Philip, Thanks for the script. Will take me a while to check though, with 82 lists. But the ones I checked so far are scanning. How do I interpret the delta change? It looks like an hex value, but once transferred it seems like a strange delta value. Thanks & Rgds, Dirk -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Namens Pulas, Philip Verzonden: dinsdag 17 februari 2015 16:51 Aan: 'foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Onderwerp: Re: [foxboro] Station block parameters - OMSCAN I/A 8.7-ZCP270 Dirk, #2. I'd first verify that all 15 PID's referenced do exist on the workstations being referenced (some may be other CP's). Then, if you'd like to check for errors in any of the lists, I use a script to dump out all of the om objects in a list. It only does one list at time. I have two files for it: a. Enter the following bunch of lines in a text file and change the second line (opvr 001) to include the 3-digit list number, which ensures you get the max list entries: opdb opvr 001 m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr s 1 f s 2 f s 3 f s 4 f s 5 f s 6 f m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr s 0 f s 1 f s 2 f s 3 f s 4 f s 5 f s 6 f m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr s 0 f s 1 f s 2 f s 3 f s 4 f s 5 f s 6 f m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr s 0 f s 1 f s 2 f s 3 f s 4 f s 5 f s 6 f m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr s 0 f s 1 f s 2 f s 3 f s 4 f s 5 f s 6 f m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr s 0 f s 1 f s 2 f s 3 f s 4 f s 5 f s 6 f m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr m opvr s 0 f s 1 f s 2 f s 3 f s 4 f s 5 f s 6 f m opvr m opvr m opvr s 0 f s 1 f s 2 f q b. Enter the following line in another .ksh file, where opvr_SOM_IN_001.txt is the filename from "a" above and opvr_SOM_OUT_001.txt is any output file name: /opt/fox/bin/tools/som -i opvr_SOM_IN_001.txt -t opvr_SOM_OUT_001.txt >/dev/null The output should have all points with a status of SCANNING. Something else (NOT CONNECTED, I think) would indicate an error. There's also a delta field included for each point in the list. Hope that helps.
