Forced Values
When you force a value, all input from the system is overridden. For example, a schedule is set to start a fan at 09:00 but you want it to start at 08:00. In this case, you can force the fan to start at 08:00.
You can manually release a forced value at any time or you can automate the release, using a Timed Force utility object to specify the duration or end time of the force. For more information, see Timed Force Objects . When you release a forced value, the value returns to its normal status.
A forced value is indicated by orange color in the properties dialog boxes. In the List View and in the Watch pane, a forced value is indicated by a pointing hand
You can view the unforced value, which is the real value from the system, at any time. For more information, see Viewing an Unforced Value .
