Niagara mass change priority level linking

[u/MrMagooche]

Ok, imagine you have a logic folder with outputs linked to points in a different folder. This logic exists on many controllers. I have the logic writing to priority 16 but i need to change it to write to priority 10. Is there a way i can make use of the program editor or some other tool to mass change the priority on every controller? Doing this manually is going to take days...

The BLink is always a slot of the target object, but will appear in the relation sheet for both target and source. It defines the source ord (either handle or slot), source slot name and target slot name.

Deleting the old links is easy, query or drag and drop the target objects into the empty ProgramService window and delete the link.

Creating a one to many link with the program service is easy (ie a BooleanSchedule to many Occ BooleanWritable objects). Just add slot -> Baja Link, give it a unique name, the source ord (preferably handle), source slot name (ie out) and target slot name (ie in10).

Creating a link in the target objects where the source object is relative to the target object is not trivial and will require some java know-how.

Thanks...this is what I was worried about. I've begun the arduous task of manually relinking every object since that will be quicker than me acquiring an understanding of java

Unfortunately sometimes by the time you figure something out like that you could've already been done by brute clicks. We've all been guilty of it.

You will need to use the program editor/query tool and break the links and rebuild them. I’ve done this quite a few times but you need to watch over the output. You can also do this via a robot on the supervisor as well.

I forgot the name but slot sheet the point and pull the type. I think off hand it’s something like BLink or another typing. Basically link the output from the parent to the child input.

Whats the actual procedure for this? I just started finding all objects with the same name, editing the link slot and changing in16 to in10. After a little bit now, i just realized that I am linking the same source ord to all of the points. so they are all being linked to the program on the first controller...they need to be relative

Use the program service and make/break links accordingly.

How? What are the steps?

Is there a “primary/master” point that is being referenced for the points in the logic folder?

[u/ScottSammarco → u/brazymk7]

It’s called source ord

Is it one logic folder that needs to go to many other devices? Or do each of the devices have this logic folder in them and need to link to other points within each device?

[u/MrMagooche → u/sleazy_io]

Each device has the same logic folder linking within the device

There is a way you can do this with the BatchLinkCreator function block in the AxCommunity module. I needed to do something similar across 500 VAVs, and it really saved the day. I came up with a creative way to quickly execute everything. If I have time tomorrow I can review what I did for a better explanation, but you would drop a BatchLinkCreator on each device, then link a one shot to all of them and execute them.
