Installation

From your PC, use the Niagara Workbench 3.n.nn installed with the “installation tool” option (checkbox “This instance of Workbench will be used as an installation tool”). This option installs the needed distribution files (.dist files) for commissioning various models of remote JACE platforms. The dist files are located under your Niagara install directory under a “sw” subdirectory.

For details, see “About your software database” in the Platform Guide.

Apart from installing the 3.n.nn version of the Niagara distribution in the JACE, make sure to also install the obix and obixDriver modules, plus any modules shown as dependencies. If the JACE will be operating as an oBIX server, make sure the web module is installed (and that feature is licensed). Upgrade any modules shown as “out of date”.

For details, see “Software Manager” in the Platform Guide.

Following this, the remote JACE is now ready for Obix configuration in its running station, as described in the rest of this document. See the next section oBIX Quick Startfor a series of task-based procedures.
