    Metasys

    Having a problem commanding all set points on a metasys system. I hit the function key to command the set point but all the system seems to do is allow me to change the point from disable to enable?????

    Operator Terminal to a NCM? Wow, a rare & odd bird.

    To see what you're seeing, you're probably looking at an AD associated to a CS object.

    Once you start having to mess with CS objects and model files..You guys would probably be smart to find somebody that knows how ...to show you the ropes first hand. A novice dinking with models ..has bad news written all over it.

    i have to say its kinda crapy when someone asks for help you want to insult them insted of overing a solution you must be a 4 year

    It was not intended as a insult, but if you took it that way..thats too bad I guess.

    sorry

    Possible software options to adjust setpoints in a DX9100:

    Terminal Emulation
    Project Builder
    M3
    M5
    PMI
    GPL
    MSEA
    LCT
    GX9100
    DX Commissioning
    What ever the heck is used with the FX

    then again there is the DX keypad itself


    Now what other options did I miss?

    DX-9100's have a button on the front panel labeled K.

    This will pull up a list of about 8 analog setpoints plus some digital setpoints.
    IF the tech that programmed the DX-9100 intended for you to be able to change this setpoint he would have mapped it to one of those K values.

    You need the install documentation to tell which one is which but you can change the value from the front panel w the DX-9100's key in place by pressing k key until you have the right parameter in the display then pressing the strange looking e labeled key then the up and down keys to modify the value. Press the e button again to save the change.

    If you have a head end system like a companion or NX30 or something larger then the head end may override your change.
