APOGEE FLN Subpoint Selector

Information

NOTE:
Information about TEC subpoints applies to BACnet objects only. During an export of APOGEE objects, the system always provides subpoints.

Overview

The primary purpose of the FLN Subpoint Selector is to allow you to enable or disable subpoints for TEC applications. These subpoints are either:

• Imported by Desigo CC through files created by the Desigo CC Export Utility in Insight software or in the Commissioning Tool, or
• Discovered by Desigo CC through the system's Discovery feature, which detects devices already on the network.

The Export Utility exports only pre-defined subpoints in a TEC. TEC subpoints that are not pre-defined will not display in your panels. So, if you want them to display in the management station, you must add them in the Commissioning Tool’s System Profile application before you create the export files. This allows the subpoints to display as TEC subpoints in your panels, and these subpoints can then be trended, and so on.

The FLN Subpoint Selector also allows you to create default Functions for BACnet TEC applications that are not present in the library. The default Function can then be configured appropriately.

FLN Subpoint Lists

The following screen shot shows the location of FLN Subpoint Lists, which is highlighted. Clicking this node while in Engineering mode displays the FLN Subpoint Selector in the Primary pane.

P1DXR Considerations

Because the P1 communication protocol does not support multi-state values, multi-state points in P1DXR devices are represented as analog points in Extended Operations. However, the P1DXR graphic templates included with the APOGEE_BACnet_TEC extension module allow the correct state text for multi-state points to display. These templates contain a legend showing proper command values for the analog to multi-state mapping—for example:

Here are some additional considerations:

• P1DXR application numbers must not match existing standard DXR application numbers.
• If the P1DXR is attached to an Apogee P2 panel, then a custom function and object model will be generated automatically, but you will still need to assign the P1DXR template graphic to the function.
• You cannot use the same application number for P1DXR for both Apogee P2 and Apogee BACnet integration. If identical P1DXRs are connected to both Apogee P2 and Apogee BACnet, they must use different application numbers.

FLN Subpoint Selector Workspace

Item	Description
1	Subpoint Selector The Subpoint Selector section allows you to select which subpoints you want to enable or disable for the chosen application. A check mark in the Enabled column indicates an enabled subpoint. No check mark indicates a disabled subpoint.
2	FLN Subpoint Selector Toolbar The following buttons are included: Save button saves changes you make in the Subpoint Selector section. Discard Short List Changes button undoes subpoints you enabled in the Subpoint Selector section. Delete button deletes the selected application from your system. You can re-add the application by rediscovering it if you need it again. Create Default Function button creates a default Function for the FLN TEC application that is selected in System Browser FLN_Subpoint_Lists. The button is disabled if a function already exists for the TEC application. Apply Default Function button is enabled when a new default Function has been created. Select the button to apply the default Function to all applications of the same number. The Unit and Unitt Text Group values are automatically populated. ReSync button allows you to resync all devices for the selected application number to the subpoint selections. Align Function allows you retrieve the units and state text values from and apply them to the associated text group.
3	Application Selector Displays a list of all the TECs in the system. When you select one of the applications, its associated subpoints display in the Subpoint Selector section.
