This section explains how to command binary, Control System (CS), and
Access objects.
With the NT, you can manually change the state of:
z
a binary object
z
a multistate object within a CS object
z
a Card Reader (CR) object
z
an Access Control (AC) object
When you select COMMAND, new command options become available
for the selected object.
Commanding
Binary and
CS Objects
For example, when you select a fan, selecting COMMAND displays the
fan’s current state (OFF, LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH). You can change that
state by selecting a new command option.
To command a binary or CS object, select a system, an object, and
COMMAND. Select the new command option.
Notes: Setpoint, binary, and multistate attributes within a CS object
cannot be commanded using the Network Terminal unless you
first specify what attribute is to be commanded. This can be
done either in DDL or at the PC using the CS Object Definition
or Focus Window.
Binary output objects eligible for local control cannot be
commanded.
