In the Metasys system, information coming from devices within an integrated network (LonWorks trunk, N2 Bus, BACnet IP network, or MS/TP network) appears in the same user interface framework as data native to the network engine. The following standard network engine functions are available for field points that are mapped into the network engine from devices in the integrated networks:
-
basic monitoring and commanding
-
alarm and event management
-
control system sequences and interlocking
-
scheduling
-
energy optimization
-
historical data management (trending)
-
audit trails (transaction data management)
-
system diagnostics
