Sensor display in the BGS and BGT

Created by Jean-Claude Hirzel, Modified on Wed, 25 Mar at 6:49 AM by Jean-Claude Hirzel

Problem



In certain system configurations, the BGS or BGT operator terminals may list sensors on the "Meteo" page that are not configured (with sensor type "T:255" and sensor value "unknown telegram").

The operator terminal lists all sensors whose type is not coded as 0. FlexTool sets the sensor type to 0 only when a sensor is turned off (but not if it was already turned off in an imported project file).


Workaround



1) In FlexTool, select a sensor that the operator terminal displays even though it is set to "Off" in FlexTool.
2) Switch from the "Off" setting to another setting, confirm, and immediately switch back to "Off".
3) Save the project and load the configuration onto the operator terminal.
=> With this procedure, FlexTool resets the type of all sensors set to "Off" to the defined value 0; afterward, as expected, none of these sensors will appear in the list on the operator terminal.
