Analog Input (AI) points provide variable-type information to the automation station. Examples of AI points include:

  • Temperature sensors
  • Relative humidity sensors

present-value

PrVal

Present value

A standard BACnet property that indicates the current value, in engineering units, of the input being measured. The present-value property shall be writable when out_of_service is TRUE.

Tracking_Value

TckVal

Tracking value

A read-only proprietary property that indicates the measured value regardless of whether the input is decoupled by means of out-of-service.

units

Un

Units

A writable standard BACnet enumerated property that indicates the measurement units of this object.

resolution

Rsl

Resolution

A writable standard BACnet property that indicates the smallest recognizable change in present-value in engineering units.

max-pres-value

PrValMax

Present maximum value

A writable standard BACnet property that indicates the highest number in engineering units that can be reliably obtained for the present-value property of this object.

min-pres-value

PrValMin

Present minimum value

A writable standard BACnet property that indicates the lowest number in engineering units that can be reliably obtained for the present-value property of this object.

Correction_Offset

CorrOfs

Correction offset

A writable proprietary property that specifies an offset used to correct a potential difference between the real Physical Variable and the measured value.

Correction_Factor

CorrFac

Correction factor

A writable proprietary property that specifies a multiplication factor used to correct a potential difference between the real Physical Variable and the measured value.

cov-increment

Cov

Change of value, COV

A writable standard BACnet property that specifies the minimum change in present-value that will cause a COV Notification to be issued to subscriber COV-clients.

Alarm-Extension

AlarmExtn

Event configuration

A writable enumerated proprietary property that specifies whether the optional intrinsic alarming extension is enabled for the object.

Aggregation-Extension

AggtnExtn

Aggregation: Operating hours & others

A writable enumerated proprietary enumerated property that allows an optional aggregation extension to be enabled for the object.
