Use commands to force an item to perform a specific action. For example, ON and OFF commands for a binary output make a fan run or stop, and the Enable and Disable commands in the Trend extension start and stop the collection of samples.
For information on which commands an item supports, see the appropriate topic in the Object Help.
For information on how to send a command to a single item, see Commanding an Item in the Commands Dialog section.
For information on sending a command to multiple items, see Commanding Multiple Items (Global Command) in the Commands Dialog section.
