Report Descriptions

History Graph

Shows the same graph you would get by going to the History button on the Point Program Screen of any point. Select up to 4 points to graph at a time.

History Report

Gives the user a text listing each time a save is made to the history file. Includes Date, Time, and value of point. Select as many points as you want.

Alarm Activity

Only available in Real Mode, this report can be run for all points or selected points and shows all alarms that occurred during the specified time period.

User Activity Report

Lists what a given user or users did over the specified time period, including viewing and commanding points. The report includes date, time, user, and command, and can be focused by point, user, and command type.

Command Report

Lists what user commanded what points over the specified time period. Choose All Points or points can be specified.

Points Report

This report is a snapshot of Text View and can be sorted the same way as Text View: All Points, Logical Groups, etc.

For each point it shows the Name, Status, Priority, Condition, and whether or not each of the following is

programmed: Alarm, Detail (Notepad), PID, and Schedule.

Under the Points Report menu, there are three new reports listed: Time of Day, Trend, and Daily Schedule.

Time of Day report

This new report allows you to choose pairs of points and choose up to 24 hourly times to report on them. The Report was created to serve hospitals that by law are required to keep a record of temperature and humidity in operating rooms. This Report can be found on the Points Report submenu.

Trend Report

This report was also created for hospitals. It allows hospital design engineers to select up to 10 points and report the value of those points on a time interval of as little as 15 minutes up to 4 hours. The report can be saved in 2 formats: csv and pdf., or it can be printed to the screen. This Report can also be found on the Points Report submenu.

Daily Scheduled Report

This Report exports the selected points into a .csv (comma separated values) format and separates the numbers and units into 2 separate fields. It can be scheduled to run daily, providing you with an easy way to export
information to spread sheets and other document types. This Report can be found on the Points Report submenu.

Hardware Report

This report shows all Hardware, Software, and Child points on all or selected controllers. Choose to show or hide Software points and narrow controllers in the report by Channel or individual controller.

IP Address Report

The new report gives a list of all TCP/IP Controllers in the database, in order by IP address. This report will come in handy when adding controllers to a large database, or one with multiple TCP/IP Channels.

Degree Day Report

Choose a temperature point and the report will give the Min, Max, Mean, and Average values for each day in the time period chosen, as well as other calculations.

Meter Report

Applies to pulse meters. See the following sections for information on this report: Meter Reports and Advanced Programming, Pulse Meters.

Extended Meter Report

See details in Extended Meter Report, later in this section.

Alarm Report

This report shows what alarms are programmed on points and how they are programmed. It can be sorted the same as Text View: All Points, Logical Groups, etc.

Logic Report

This report shows what logic is programmed on points and shows that logic. It can be sorted the same way that Text View can be sorted: All Points, Logical Groups, etc.

PID Report

This report shows what PIDs are programmed on points and how they are programmed. It can be sorted the same way that Text View can be sorted: All Points, Logical Groups, etc.

Schedule (Overtime) Report

This report shows what Overtimes are programmed on points and how they are programmed. It can be sorted by point and time period.

Schedule (Weekly) Report

This report shows what Overtimes are programmed on points and how they are programmed. It can be sorted the same way that Text View can be sorted: All Points, Logical Groups, etc.

Holiday Report

The Holidays programmed in CBAS apply to all Schedule points in the database. This report shows what time each point will start and stop by schedule on those Holidays.

Notepad Report

This report shows what programming in the database is contained in Notepad. It can be sorted the same way that Text View can be sorted: All Points, Logical Groups, etc.

Print Labels

This one is useful when pulling wire for a job. Print wire labels for points on a controller by first selecting the channel, and then the controller. Use File Folder labels, 5066, 5366, etc. These labels are .5” x 3” and come in 2 columns of 15 labels per page.

FIRE Programming/Activity

These reports are only available if your CBAS license includes the CSimon FIRE Alarm System add-on.
Access Programming/Activity
These reports are only available if your CBAS license includes the Access Control system add-on.

Meter Reports

In order to print a Meter Report, you must have your counter and meter points set up correctly. This report only works with pulse meters and a certain type of Meter point. For complete instructions, see Chapter 7 – Advanced Programming, Section 2 – Meters. However, the same results can be achieved with the Extended Meter Report (next page) using only a Counter Point.

To print a report of total KWH usage over a period of time, Go to the Reports Menu on the Main Menu and choose Meter Report. Choose a starting date and time. Press escape and choose an ending date and time. Press escape and CBAS will scan for meter data during that time period and will show the report on the screen. Click on Print and the report will be printed. An example of a portion of a Meter Report is shown below:

Extended Meter Report

A new Extended Meter Report has been added to CBAS version 2.2.2. With this report, you can either do a simple KW report over a period of time, or a more complicated report comparing 2 meters and 2 temperatures. This report was designed for our Russia branch and was intended for use in determining hot water usage and associated cost. It will be up to the end user to determine new and different ways of using this report.

The original Meter Report only allows you to select a period of time, and then prints the data from all Meter Total Points in the database. This does not include Hawkeye meters on Modbus RTU channels. The Extended Meter Report allows you to select the meter points to base the report on, including Hawkeye meters and other brands of meters.

Before you can run this report, you first have to setup and save the parameters for the report. To do this from the Main Menu, go to Reports, Extended Meter Report, then Setup. Click Insert and you will see the Advanced Meter Editor.

You should give the report a name that describes which meter is used or what the calculation is, then select meter points for the report. Enter a multiplier or leave the value at 1.0 if not needed. Right-click and the report will be saved.

To run the report, go to Reports, Extended Meter Report, then Run. You will see the Meter Report Run selection Editor.

Check the “Selected Meters Only” checkbox and select your saved report(s). The reports will be listed in the top right of the editor as in the example above. If you selected more than one report to run, then you might want to give the whole report a name. Select a time period for the report and click Generate Report. The report looks something like this:
