To review and finish the Commissioning Wizard
After the final selected step in the Commissioning Wizard, a “Review of changes” dialog appears, as shown in Figure 20. It lists a summary of all the actions to be performed by the wizard.
Before proceeding:
-
Read through the summary of changes, using the scroll bar to see those steps near the end.
-
If no change is needed, click the button to initiate the rest of the Commissioning Wizard.
-
If any change is needed, click the button until the step dialog appears, then make the change. Then, click the button until this review dialog appears again.
-
-
While the wizard is working, progress updates are posted in a “Completing Commissioning” dialog. When completed, the wizard reboots the JACE, and a “” button is available (Figure 21).
Do not remove power to the JACE controller immediately following any commissioning reboot. Extra run time may be needed, especially
if there are IO-16 or IO-34 modules attached, for up to 4 minutes. This precaution allows any “automatic firmware upgrade”
of the IO modules to succeed, without interruption. Note this IO firmware upgrade occurs before the platform daemon starts in the JACE controller. Therefore, it is safe to interrupt power anytime after you can successfully
re-open a platform connection to the JACE. Alternatively, you can monitor the serial shell of the JACE following the reboot,
to monitor messages that indicate the status of the firmware download to each of the attached NDIO modules.
-
Click the button to exit the wizard.
When the JACE reboots, your platform connection to it drops. Notice that in the Nav tree, the platform instance for that JACE is now dimmed
.
-
Assuming that you changed the JACE’s IP address in commissioning, right-click and close that platform instance (Figure 22), as this would make that connection instance invalid.
If you did not change its IP address, after a minute or so you should be able to double-click the platform instance again to reconnect.
Going forward, you must access the JACE by its new (assigned) IP address. Note that your Workbench keeps a history of TCP/IP
changes made. See IP changes history. Also, remember to login using its new assigned platform credentials, see Platform daemon authentication.
If you changed your PC’s IP address in order to commission the JACE, you usually need to reconfigure your PC’s TCP/IP settings
back to appropriate settings (now) to communicate with it. Otherwise, you will be unable to connect to it for other commissioning.
