Overview
OpenBSI Netview can be used to determine which values to use in the addressing fields of the ACM configuration for a BSAP RTU.
...
- Enter the appropriate Address value in the corresponding field in ACM if the Address Type in Step 5 is 'Local' or 'Global'.
- Enter the value in the "Network Level" field in Netview into the "Device Level" field in ACM.
Getting ACM BSAP Upload Information for a ControlWave Device
OpenBSI Netview can be used to determine which values to use in ACM uses for the Meter Configuration, Archive Field Configuration, and BSAP Archive Access objects.
Meter Configuration Object
The Meter Configuration object maps data from signals defined within the BSAP device to the fields of the FLOWCAL configuration record. Each FLOWCAL configuration field that you want to fill with data from the device must be assigned the item name of the signal from the device that contains the data. The person who programmed the device will either have chosen their own signal name or accepted Emerson's default signal name for these values. The .sig file for the ControlWave device's load contains a list of all the programmed signal names, but no information on what values those signal names reference, other than educated guesses that can be made from the names themselves. This information must come from the programmer.
Archive Field Configuration Object
The Archive Field Configuration object maps data from archive files in the device to the fields of the FLOWCAL history record. This information can be read from the device using OpenBSI. Note: Screen captures below are taken from OpenBSI Netview, version 5.6. Screens from other versions or different OpenBSI programs may not match exactly.

| The "Field Identifier" can be either a pre-defined value from the list or a String object that created within ACM. However, to be correctly published in an EFM format, the field identifier must be one of the pre-defined values. |
BSAP Archive Access Object
Most ControlWaves use archive files to store their uploads. The BSAP Archive Access object can be configured to use either the file number or the file name with the "Archive Type" field. The archive file number or name goes in the "Array or File ID" field. The archive file number is found in the "Number" field of the Flash Configuration screen shown above; the archive file name is found in the "Name" field.
