Data Point Status
Description
normal
The data point is in normal operation state and possesses a value.
invalid value
The data point has no valid value.
offline (config)
The data point has a value but it is not reflected on the network
due to a configuration error (not commissioned, no binding, no
client mapping, etc.)
offline
The data point has a value but it is not reflected on the network
due to a communication error (e.g., the peer node is not online).
unreliable
(offline)
The data point is in normal operation. The value of it, however,
is qualified as unreliable because a connected data point is
offline. For an output data point it means that the value was fed
from a connection, where the source is offline. For an input data
point it means that the connected output data point could not
send the value to the network.
unreliable (range)
The data point is in normal operation. The value of it, however,
is qualified unreliable because the value is an out-of-range value
for the connected data point. The value is limited to the
supported range.
unreliable
The data point is in normal operation. The value of the data point
or a connected data point has been tagged as unreliable over the
network. This is the case when the BACnet reliability has been
written.
not configured
The data point is mapped to a port, which is not configured (e.g.,
the port is disabled).
inactive
The data point is inactive and the line is grayed-out. Values can
be written but no network communication is triggered. This can
be the case, if a data point is not used in the configuration or it is
connected to a BACnet server object, which is not present on the
device.
Table 9: Data Point States.
The data point names are links. Clicking on such a link opens a detailed page on that data
point. If the data point supports it, the user can also enter a new data point value as depicted
in Figure 56. The
Status
field is discussed in Table 9. The
Flags
,
Poll cycle
,
Min/Max
send time
and
Max age
fields are the common timing parameters for the data point. See
Section 5.1.2 for a closer discussion on timing parameters.
