Need some help fellow controls guys? Customer looking for some feature_benefit analysis of the JCI FX40 and Echelon's i.lon100 e3. Figured best place to start is to ask the experts, guys who configure and commission it everyday.
We recently did a job with Distech and Honeywell. Honeywell did not have the controller that we needed for parts of the job, we are a Honeywell company so of course we used it where we could. Anyhow integrated it with a webs 403 and it worked pretty good I must say. I did like the Distech it was a first for us and you know how fun that can be but all is good.Ya, its stupid. They just lock themselves out of selling hardware.
Distech/Voyant cross all branding lines. Plus its good stuff. Win Win!
How did he smoke any controllers doing that?
I have the wizards on a straight Vykon jace and they work.asdf;ljk;1952260 said:I think the WEBS wizards are restricted to only work with the WEBS tools.
I have used them on Vykon as well, I even got FX40 stations to run on WEBs software on my computer. I don't think it would run on a Jace because I think it needs the jci .dist file or the right appliance files.I have the wizards on a straight Vykon jace and they work.
If the WEBSAX wizards are truly unrestricted, then they should run on the FX. FX doesn't place any restrictions on their licensing. They might be restricted to only WEBS and Vykon.

I don't think I have Hutchey's wizards, what are they?
Then it may just need the one of the Honeywell .jar files to run. All FX's are open? Interesting...asdf;ljk;1952846 said:If the WEBSAX wizards are truly unrestricted, then they should run on the FX.

One of the guys, I belive at Honeywell wrote some wizards included px views for the individual HW controllers we have used some of them they work really well. I will see if I can get a link to them. I believe that they might be available through the Tridium forums.I have used them on Vykon as well, I even got FX40 stations to run on WEBs software on my computer.
