PlantScape Server and Client Configuration Guide 115
8 Configuring Points
The information in this chapter applies to configuring points on controllers other
than PlantScape Control Processors. For information on points on PlantScape
Control Processors, refer to the PlantScape Process Control Building Guide.
This chapter provides an overview of the different types of points you can
configure and how they can be used.
This chapter also includes tips and procedures for sites that have very complex
and sophisticated monitoring and control requirements.
This chapter assumes that you have:
• A basic understanding of the accumulator, analog, and status point types
and how they are used in PlantScape. (If not, you should read the general
information about points in the Overview and Planning documentation
before continuing with the procedures in this chapter.)
• Followed the instructions in “Configuring Stations and Printers” on page 57
and “Configuring Controllers” on page 97 for configuring your controllers
and channels.
