link each object to a schedule object. In addition, the control loops, damper
objects, and alarm monitoring (such as return air, supply air, and mixed air
temperature objects) will be inhibited from alarming during a user-defined
period after startup to allow for stabilization. When the air handler is stopped,
the interlocked return fan is also stopped, the outside air damper is closed, and
other related objects within the air handler unit are inhibited from alarming
therby eliminating nuisance alarms during the off period.
9. Math Object. Allow a minimum of four analog objects to be tested for the
minimum or maximum, or the sum, difference or average of linked objects. Also,
allow limits to be applied to the output value for alarm generation.
10. PID Control Loop Object. Minimum requirement is to comply with BACnet
