8.4 Device Configuration
When the “configure” button is clicked from the device details page, the screen will be refreshed, with the
same information, however the device name, alarm settings and console checkbox will be available.
Device Name:
This field allows you to specify a name for the device such as “main building power” or other
useful name to indicate the location or function of the device. A name
must
be assigned to a device before
the EMB Hub will log data for it.
Low Alarm, High Alarm:
Specify a threshold for the alarm. If the data point is recorded below the Low
Alarm, or above the High Alarm levels at the time a log entry is taken, the point will be considered in an
alarm state.
Console:
Checking this checkbox will cause the EMB Hub to display this data point on the LCD console.
Multiple data points are rotated about every 10 seconds. The values on the LCD console are updated when
the next log interval occurs.
Point Config:
Some devices have configurable point features. The A8332 I/O module has 8 flexible
(Analog, Pulse, and Resistive) inputs that require additional configuration as detailed in the next section.
The H663/704 BCM product only requires the circuit breaker name in this menu. Most data points are
automatically configured and this option may not be displayed.
Advanced:
At the lower right corner of the page, an advanced configuration button may be present
depending on the Modbus device features.
