Facility View
You are working at a job that includes 50 VAV boxes on a single BACnet MS/TP link. All VAVs
have been installed correctly and are fully commissioned. The System Controller has not yet
been installed on the single water loop serving all 50 VAV boxes. You need to override all the
water valves to the open position until the central water pump balancing task is complete. Access
the Facility View by clicking the icon (shown at the upper left) to apply the override to all the
VAVs you have selected on the Device Navigation Tree simultaneously in one operation.
Applying overrides to groups saves time over a one-device-at-a-time approach.
You can also use the Facility View to override air dampers, fans, and water valves on multiple
instances of a single equipment type including BCs, FCs, UVs, and WSHPs.
The Facility View operates using all types of communication: wired or wireless via Single Link
Access, System Controller pass-through, and BACnet/IP. While the presence of a System
Controller improves performance, the Facility View grouping feature can also function
independently of a System Controller.
The Override Dialog Box
Use the Override dialog box accessed with the Override button on the Facility View to drive air
valves and water valves over the entire communication link to specific positions. Once you
activate an override for a group of similar devices, you can then check the status of all selected
devices to be sure they are acting in the expected manner. You are then free to turn to other tasks
while the override is in effect for the specified duration (seven days maximum).
N N o o t t e e : : Trane standard programs are required to perform group operations.
