Communication Address

Numeric

This property provides access to the assigned communications address value of the UCM being represented.

Communication Bad Message Count

Numeric

This is a property for keeping track of the number of message errors which occur when attempting to communicate with the UCM.

Communication Channel

Numeric

This property provides access to the assigned communications channel value of the UCM being represented.

Communication Error Count

Numeric

This is a property for keeping track of the number of communications errors that occur when attempting to communicate with the UCM.

Communication No Answer Count

Numeric

This is a property for keeping track of the number of unanswered communications with the UCM.

Communication Retry

Binary

Provides access to the communications retry indicator. This property is used to signal the control server that it needs to force control data output to the device when it is awakened for maintenance operations. The communications retry indicator is set (TRUE) when an attempt to send control data fails, and cleared (FALSE) when communications are successful.

Communication State

Binary

This property indicates the status of communications between the BCU and the UCM.  0=Down, 1=Up.

Control Event Class

Numeric

This property identifies the control event class to be used for controlling the given commandable object.

This indicates the date and time when the present value property of this object was last controlled.

Manual Override Status

Binary

This property indicates that at least one output (analog or binary) is in a hardware override state. 0=NO, 1=YES

Minimum Off Time

Numeric

This property provides access to the minimum off time assigned to the UCM being represented. This value serves to protect the hardware from cycle times which might harm the hardware.

Minimum On Time

Numeric
