The table below lists the commands supported by the Multistate Value Object.
Command Name |
Parameters |
Description |
---|---|---|
Disable Alarms |
None |
Disables all types of alarming: alarm extensions, BACnet intrinsic alarming, and BACnet Event Enrollment objects. |
Enable Alarms |
None |
Enables all types of alarming: alarm extensions, BACnet intrinsic alarming, and BACnet Event Enrollment objects. |
Operator Override |
State0–StateN |
Updates the Present Value at Command Priority Operator Override (8). The Operator Override command sends the specified command to the internal NxE object, which is then only sent to the field device when one of the following conditions is met: a) NOT Local Control and NOT Out Of Service, or b) NOT Local Control and after issuing the In Service command. |
Release Operator Override |
None |
Releases Command Priority Operator Override (8) from Present Value. |
Release |
|
Releases the identified command priority from the specified, writable attribute, and allows it to be controlled by the next highest priority. |
Release All |
Attribute name |
Important: The Release All
command may not cause an immediate return to automatic
operation. The Release All command clears
all command priorities, including those that come from
applications and features. When this happens, the output point
goes to its Relinquish Default condition. In some cases, the
application or feature may have sent a command that does not
match Relinquish Default. In this instance, the output point
does not end in the state that the applications or features
intended. This situation can cause unexpected operation to
occur; for example, a space could overcool or overheat, a fan
might run longer than expected, and so on. If an operator has
overridden an input, use the Release Operator Override
command.
Releases Command Priorities 3 through 15 from the specified, writable attribute. Command Priorities 1 (Manual Emergency) and 2 (Fire Application) remain. |
State0 … StateN |
None Note: The MS/TP Multistate Value supports an equivalent Set State
command which takes State0-StateN as parameters.
|
Important: Be aware that an operator state command
releases the actions of any processes running to the object in
the NxE or FEC controllers that use Priorities 9 through 16.
Consider this behavior when creating control strategies.
Releases Command Priorities 9 through 15 (Scheduling) and then writes to the Present Value at the Default (16) command priority. The state command names and number of commands are dependent on the States Text and Number of States attributes. |
Temporary Override |
The value to be written to the Present Value attribute, in addition to the duration of the override in hours and minutes. |
Overrides a point temporarily for a specified period of time. After the specified time period passes, the Override is automatically released. |
