4300 ACM

Environment
Management Console

Cause
The 4300 ACM is not on the 'official' list of supported device types in the ION_Network database.

Resolution
*Warning: Irreparable database damage can occur. This procedure should only be performed by users familiar with SQL Server Management Studio.*

*Databases should be backed up prior to performing this procedure.*

The 4300 uses the same translator as the 3300 so selecting the 3300 will allow this device to communicate. (See article FA214002 )
If adding the 4300 selectable option to the drop drown list within the Management Console is desired, execute the following SQL script on the ION_Network database:

Use ION_Network

Insert Into dbo.DeviceType (Type, DisplayName, EthernetSupport, SecurityModules, UsesFlashFile, IONBufferSize_bytes, TranslatorID, UnsolicitedTickPeriod_ms)
Values('4300','4300 ACM',0,0,'False',4096,1,0)

** See the attachment containing the SQL script text

You will now be able to add a 4300 ACM in Management Console
