Point Overrides
An override refers to the action of a user taking control of a point rather than allowing the system
to control it. Point values can be overridden for output and value points by users who have been
assigned a priority level that gives them override capability. Priority levels of 1–16 exist, with 1
being the highest. The following four priority levels have been pre-assigned for user overrides:
•
1: Life Safety - Manual
•
8: Manual Override High
•
11: Manual Override Medium
•
13: Manual Override Low (the default for user overrides)
A user with a priority level
higher
than 13 (a number less than 13), has advanced override capability.
Points appearing with the following icon on their right can be overridden:
Points that have been overridden appear with the following icons:
•
A user override exists:

A temporary user override exists:
Overriding a Point
To override a point, click on an override icon, which opens the Override dialog box. Override icons
are located in the far right column of table in which values are listed, or in any status section of a
given piece of equipment, space, or system application.
Figure 1
shows two types of override icons
that appear on an Area status page, both of which can be overridden.
