Control and Force
Associated with: Sofrel output points
Security permission required to access this pick action: Control
This pick action is only available when used in conjunction with outstations that use the SOFBUS-PL protocol.
Use this pick action in same way as the standard Control pick action, to control the device that is represented by an output point.
The Control and Force pick action is available on a point providing that:
- Your User Account is allocated the Control security permission for that point.
- The Disable Controls has not been used to prevent users from issuing controls on that point.
Display the object menu and select the Control and Force pick action to display the Control window.
Specify the required value in the Value or Action field, depending on the type of point. You may be offered a combo list of point values, or need to specify a value within a particular range. The range or values from which you can choose are determined by the point’s configuration.
When you select OK the action is requested.
When using this pick action with the Automation Interface, you need to specify the method name ControlForce.
