Versions Affected:

R9.5a and newer

Resolved In Version:

See Resolution section below.

Symptoms:

Some SNAP-AIRTD-8U point types are erroneously classified as outputs by the Control Engine. There are two ways you might see this issue:

The most common and easily seen symptom is through the REST interface. The points are displayed on the REST Outputs page (/device/strategy/ios/analogOutputs) instead of the Inputs page (/device/strategy/ios/analogInputs).
A much less likely symptom is that for affected point types, if you configure the following Analog input point parameters in the Edit Analog Point dialog of your PAC Control strategy, these parameters will be ignored:
- Send Value > Average Filter Weight
- Send Values: Offset, Gain

Resolution:

To resolve this issue, you must use both PAC Control R9.6a (or higher) and PAC Firmware R10.0d.
