Troubleshooting and Frequently Asked Questions
How do I install a USB-8486, PCMCIA-FBUS, PCMCIA-FBUS Series 2, or PCI-FBUS/2 interface board?
Install the NI-FBUS Software and then shut down the PC. Follow the Getting Started Manual to install the Fieldbus hardware. Boot up the PC and Windows recognizes the NI-FBUS interface card automatically. Follow the Found New Hardware Wizard and install the driver for the new hardware.
Run the Interface Configurator Utility, which will show the USB/PCI/PCMCIA interface after you install the driver.
Open the NI-FBUS Communications Manager to begin working with the newly-configured hardware.
When do I need to activate the NI-FBUS Configurator 4.1.1 and Monitor 4.0.2?
When launching Configurator 4.1.1 or Monitor 4.0.2, an activation request dialog box prompts you to activate the product. You also can activate these components later using the NI License Manager, available by selecting Start»Programs»National Instruments»NI License Manager.
You must activate the NI-FBUS Configurator before you can use the following features:
You do not have to activate the NI-FBUS Configurator in the following situations:
Install the drivers for the the NI-FBUS interface devices
Use Communications Manager APIs to build your own applications
Evaluate the NI-FBUS Configurator in offline mode
H1 interfaces (PCMCIA-FBUS, PCI-FBUS and USB-8486) and HSE interfaces (Ethernet and HSE Linking Device)
Ethernet and High-Speed-Ethernet (HSE) Linking Device in the Add Interface Wizard, Interface Configuration Utility, and Communications Manager
How do I activate the NI-FBUS Configurator and Monitor?
You can acquire the activation code from National Instruments through the Internet, telephone, or fax. Apply the activation code. Refer to the National Instruments License Manager Help, available by selecting Help»Contents in the NI License Manager, for more information about activating National Instruments software.
Do not remove the Ethernet adapter from the computer after you activate the NI-FBUS Configurator. Removing the Ethernet adapter might deactivate the NI-FBUS Configurator.
How does NI-FBUS Communications Manager support Device Descriptions (DD)?
NI-FBUS software uses manufacturer-supplied device descriptions. To use a new Device Description (DD), you must first specify a "Base Directory" for your device descriptions. This directory can be anywhere on your computer. All your DD files are in this directory.
After completing the previous steps, you can see the base directory of the NI-FBUS software. You can import your manufacturer-supplied DD files into this directory.NI-FBUS software uses identifying information in the actual device to locate the DD for this device. The identifying information includes four resource block parameters: "MANUFAC_ID", "DEV_TYPE", "DEV_REV", and "DD_REV". If the identifying information is incorrect, NI-FBUS will not be able to locate the DD for the device. When it has located the DD, NI-FBUS matches the block types in the DD with the actual blocks in the device by using the Item ID of the block characteristics record. Once again, if this information is incorrect, NI-FBUS will not be able to locate the description of that particular block.
Launch NI-FBUS the Interface Configuration Utility and click Import DD/CFF.
Click Browse to locate the DD/CFF file or input the path.
Click OK.
The Interface Configuration Utility checks the DD/CFF files. If no error is detected, the .cff file, .ffo file, and the associated .sym file are copied to the correct location in the base directory; otherwise, an error message will help you to locate the error.
Launch the NI-FBUS Interface Configuration Utility and click Import DD/CFF.
Click DD Info.
Click Browse to locate the base directory path, or manually input the whole path for this directory, such as C:Program FilesNational InstrumentsNI-FBUSDD.
Troubleshooting — Setting Addresses
If you have trouble setting the address of your device, you may need to change some of the "System Management Info" parameters in the Advanced settings of your interface port in the Interface Configuration Utility. The parameters involved in setting addresses are T1 and T3. These parameters represent delay time values that your interface card uses to compensate for the delays inherent in the device and in the set address protocol itself.
T1 is a parameter that describes the expected response delay of the device at a given address. Normally, you will not need to increase this parameter; however, if it appears that your interface card is not seeing the device's responses related to setting an address, you can increase this value. The correct value for this parameter can be dependent on the number of devices on the link. For example, if you are using a bus monitor, you might see a WHO_HAS_PD_TAG request going to the device to start the Set Address sequence, and an IDENTIFY response coming back, but with the host never continuing with the next step in the protocol, the SET_ADDRESS packet. This would probably mean that your T1 value is too small and should be increased.
T3 is a parameter that describes the expected time for the device to respond at its new address. This parameter is highly dependent on the number of devices on the link and the number of addresses being polled (see "Setting the Number of Polled Addresses" below for instructions). If you are using a bus monitor, you may be able to see the host identify a device (with the IDENTIFY packet) at the new address BEFORE the device has sent its probe response (PR) packet to the host. This is an error that is indicative of a T3 value that is too small. If this occurs, increase your T3 value until the IDENTIFY packet to the new address occurs after the PR.
All of the System Management Info timers are in units of 1/32 of a millisecond; for instance, T3=32000 units means that T3=1 second.
Troubleshooting — Setting the Number of Polled Addresses
The Fieldbus Specification describes how a Link Active Scheduler device (LAS device) probes a list of addresses to allow devices to come online during normal operation. The LAS sends a Probe Node (PN on the bus monitor) packet to each address in its list of addresses during operation at a regular interval determined by the number of devices on the link and the value of the Link Maintenance Token Hold Time parameter. The Fieldbus Specification describes how to tell the LAS to avoid probing certain addresses in the range, which can speed up detection of new devices on the bus (or devices that are having their addresses changed). The two parameters involved in maintaining the list are called FirstUnpolledNode and NumOfUnpolledNodes, and they can be found in the NI-FBUS Interface Configuration utility advanced settings for a port, under the "DLME Master Info" section. The following diagram shows how the LAS determines the list:
PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXPPPPPPPPPP
| |<--NumOfUnpolledNodes-->| |
0x10 (16) FirstUnpolledNode 0xf7 (247)
P = address that is probed for new devices
X = address that is never probed for new devices
To summarize, FirstUnpolledNode tells the LAS the starting address of a section of addresses to skip, and NumOfUnpolledNodes tells the LAS the length of that region. So if FirstUnpolledNode was 0x25, and NumOfUnpolledNodes was 0xba, then none of the addresses from 0x25 to 0xdf would be probed. That means that if a device with an address of 0x25 was placed on this bus, the LAS would not probe it and it would never be able to send or receive packets on the bus.
The main reason to have a NumOfUnpolledNodes with a nonzero value is this: The LAS probes every address in the list, and then starts over again at the beginning. Remember that a device cannot become active on the bus until its address is probed. If the LAS is probing all 255-16+1=240 possible addresses and each probe node request goes out every T milliseconds, it might take 240T milliseconds for a device to come online. If, however, the LAS probed only the first 16 addresses and the last 16 addresses, it might take 32T milliseconds for the device to come online; this results in the new device being recognized almost 8 times faster. These parameters also affect the Set Address protocol, because recognizing a device at a new address is really the same as recognizing a completely new device, since the new address must be probed for the device to come online. In this way, the NumOfUnpolledNodes parameter can affect the value of the Set Address protocol parameter "T3", which is described in the section above. Increasing the NumOfUnpolledNodes parameter might fix a SetAddress T3 problem because it takes the device less time to be recognized at the new address.
Known Issues and Suggestions
For devices with a third-party stack, the NI-FBUS Configurator might take a long time to update device information such as Function Block list, MIB parameters, and so on. The reason is that when a device with a Softing stack has a higher address, like 0xE0 or 0xF6, the NI-FBUS Communications Manager is hard to obtain a valid VCR connection to the MIB of the devices. You can solve the problem by changing the address of the device to a lower one when the Configurator finishes updating the device.
The following table contains the ID and title of the known issues in NI-FBUS Software.
| Issue ID | Known Issue |
| 219594 | Issue - Only one USB-8486 is left in Configurator when the system with mulitple USB-8486 connected is recovered from hibernation (Windows Vista or above) Description - When the system with mulitple USB-8486 connected is recovered from hibernation, the log in Communications Manager shows that all the interfaces are reinitialized automatically. But when you use Take Online in Configurator, only one USB-8486 is left in the list. This issue only occurs on Windows Vista or above system. Workaround - Restart Communications Manager and Configurator after the system is recovered from hibernation. |
| 171893 | Issue - NI-FBUS does not support dynamic display image feature in EDDL Description - The dynamic attribute of the image in EDDL is not supported. Configurator shows these images statically. Workaround - N/A |
| 89744 | Issue - Communications Manager can not initialize the HSE/H1 linking device if one of the link IDs is equal to or greater than 0xF0FF Description - If one of the link IDs on the HSE/H1 linking device is equal to or greater than 0xF0FF, Communications Manager can not start successfully. Error occurs when initializing the HSE/H1 linking device. Workaround - Use the default ID. Do not set the ID to the value which is equal to or greater than 0xF0FF. |
