Drivers Guide - Override (Status Attributes that are Common to Many Drivers)

Override

Associated with: Points on which the Override feature is supported and enabled

The Override status attribute indicates whether a point’s value is currently overridden.

When a point is overridden, the attribute indicates:

Where the override is applied. Points support master station overrides (whereby the override is applied at the ClearSCADA server). Points on some drivers also support overrides that are applied at:

The outstation
Both the master station and the outstation.

If the override is applied at the master station, the name of the user that requested that override.

The attribute displays None when no override is in force.

Example

Overridden at Master Station by JDJefferson
(Indicating that a point is currently overridden at the server. The override was requested by the user ‘JDJefferson’.)

While a local override is in force, the point value and state that were ‘put aside’ in favor of the locally overridden value are indicated by the Put Aside Value and Put Aside State status attributes, respectively.

Also see Put Aside Last Updated, and see Put Aside Quality.
