3.2.10 When a binary contact goes from open to closed, or vice versa, the 'change of state' is
reported by the system.
3.2.11 Some alarms may, however, be critical and should never be locked out. It should be
possible to define these alarms when they are entered into the system in such a way that
it is impossible to lock them out.
3.2.12 On start-up of certain plant, it takes a finite time before stable conditions are reached and
the BMS should allow for automatic lockout of alarms for a preset period following start-
up.
3.2.13 If, either as a result of time programming, or an operator command, several large electrical
items are called to start at the same instant, this may cause overloading. BMS shall have
capability to overcome this by defining these items as 'heavy' electrical items, and
introduce a delay time to prevent starting of the next load until delay time has elapsed.
3.2.14 Logging of important status information will be provided. The list of such important items
shall be provided by contractor for approval of Engineer In charge
3.2.15 This should contain, in plain language, identification of the point, status and other data,

alarm, all points off normal, all motors which are running, all points which are locked out,
etc.
3.2.19 It should be possible to log system advisory messages, e.g. malfunctions within the
management system itself, such as hardware failures, power loss, failure of a point to
respond to a command, communication errors etc.
3.2.20 Operator will be allowed to define the engineering units, e.g. voltage, kWh, degrees
centigrade, etc., and the ranges over which they are to be measured.
3.2.21 An alarm should be reported in case of breaking the preset limit of analogue points such
as voltage, current etc.
3.2.22 To avoid nuisance alarm, the software should have flexibility to allow varying the
differentials or introducing time lag. For example, if a space temperature alarms at 25°C
high and has a 0.1°C differential, it will be constantly going in and out of alarm between
25°C and 24.9°C. It would probably just as acceptable to have a 2°C differential which
would reduce the number of alarms repor ted considerably and furthermore, when they
did occur, would be more meaningful to the operator.
3.2.23 It should be possible to lock out analogue alarms, both by the operator andautomatically,
during start-up maintenance operations if nuisance alarms are to be avoided.
3.2.24 It should allow start/stop commands to be set up at precise times, with daily variations as
well as allowing holiday programming.
3.2.25 The system will keep a record of how many hours a plant has been running or how long
a point has been running or how long a point has been in a normal or off-normal condition.
3.2.26 Limits to be set which can be used to alert the operator to the fact that maintenance is
necessary or perhaps can automatically switch from one pump to another after a present
period.
3.2.27 A record of consumption of things such as liters of fuel used, kWh etc. will be kept.
3.2.28 English language for both input and output will be accepted.

3.2.32 Different colours will be used to bring particular conditions to the attention of the operator.
The contractor should submit scheme in this regard for approval of Employer's
representative.
3.2.33 The operator will have the facility to generate or draw his own graphics on the VDU and
have a library of standard symbols available to him held in the memory of the system.
3.2.34 Password will restrict access to certain important areas, so it is necessary to control who
has access to a BMS, at what level and through which operator devices.
3.2.35 Number of characters of password will not be less than five.
3.2.36 Password time-out will be not more than half an hour.
3.2.37 Database save feature to copy the system database onto a separate storage medium,
usually a disk, will be provided.

scripting languages, the SCADA software shall have a facility that allows the scheduling
of activities on a Calendar basis. This facility shall typically be used to perform routine
activities which help minimize power usage such as turning off lights and heating out -of-
hours and on public holidays.
The solution offered shall seamlessly integrate with the SCADA software for data
acquisition via the SCADA Server I/O subsystem. It is not acceptable for the solution to
acquire or write data directly from the field devices, increasing both the network and
processing load for the field controllers.
The scheduler functionality shall be configured from a Calendar view using simple point-
and-click configuration. It shall not be necessary to program code to configure the
scheduler. It shall support daily, weekly, monthly or annual recurring
events. It shall support up to 20 special days during the year to account for irregular
events, such as public holidays. It shall support up to 200 different programs which can
each be called from multiple schedules. It shall be capable of interacting and adjusting
SCADA tags via expressions within a scheduled event.
For testing and diagnostics purposes, it shall be possible to quickly and simply manually
initiate programs independently of the automated schedule. Manually triggered events
shall not interrupt scheduled events or programs.
