Field

Description

Name

Indicates the name of the point.

Intrinsic Alarming Defined

Indicates whether Intrinsic Alarming is enabled for this point. Options are:

  • True: Enable Intrinsic Alarming for this point
  • False: Disable Intrinsic Alarming for this point

If you set the Intrinsic Alarming Defined fields to True, additional fields are enabled for editing.

Time Delay

Indicates the amount of time in seconds that an alarm condition must persist before the event is generated. You can edit this field only if Intrinsic Alarming Defined is enabled. The values, options, and range include:

0–65,535

Units (seconds)

Applies to all point objects and the Accumulator

Notification Class

Specifies the BACnet object identifier of the notification class within the Advanced Application Controller that is used to route the event notification. You can edit this field only if Intrinsic Alarming Defined is enabled.

Notify Type

Indicates whether this is an Alarm or an Event. You can edit this field only if Intrinsic Alarming Defined is enabled. Applies to all point objects and the Accumulator.

Event Enable

Changes the event to To Off Normal, To Fault, or To Normal. You can edit this field if Intrinsic Alarming Defined is enabled.

Event Message Texts Config

Enables the configuration of messages, to be displayed in fault and normal event notifications. You can edit this field if Intrinsic Alarming Defined is enabled. Applies to all point objects and the Accumulator. Maximum 256 characters.

Note: Newer release modes allow for the configuration of three event messages (To Off Normal, To Fault, and To Normal), while older releases allow for the configuration of one event message (To Off Normal).

Limit Enable

Indicates whether you want Low Limit or High Limit enabled. You can edit this field if Intrinsic Alarming Defined is enabled. Applies to AI, AO, AV, and Accumulator objects.

High Limit

Indicates the high limit for the point. You can edit this field if Intrinsic Alarming Defined is enabled. Applies to AI, AO, AV, and Accumulator objects.

Low Limit

Indicates the low limit for the point. You can edit this field if Intrinsic Alarming Defined is enabled. Applies to AI, AO, AV, and Accumulator objects.

BACnet Deadband

Defines the value by which the Present Value must change below the High Limit or above the Low Limit before the object generates a To-Normal event. You can edit this field if Intrinsic Alarming Defined is enabled. Applies to AI, AO, AV, and Accumulator objects.

Alarm Value(s)

Indicates values that you can assign to the alarm. You can edit this field if Intrinsic Alarming States Text attribute identifies the value set for this attribute.

Applies to BI, BV, MI, and MV objects.

For MI and MV objects, you can select multiple values from a list, unlike the other objects that are limited to one value.

Fault Values

Indicates the fault value. You can edit this field if Intrinsic Alarming States Text attribute identifies the value set for this attribute.

The States Text attribute identifies the value set for this attribute.

The list of numbers comes from a list of alarm values. Applies to MI and MV objects.
