Additional Information
* Items in NV memory are not lost upon power or battery failure. Other types of NV memory such as EPROM, NOVROM, etc. do not directly impact system performance.
Can trend data be stored in this controller? Yes
How many total trend values can be stored? 2 independent trend logs, each capable of storing 12 trend values
What is the controllers role in trending? Controller holds the trend configuration (point to trend, sample interval, criteria for sample, and performs sampling accordingly, recording data in trend log
Can controller be programmed to 'push' data to archive or are trends 'pulled' from controller? Pulled from controller by trend log viewer plug-in and by Circon's HMI Visual Integrator 3
When full, does controller automatically send up trend data, overwrite data, or stop logging data? Overwrite oldest data
Programming Method(s) Two methods of programming:
1. Template-based form of programming. Configuration performed on laptop/PC running LNS network management tool and the device-specific configuration LNS plug-in supplied by Circon.

2. Line code programming using Circon Basic. Circon BASIC Compiler software provides Windows-based application for editing, compiling and downloading program.
Resident vs Non-Resident Program Execution All program execution is controller resident
Scheduling
Resident/Supervisory. This controller supervises the scheduling of other controllers.
Resident/Stand Alone. This controller contains its own schedule. Two resident independent schedules
Non-Resident. This controller is dependent upon another controller for its schedule.
None. This controller has no scheduling features.
Other Controller can also get schedule from another controller via network variable
Resident Energy Management
Energy management algorithms for this controller can be custom programmed
Pre-programmed/built-in algorithms available, and are fully editable using custom programming
Pre-Programmed/built-in with limited editing via template-based programming
Controller is not typically used for energy management functions
Others
Specific Pre-Programmed Algorithms Available
None (custom programming only)
None (not applicable)

Additional Programming Functions
DDC Loops (P, PI, PID) PI
Automatic PID Tuning Feature No
Automatical-Dial Alarm Support Yes, in conjunction with Circon SMC-300 Site Management Controller
Does controller perform multiple retries and buffer/store alarm until connection is made? Yes, controller monitors up to four points for configurable alarm conditions. Configuration performed by LNS plug-in software
Are multiple destinations possible? Yes, in conjunction with Circon SMC-300 Site Management Controller which can be configured.
Upon controller power loss or hardware failure:
Are network communications affected? No
Is loss recognized on/by the network and alarm reported? Yes, in conjunction with SMC-300
DO and AO response?
Outputs fail to a user pre-specified position
Outputs fail to a normal (unpowered) position
Outputs fail to last position
Other
Volatile memory functions?
Lost
Retained for life of backup battery
Other
Upon restoration of power does the controller:
Auto-reboot without operator intervention? Yes
Automatically reset/synchronize the clock? Yes, when synchronized by master clock device via network variable
Update all monitored functions? Yes
Generate an alarm if backup battery is dead? No battery
Upon network or communications failure does controller:
Continue to operate standalone? Yes
Operate with last global settings or user-specified value? N.A.
Do broken network segments continue to communicate within the remaining segment?
(Note: May depend on proper termination of segments for higher speed networks.) 		No
Does network automatically reconfigure upon restoration? No
Does network store 'loss of communications' alarm with time of event? Yes, in conjunction with SMC-300
