Continuum to SBO Conversion Tools

The following tools work in conjunction to convert Continuuum dumpfiles (eg VAV-1234.dmp) to either SBO b3 applications or SBO 3rd party BACnet device applications.

Continuum dumpfile extractor

Reads a dumpfile and converts it to an Excel workbook, where each sheet contains a list of Continuum objects:

  • Report
  • EventEnrollment
  • EventNotification
  • Schedule
  • InfinityNumeric
  • InfinityInput
  • InfinityOutput
  • InfinityString
  • Group
  • Program
  • InfinitySystemVariable

As well as relevant attributes of the object (incomplete).

Example usage

# This is a very long and ugly import call. I should probably clean it up one day
from SmartStruxure-engineering-toolkit.legacy_system.continuum.converter import DmpfileExtractor

# define dump file locations
# Assume you have a bunch of .dmp files exported from Continuum sitting in the same directory
def get_dmpfiles(path="."):
	files = listdir(path)
	dmpfiles = [file for file in files if ".dmp" in file.lower()]
	return dmpfiles

dumpfiles = get_dmpfiles()

# loop through .dmp files and spit out Excel workbook with the same name
for dumpfile in dumpfiles:
	my_xlfile = 'ddc_objects_' + dumpfile.split(".")[0] + '_.xlsx'
	extractor = DmpfileExtractor(dmpfile=dumpfile)
	extractor.get_b3_objects(verbose=True)
	extractor.to_excel(workbook=my_xlfile)

Continuum b3 application to SBO converter

Takes an Excel workbook contining Continuum objects (ie the output of DmpfileExtractor) and converts it into a b3 or BACnet application.

Currently only supports the following object types:

  • Analog Input
  • Digital Input
  • Multistate Input
  • Analog Output
  • Digital Output
  • Multistate Output
  • Analog Value
  • Digital Value
  • Multistate Value
  • Datetime Value
  • String Value
  • Alarms (creates object only, does not preserve bind)
  • Schedules (creates object only, does not preserve event objects)

Example usage:

# This is a very long and ugly import call. I should probably clean it up one day
from SmartStruxure-engineering-toolkit.legacy_system.continuum.converter import b3ApplicationBuilder

# The Excel workbook you just created
my_xlfile = 'Example Continuum DDC objects.xlsx'

# The XML filename you want to output to for importing into SBO BACnet device Application
my_xmlfile = 'Example Continuum DDC objects output.xml'

# instantiate ModbusSlaveTransition object
sbo_modbus_converter = ModbusSlaveTransition(xlfile=my_xlfile, xmlfile=my_xmlfile)

# create SBO xml for importing
b3xmlbuilder = b3ApplicationBuilder()
b3xmlbuilder.make_xml()

NOTE: Does not support Continuum programs yet.
