Setting Up Alarms, History, and Trends

Setting up the rules for sending and receiving alarms and collecting historical data is an important part of building automation control. You can use the channel configuration to define general settings for all devices in the channel, and then override the settings inherited from the channel on selected devices as needed.

To configure the general settings for alarms and historical data on a channel, refer to the following topics:

• Setting Up BACnet Alarms
• Setting Up BACnet Trends and Historical Alarms

To configure or override the settings on individual devices, refer to the following topics:
