Object analog output (AO)

Object type analog out (AO) includes the BACnet properties for one analog output.

Naming

There is a dependency between 'Name', 'Description' and 'Naming extension'. Any changes to one impacts the other two properties.

Note:
The dependency can be eliminated by entering a project-specific text.

Example 1:
The preconfigured 'Description' "Supply air humidity" sets the 'Name' to "HuSu" if selected. If "Abs" is selected as a supplement to the 'Naming extension', the description is supplemented by "(Absolut)" to "Supply air humidity (absolute)" and the name becomes "HuSu(Abs)". The name also forms the last element of the object name.

Example 2:
The preconfigured 'Description' "Room temperature" sets the 'Name' to "TR" if selected. Selecting "01" (project-specific text) in addition to 'Naming extension', results in the 'Name' "TR(01)". The name also forms the last element of the object name.
