Use the advanced search to filter and refine a search so you don’t get too many irrelevant results.
Applying a filter means that you set up rules that specify what kind of objects are relevant to the search. These rules can be based on object types and object properties.
You can use wildcards in both Simple search and Advanced search. Use wildcards to substitute characters or combinations of characters in a search.
Search supports three wildcards:
Asterisk (*) represents any combination of characters including white space. * must be used if the text string you search for contains white space. For example, if you want to search for object names as "temperature setpoint" or "setpoint office" make sure that you use "*" in the end or in the beginning of the word "setpoint".
Question mark (?) represents any single character.
Square brackets “[]” search for all characters that stands inside the brackets.
For example, if you want to find all objects and properties containing the word “Temperature”, you start the search with an asterisk so that the search includes all hits on objects like “Outside Air Temperature” where the asterisk represents the words before "Temperature", in this case, “Outside Air”. You also have to end the search text with an asterisk to include objects like “Temperature Alarm” where the asterisk represents the word after "Temperature", in this case “Alarm”.
If you search on [a,b]*, you find all objects that begins with an a or a b.
You can also search on objects that start with numbers using square brackets. For example, a search on [0-9]* finds all objects that starts with a number. A search on [1,2,3]* finds all objects that starts with 1, 2, or 3.
The Search box can never be empty. To perform a search, you have to enter something in the Search box. If you want to search for all objects in a folder, enter an asterisk (*).

When searching in a multi-server system, you can include sub servers in the search. If any sub server is offline, you get an indication at the bottom of the search result list. The indication displays the number of offline sub servers of the total number of sub servers. The message also contains a link to the Servers folder. By clicking the link, you can find out exactly which server has gone offline.
By default, searching for forced values looks for values that were forced from within the Building Operation system, that is in the database.
You can also search for forced values in the SmartStruxure server devices. In this case, search looks for values that were forced from outside the Building Operation system, for example, on the device.
Values that were forced from outside the Building Operation system do not always show up when searching the database. When you search In device , each device is thoroughly searched. This may take several minutes to complete.

You can select the object types that you want to include in the search. If you do not select a type, all types are included. For example, if you want to search on all graphics containing bindings named "temperature" you include only graphics in the search. A search without the object type graphics selected results in a list with all objects, such as values, graphics, and alarms named "temperature".
You can set conditions on object properties that you want to include in the search.

You want to search for all setpoints , that are over 22, in all offices. You know that all setpoint are marked “setpoint” in some way, such as “office setpoint”, “setpoint office”, and “temperature setpoint”. When the search is done, you want to save the search so that you can use it again without making all settings for objects and conditions.

The search result list can be sorted and grouped in a number of ways. You can also add and remove columns from the list. Using Properties , you can also open the properties for all objects in the list.
