to FX-40)

... yeah but what?? I'm hopping that the upgrade to 3.2 will solve that issue: we are still in test so I will keep you posted on the result

Patsy, I think they have recommended turning the autosbogsave from 3 to 1. We have turned ours all to 0, and the mystery reboots/lockups have ceased.

Like maybe 5 min for default and 30 seconds or so, for things running logic in the Jace/supply air temps, etc.

History intervals???

There are no Lon devices on those FX-40, only N2 devices!!

More read/write errors then memory issues, tons of lost messages, etc. on the 40'S

Although on the 40's I do notice my used heap always exceeds the 75% mark, more like 98%... no matter how many devices on the bus.

Sounds like yours is going out on a watch dog timeout ??

Were you having problem with the FX-40's memory? We have a job where the FX-40's resets for now reasons. We trended the memory of the FX-40's with a AX Aupervisor to see that it was slowly going down to a point were the station could'nt save itself and then rebooted! JCI could'nt find anything wrong. We the received 2 new FX-40 with 3.2 licence in them and for some reason the memory leak seems to have vanish. We have put those 2 FX-40 on close supervision and are waithing for the final result in a couple of weeks to make sure the memory problem is resolved.

Maybe thats why JCI is licensing their FX-40's with 3.2 licences so they can take advantage of some fix when needed?

Rumors are early next year for 3.2 and other JACE options.

So, anyone know why JCI Jaces are coming out with 3.2 licenses then??

I just ripped out an FX40 and replaced with it with a Honeywell 3.2 Jace, just to make sure nothing bad happened.

btw,,, that resolved my troublesome FX LON job

In that case I wouldnt gamble on it.

Once you go 3.2 you cant go back

I would be careful trying that. Sure the JACE itself would probably upgrade fine, but the opening the Existing Station database could be a problem. I would try this with caution and with all backups and 3.0.106 close by.

I just used the Fx-40 like any Jace403. When you upgrade a FX-40, the licences stays the same so the FX-40 is still from JCI and the licence reflects that.

To upgrade any Jace to 3.2 you just need a pc with a Workbench in 3.2 and that the jace you are upgrading has a valid 3.2 licence in it.

If you bought your Workbench via JCI, you probalbly don't have version 3.2 so you wont be able to upgrade.
