NW3000 Setup
3.1.1 Automatically Start OpenBSI
If checked, then OpenBSI will be started automatically when the NW3000 driver starts. If this box is
checked, then you must create and set the following values on the OpenEnterprise\Tasks\RDI3000
key in the Settings Editor.
Name Description
EnableBSAUTO Set to 1 to use BSAUTO to start OpenBSI. Used in
conjunction with BSAUTOFormatString.
When set to 0, the BSIStartSys API call will be
used to start OpenBSI.
Default value is 0.
BSAUTOFormatString The format string used as the BSAUTO command
line.
Default value is "BSAUTO -std SYSTEM SYSTEM
%s" where %s represents the NDF filename
specified within the nw3000driver. obsistartndf
attribute.
3.1.2 Automatically Stop OpenBSI
If checked, then OpenBSI will be stopped automatically when the NW3000 driver stops.
3.1.3 Network Definition File
This is the Network Definition File used by OpenBSI to define the network of Bristol devices. It has an
extension of .NDF, is usually named 'Current.ndf' and by default resides within the 'C:\Accol'
directory. Use the browse button to locate the correct file. Once selected, the file's full pathname will
be placed into the Network Definition File text field.
3.1.4 Number of seconds between subsequent start attempts
This is the number of seconds the NW3000 driver will wait between failed attempts to start OpenBSI.
The default value is sixty seconds. This can be changed by typing another value directly into the field
or using the buttons provided.
3.1.5 Number of times to retry OpenBSI start-up
The number of times the NW3000 driver will retry starting OpenBSI, should startup fail. Defaults to
zero (0). This can be changed by typing an new value into the field or using the buttons provided.
3.1.6 Cancel Button

3.1.7 Help Button
Selection of this button will display the help topic for this dialog.
3.2 Message Buffers
The Message Buffers dialog enables the user to configure the maximum number of pending requests
for the system as a whole and per device.
3.2.1 Maximum total number of pending requests
The default value is zero (0), in which case the NW3000 Driver will accept the pending message
request buffers settings configured within OpenBSI. It should not be set to more than that set by
OpenBSI.
If the default value is not chosen, the selected maximum number of pending requests should be less
than the total number available within OpenBSI. The value chosen should not be so high that it could
adversely affect other OpenBSI clients or cause excessive network loading.

NW3000 Setup
3.2.2 Maximum number of pending requests per device
Specifies the maximum number of pending requests that a device can have at any one time. The
default value is 5. When changing the value the following points should be taken into account:-
1. The value should be significantly less than the number of message buffers allocated within
the device.
2. The nature of the network communications between the Server and the devices. A single
serial link would, for instance, indicate a lower buffer value than a 100BaseT IP network link.
3. The number of devices and network levels used. More devices and network levels would
indicate a lower pending request buffer number per device.
3.3 Device Health Checking
The Device Health Checking dialog enables the user to configure how devices are checked for health
and data collection status.
- 6 -
Reference Guide
D301509X412
April 2012
NW3000 Setup
3.3.1 Number of seconds between device health checks
Default is 60 seconds. This figure controls the frequency of device health checks. It may need to be
made larger if there are a lot of devices and more than one level in the network that links the devices,
or the number of devices to check per time may need to be made smaller.
3.3.2 Number of devices per health check
This is the number of devices to check within the time period allowed. On large telemetry systems it
may be beneficial to set this number to check a smaller number of devices during the health check
period.
For instance, if there were 120 devices, and a health check period of 60 seconds, the Server could be
configured to check 30 devices per health check, rather than doing them all within one health check
period. In such an example all devices would receive a health check every four minutes.
3.3.3 Number of consecutive failures allowed
The number of consecutive communications failures to a particular device before it is declared offline.
The time taken for this to happen will depend on the communications loading and freque ncy between
the Server and the device.
3.4 Remote Alarm Support
The Remote Alarm Support dialog enables the user to switch on Remote Alarm Support, and to select
priorities for which users must acknowledge 'Return-to-Normal' reports. By default, Return-to-Normal
alarm reports do not require user acknowledgement.

If checked, this option will ensure that device system signals are included in the database build.
Enables RTU names with mixed upper and lower case characters to be defined (e.g. Memphis,
Area1) when adding devices and signals into the OpenEnterpriseObjectServer database. By default,
all RTU names are converted to uppercase in the database (e.g. MEMPHIS, AREA1).
- 14 -
Reference Guide
D301509X412
April 2012
If a build occurs for an RTU with mixed case characters without this option checked, the RTU name
will be inserted into the database in upper case characters, and all its signals will be preceded and
identified by the uppercase RTU name followed by a colon (e.g. MEMPHIS:PUMP1.RUNNING.001).
If a subsequent build for the same RTU occurs, but with this option checked, the NW3000 Dat abase
Builder will ask for confirmation before inserting the device and its signals into the database.
This time, the mixed case name will be used. The previous entries for the same device and its signals
with the capitalized name will NOT be deleted from the database. However, the NW3000 Database
Builder will only now recognize the capitalized name for the RTU.

When selected, ControlWave signal names will be converted to ACCOL signal name form at (i.e.
<BASE>.<EXTENSION>.<ATTRIBUTE>).
When checked, the NW3000 Database Builder will use the 'Variable Extension Wizard' settings from
the ControlWave load to determine alarm signals for ControlWave RTUs.
The default setting is for this and the 'Look for _ALM in name' option to be unchecked. This causes
the NW3000 Database Builder to mark all signals as alarms.
NW3000 Setup
When checked, the NW3000 Database Builder will look for signals with names that contain '_ALM' to
determine alarm signals for ControlWave RTUs.
The default setting is for this and the 'Use variable extension wizard' option to be unchecked. This
causes the NW3000 Database Builder to mark all signals as alarms.

When checked, the 'RBE Settings' section of this dialog will become enabled. The user is then able to
specify RBE settings for the selected device(s). These will then override any RBE settings co nfigured
at the device, or the default settings created for the device.
If the RBE Module mode at the device is set to 1, then the RBE parameters assigned locally to the
module define the the RBE collection for the device.
If the RBE Module mode at the device is set to 0, then the values configured via this dialog are used
to define the RBE collection. The user should check that the defaults supplied by Server are suitable
for the application.
NW3000 Setup
4.2.2 Enable RBE Data Collection for Device
When checked, RBE data collection will be enabled for the selected device(s).
4.2.3 Scan Rate
The scan rate is the rate at which the RBE signals are checked to determine whether any exceptions
have occured. The value is in tenths of a second and may range from 1.0 (0.1) seconds to 65535.0
(6553.5) seconds.
Note: If the scan rate is small (too fast) it may cause scanning to occur continuously. This may
interfere with other application load tasks. If thgis occurs then consider increasing the scan rate value
along with using scan slice.
4.2.4 Scan Slice
This value is used to divide the RBE scanning and reporting process into a number of equal time
periods or slices. This RBE paremeter is normally used when RBE activity at the device is interfering
with any other application tasks.
The value can range from 1 to the value of the 'ScanRate' field. If this value is set to 1 or 0, then
slicing is inactive. It is normally set to 1 unless RBE is causing performance related problems.
4.2.5 Timeout
The timeout period, in tenths of a second, between the device informing the server that an RBE
initialise is required or the RBE Task is going active. Specified as a count of 0.1 seconds. The valid
range for this field is any integer between 300 (30.0 seconds) and 65535 (6553.5 seconds).
- 21 -
Reference Guide
D301509X412
April 2012
NW3000 Setup
4.2.6 StopXmit
This parameter is used by the RBE task within the device as a limit to temporarily stop sending
Exception Report Messages (ERM's).
It refers to the difference between the current Report Sequence Number (RSN) and the RSN in the
last Report Acknowledged (REPORT_ACK) message from the RBE Manager.
When this difference exceeds the 'StopXmit' value, the RBE task suspends the scan process and
waits for a valid REPORT_ACK where the RSN difference drops lower than the value specified in this
field. The valid range for this field is an integer between 0 (no suspension of ERM's), and 127.
4.3 Polling Support
The Polling Support dialog enables the user to configure scheduled data collection for the selected
device(s).
- 22 -
Reference Guide
D301509X412

4.3.1 Use Settings Here for Polling Support
When checked, the 'Polling Frequency' section will become enabled and scheduled data collection
can be configured for each device.
Having a unique schedule for each device will make it easier to adjust and fine tune data collection.
When the wizard has completed, templates (poll lists) are created for each device.
4.3.2 Create a Unique Timeclass for each Device
When checked a unique timeclass for each of the selected devices will be created. This will enable
the device to be polled at scheduled intervals.
4.3.3 Polling Frequency
The background polling frequency in seconds for each device.
4.4 Device Setup Summary
This is the final dialog of the 'Device Set-up' wizard. It enables the user to view a summary of the
