- You have created a piece of equipment or a device.
- You are on the Hierarchy tab.
- In the tree structure, select the piece of equipment or the device.
- Go to the Relationships card.
- Next to the Polling configuration setting, select Edit.
- From the dropdown lists, select the following options:
- Polling: Frequency of retrieving data from data points.
- Storage interval: Frequency of sending data from data points to the user.
- Deviation: Deviation stores the changes in the values that exceed the set deviation independent of the storage interval. This is the maximum deviation that can be achieved before the value is stored.
In the example above, data is retrieved every 5 minutes. The user receives the data every 30 minutes. If the deviation from norm is more than 10%, the user receives an out-of-schedule notification about that.
- Select Save.
- The polling time is configured.
The polling time setting impacts the BACnet and Modbus connectors.
If defined on a device level, the polling time configuration is only valid for the data points of that device.
