Possible reasons why the "Unable to Read Flow Computer Notes" error occurred.
- It is possible that the FlowComputerNotes.xml file is missing or does not exist, causing this issue. To determine if the FlowComputerNotes.xml file exists, telnet to the device and go to the Realflo directory.
- Its also possible that the FlowComputerNotes.xml file is corrupted.
RESOLUTION:
- Read the Realflo program using an older version of the Realflo app (for example, Realflo v7.11.1), and then write the same Realflo program back to the SCADAPack x70 device. Afterward, use the latest Realflo app to read the Realflo configuration back.
- Or, copy and transfer the attached FlowComputerNotes.xml file to the SCADAPack x70 RTU using FTP. Please see the steps below to enable the FTP server in RemoteConnect and then use Filezilla to transfer the file into the Realflo folder on the SCADAPack x70 device.
Using FileZilla, transfer the FlowComputerNotes.xml file from the computer to the Realflo folder on the SCADAPack x70 device.
