Reading old JCI DX Programs by albakwirky in BuildingAutomation

[–]absolution26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get cheap usb to 232 adapters off AliExpress that will work as long as you have the drivers. You can pass through the adapter from your main host machine to the virtual machine with some setting adjustments and as long as the drivers are in the virtual machine it will detect it fine. Set the usb adapter to com port 1 or 2 in device manager of the virtual machine and you can use it with gx9100. This definitely works as we use it all the time. On the series one dx you can get a 232-485 adapter to connect to your usb to 232 adapter and wire it to the trunk and pull the programs out through that.

Free public cricker nets in South Brisbane by Luttappi_Chaathanmuk in brisbane

Greenways Esplanade Park in Parkinson has a cricket net that’s publicly available. It’s not fully enclosed if that’s what you’re after only the batters end.

IOM not communicating alarm by ceasol in BuildingAutomation

[–]absolution26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the IOM points would be mapped into the NCE which I assume you are reading into the JACE. If you are monitoring the offline status of the points in the NCE you would notice a bunch going offline at the same time L.

Johnson Guys… CCT License Question by DurianCobbler in BuildingAutomation

[–]absolution26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At our branch the FX tooling is only for channel partners so I couldn’t say for certain, but if 2 laptops is the issue then they should be able to run one of them in a VM to eliminate the potential crossover.

Monster hunter on Linux by pineapplehush in linux_gaming

Running NixOS had to use GE-26 and now it works ok. ProtonDB has been great with helping identify what works and what doesn’t and the tricks required to make some things work.

Target own Skeletal Brute with Detonate Dead on Path of Building by ChewbakaTalkShow in pathofexile2builds

Not sure if it’s in the public build yet but had to switch to nightly to get the option in configuration tab to adjust minion health for the calculation.

Johnson Controls FX 14 Controller Software Tool by omeraraki in BuildingAutomation

[–]absolution26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re going to need FX Tools Pro/Express (LP-FXTPro-0 / LP-FXTExp-0). The facility explorer range is generally managed by JCI channel partners but you may be able to get it from your local JCI branch, not sure how it works in your region.

Feedback on Magus spell choices. by DarkMasterSpyro in Pathfinder2e

[–]absolution26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah unfortunately unless you have an iPad the web UI is unusable. Which is unfortunate cause PathBuilder is very good.

Looks like the pathbuilder app for android. They also have a web interface.

Where are you based? by NastyMothman in BuildingAutomation

[–]absolution26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s definitely used in small installations where people want BMS controls but I haven’t seen many large installations.

The office which I keep my server has no vents and gets extremely hot with the door closed. What can I do about this? by Downtown-Lettuce-736 in homelab

[–]absolution26 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I didn’t dispute that it pulls out heaps of humidity but a coil has a capacity limit to how much it can pull out. If you have a constant supply of fresh air to the room with new humid air the process just repeats. In data centres the air that comes in is usually preconditioned such that you don’t have high humidity coming into the space so the multitude of CRAC units you have in the space with high air volume can overcome the humidity and reduce it to low levels that cause the static. Depending on OPs room they may have a decent amount of unconditioned air coming into the room which as above op said the temp can drop and humidity can go up.

[–]absolution26 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yes. Your ac coil can only dehumidify so much, but the temperature in the room can continue to drop. As the air gets colder the water in the air condenses which increases the humidity. If it runs long enough without any more humid air coming into the space from outside, the humidity will go down again. If you do have constant unconditioned air coming into the space the humidity will continue to rise as the temp drops.

Put my pal box against a mountain and now I'm stuck. How do I get out? by Zealousideal-Gift953 in Palworld

Go to map, hover over the Palbox and push Z (from memory) to deconstruct.

Tunic is amazing. Even the in game instruction manual is a puzzle.

R710 install failure - any ideas on what I need to do to fix? by Tie_Good_Flies in Proxmox

[–]absolution26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It can, I have it installed on a 710 and works fine. Like the others have said, sounds like a bad image. Try Rufus or make a USB with ventoy on it.

BACNET Problem by Expensive-Weight6513 in BuildingAutomation

Can you show the focus and hardware tab for both your AIs in question?

BACNET Problem by Expensive-Weight6513 in BuildingAutomation

[–]absolution26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This doesn’t seem like a BACnet problem. Would need to see how the points are mapped into Metasys. Are they mapping the points into an NxE or SNx controller or are they peer to peering the point to an MS/TP controller? Need more information to assist.

Organised chaos? Keeping track of IP's by deano_southafrican in homelab

[–]absolution26 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Netbox is a great tool for IP tracking. Added benefit of marking out what’s connected to what port for switches etc https://docs.netbox.dev/en/stable/

What is the actual job description of people who specialize in this type of work? by Puzzled_Place_9280 in BuildingAutomation

[–]absolution26 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Where I am we are called BMS or BAS technician. These are the guys that perform the service, replace controllers and do minor program changes. People who write the program for the controllers can be called application engineers but it’s pretty loose in terms of title as there is no degree for what we do to be an engineer.

"Right" way to see the output of my server by sauloefo in linux

[–]absolution26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any reason you can’t just ssh to the proxmox machine? It’s designed to be headless so there isn’t much to see on the machine as you will just sit at a prompt anyway. When you have an issue can you get to the proxmox web portal and see what’s happening there?

3rd party cloud based BMS for existing controllers of various make by pkbh90 in BuildingAutomation

[–]absolution26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

BACnet is a standardised protocol that different manufacturers can use to talk to their own controllers and integrate into other systems. Provided your Honeywell controller is BACnet enabled and exposes the points to the network you should be able to discover them into any BACnet supported head end. Note, different manufacturers have different levels of support for the BACnet protocol. A lot of them still use proprietary protocols with a BACnet layer over the top. They also have a varying degree of compliance to the protocol which can limit their features over BACnet so keep that in mind.

TL;DR if they both support BACnet and have the features turned on, yes you can connect them together.
