Setpoint Search Example

​You want to search for all setpoints , that are over 22, in all offices. You know that all setpoints 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.

In the search field enter *setpoint*, this includes all objects containing “setpoint”. If you enter only the word setpoint, without the asterisks (*) you do not find objects named “office setpoint” or “setpoint_office_1”.

You only want to search in University X, not in University Y, therefore you limit the search to University X. To do this you browse to University X in the In folder box.

​To avoid all other hits, for example graphics with links that are named “setpoint” you should filter on the object type Point. This is done in the Select Types dialog box.

If you perform a search now, you find all object types that are Points and named “setpoints” in any way. To filter out only the setpoints with a value of 22 or more we should set up a condition using the Select Conditions dialog box. We set the value to be greater than or equal to 22.

​When all search criteria are set, we perform the search. The result is presented in the Search result list.

​To be able to use the search once again without going through all the settings once again we save the search with the name “Setpoints over 22”.
