DDC Online - direct digital controls

Product Name(s):	BTI; BTI-MDM w/ modem
Product Description:	The Alerton BTI is a programmable supervisory interface and multi-port BACnet compliant router. The BTI can support up to 256 Alerton secondary control units (VisualLogic Controllers also known as VLCs) on four MS/TP networks. The BTI communicates using BACnet/IP or alternately using BACnet/EtherTI can also communicate with 3rd-party BACnet-compliant devices. Tnet. When communicating using BACnet/IP the BTI can act as a BACnet Broadcast Management Device (BBMD) and communicate with up to 31 other BBMDs.
Product Application(s):	The BTI communicates with all connected VLCs to update information and share points, and then coordinates building-wide control and energy management functions via commands to these secondary control units (VLCs). The BTI has the capacity to execute pre-programmed and custom routines for global building control and energy management functions.

Zone-Based Interface Access	N.A.
Zone Interface Hardware
Note: This section covers the capabilities for accessing the controller or other parts of the network from the controller (i.e. 'bottom-up'). Standard access functionality is covered in the Architecture and Software sections. *Does NOT include front-end OI functions. See vendor for specific functions available.

Can trend data be stored in this controller?	Yes
How many total trend values can be stored?	Up to 1000 trendlogs can be stored consisting of 1 point per log and 256 samples per point (for a total of 256,000 stored samples per controller)
What is the controllers role in trending?	Programming resident within the BTI gathers and stores trend data on-board. At set intervals, data is sent by the BTI to a workstation for archival.
Can controller be programmed to 'push' data to archive or are trends 'pulled' from controller?
When full, does controller automatically send up trend data, overwrite data, or stop logging data?	If controller trend data buffer fills before being called by archive workstation, old data is overwritten.
