Manually add points
Configurations that do not support discovery (JACE-2 or the JACE–4/5 series) require the manual creation of each proxy point.
- Double-click the Points folder under the Drivers→MercuryNetwork→Portal folder in the Nav tree.
- Click New, and select the type of point.
- To create one or more inputs or portals, select BooleanPoint. To create one or more outputs, select Boolean Writable. Indicate the number of points to add, and click OK.
- Create a unique, meaningful Name, change Facets to something more appropriate than “true” and “false,” and include a Description that explains the purpose of the point.
If creating a virtual point, include the word “virtual” in the name or description.
The
icon accesses the batch search and replace function.
The point is ready to be connected on the wiresheet.
