The system capacity indicator displays the percentage of maximum objects that your application is currently using. This percentage is calculated by the application's object count divided by the maximum object count of the selected controller model (refer to the controller's technical specifications). For example, 2,500 objects in the application divided by 3,000 maximum objects indicates 83% capacity. See the following table for determining object counts.

Note: If your system capacity is greater than 85%, we recommend that you run Simulation mode before you transfer the application to the device. This step confirms you have not exceeded the controller Object ID (OID) count.
Depending on the device you are using, you may see one of the following error messages when starting Simulation mode or when transferring to a device:
  • BACnet OID count exceeded maximum limit of [number]. Devices have maximum BACoid object (Object Count) capacity limits. To find out more about controller BACoid Object limits, see the following table.
  • Controller OID count [number] exceeded maximum limit of [number]. This error only occurs when you start Simulation mode. When you transfer to a device, this results in a transfer failure with an error of instances deleted. The value of this limit accounts for OIDs used in a controller for objects that are removed for Simulation, such as hardware points. To find out more about controller OID Object limits, see the following table.
