The RVE tab in the multistate Row Edit dialog box is used to configure the checking of the point’s rule sets. Any commands for the point are intercepted by the Rules Validation Engine (RVE), which determines if a command is allowed to proceed or not.

Select the desired record from the list of configured records in the RVE Rules Set (RVE Rules Set) table. |
|
Rules Set Enabled |
Select this checkbox to enable checking of the selected rule set when a point is commanded. |
|

Select this checkbox to cause alarms to be generated if a rule in the rule set is violated. |
|

Select this checkbox to cause events to be generated if a rule in the rule set is violated. |
|
Timeout (ms) |
Enter the number of milliseconds to allow RVE rule checking to complete. If this field is set to 0, no RVE timeout is configured; however any timeout set for Business Logic Tier (BLT) components will still apply. |
|
Severity |
Set the severity associated with alarms generated by RVE. The default severity is "high". |
Note: RVE rule checking is bypassed on fnputs issued from a command line. RVE rule checking is only performed on commands that are issued through the RVE BLT or the Analog Control dialog box.
