TEC Initial Value Editor Overview

The TEC Initial Value Editor allows you to load initial values into a Siemens TEC (or other third-party device that uses BACnet MS/TP communication) through the Field Panel Web Server user interface, if necessary.

The TEC Initial Value Editor allows you to:

Save the current initial values of a TEC into the field panel via the Update Panel button

Load initial values into a TEC using the Initialize TEC button

Set new values or release existing values using the Save button

The purpose of initial values is to provide a starting value for a TEC or other FLN device in case power is cycled. If the device is connected to a BACnet field panel, these values are retained and sent to the device. If a device becomes damaged, the new device can be addressed, and its application set, and the field panel will send the initial values so the TEC is configured correctly.

The Initialize TEC feature allows you to load initial values to a TEC if necessary. Also, Individual points can be released through the TEC Initial Value Editor.

User Interface Description for the TEC Initial Value Editor

The TEC Initial Value Editor window can be accessed by clicking the TEC Init icon in the Create/Edit bar in the navigation pane on the left side of the screen.
