LOL Digo. It could be worse, we could still be doing SymmetrE jobs.

I didnt think I was the only one having problems with these.

You could also get an SLTA-10 adapter, a quick google search found several for $75.00

You are correct, the LonSpec driver only supports the serial or PCC-10 connections to the LON bus. If your laptop has a PCMCIA slot you can get Lon card and cable
(Honeywell part Q7752B2009) and use...

I can write to the writable points. I will email you the list.

Sure, just send me an email.

I just did some a few weeks ago. You should be able to communicate via modbus with the factory boards in the units. Also, your data map looks different than mine.

I have not used the Addme III but I have used the Addme II. One thing I don't like is that you have to power the controller on it's own dedicated source. I did figure out that I could configure them...

I have them failing after they have been in awhile. We are not manually moving them.

Has anyone had high failure rates with the MN7505A actuators?

It's funny you say that, because we had a standing rule that we did not work on SymmetrE on Fridays.

Amen Brother!

I dealt with SymmetrE for years before we went to Honeywell Webs. EBI has it's place as a total solution as far as HVAC, Security and Fire Alarms, but beyond that it leaves a lot to be desired. As...

I will try to send you something later today.

Just to clarify, when I said to note that he says never to use a reset or ratio on the PID he is referring to reseting the full output -200 to +200 to 0-100%

I have a VVT app for Boxes and RTU that was done by Hutchey but not released publicly. I had to fix a problem in the economizer logic for the RTU if I remember right but it worked pretty well.

Here is some helpful info on Spyder PIDs from John Hutchey. Note that he says to never reset or use a ratio on the output of the PID.

There is a lot of misconception about the Spyder’s PID loop,...

It just depends on what my PID is controlling. On something like space temp control I would have a TR of around 3-5 and a high Integral around 2500. For something like CFM control I usually start by...

This is what I do. I only use PI. I start out with no integral and a high throttling range. If it settles out I cut in half and wait to see if it settles out. I continue this process until it is not...

I don't think it is in shell mode. I had this same problem before and never figured out what caused it. I assumed it was something network related since it cleared on it's own.

Have you looked at the help doc? There is a pretty good example in there. If not hit ctrl + L in workbench and paste this in.

I just tied 3 York RTU's in to a 600 via modbus after having replaced the Simplicity gateways 3 times in less than a year. There is another big post on hear about the issues with these gateways. I...

I will be ther Monday.

I noticed this issue back in 2010 and sent it in to the Honeywell Engineers. Here is there response.

After investigating we came to know that it is an expected output according to the design and...

I don't know of anyway to do that, but you could increase the ping frequency up from the default of 5 minutes.
