SECTION 6: TENANT O VERRIDE PROGRAM (SS5024)
____________________________________________________ The Tenant Override Program provides a means for an end user,
or Tenant to override specifi c WCC III control point(s) via the internet with a very simplistic interface that WattMaster Controls has developed.
This is mainly used for after hours billing of equipment usage, and the timed usage of said equipment is then kept track for each and every tenant in this manner. A separate secure program is then used to retrieve this data.

Installing the Program
Please note: That there are two possible ways of installing
the T enant Override software—from the main WCC III installation CD installation disk – WM part # DM1W C0 11 ­01 X and from the Standalone Tenant Override CD installation disk – WM part # DM1 W C0 1 3-01X. The WM part # denotes the software version for the installation CD and is typically A to Z. The standalone version (WM part # DM1W C0 1 3-01 X) allows the Building Contractor or build management company to distribute this Tenant Override Installation software to the end user/tenant for unassisted overrides.

Running the Program
How to Start or Run the T enantOverride.exe Program (SS5024)
The TenantOverride.exe shortcut icon should have been installed on your WCC III Front end computer desktop using either the WCC III Installation Software CD (Part # DM1WC011-01X) or the WCC III Tenant Override Installation Software CD (Part # DM1WC013-01X). To start the TenantOverride.exe program, double click the left mouse button on the Shortcut Icon on the Windows desktop.

By selecting <OK>, the TenantOverride.exe program will now start to connect to the selected WCC III – MCD via this selected IP address connection. It should bring up the Tenant Override Set Password Dialog Screen within a new window. If the IP address connection fails to connect to the WCC III – MCD, then another small dialog box window will appear. This is the Cannot Communicate to Backtask Dialog Box.
If you click <Yes>, you will exit the TenantOverride.exe program. You will have to fi gure out why you cannot connect to the WCC III – MCD via the IP address connection.
If you click <No>, you will not exit the Tenant Override. exe program, but instead you will be connected to the Tenant Override Set Password Dialog Screen within a new window.

Once you click <OK>, you will be connected to the WCC III T enant Override Scr een. This connection to the WCC III - MCD is not an actual IP connection, but rather a “dummy” Tenant Override Screen with no values. This “dummy” Tenant Override Screen will allow you to view and see what the actual TenantOverride.exe screen will look like – minus any data.
Server IP Address:
This is the static IP address of the WCC III – MCD. An IP Address is like a phone number on the world wide web. The IP address for the WCC III – MCD must be Static (does not change) as opposed to Dynamic (constantly changing). This static IP address must be provided by your internet service provider. (A static IP address is the preferred IP connection method for the WCC III system to function.) If you actually know the static IP address of the WCC III – MCD that you wish to connect to, please enter it here in the Server IP Address fi eld.
You can use a Dynamic IP Address with the WCC III – MCD, but you must then have what is called a static “Host Name”. This static “Host name” must then be provided by your internet service provider and is limited to 58 total characters.

The TenantOverride.exe program opens a two-way, secure communications port that then allows for communication between WCC III – MCD and the TenantOverride.exe program that is running on the WCC III Front end computer. This IP Address

T enant Override Request
The Tenant Override Request Screen is a simple to use interface screen that allows the end user to override predefi ned control points with in the WCC III system. The WCC III System can keep track of the override periods and that generally allows for after hours tenant billing of the used equipment.
Selecting an Override
An override is accomplished by selecting the check box that is located next to the desired override group and then clicking
<OK>.
There are three possible selectable overrides: Override Light Group, Override Heat Group, and Override A/C Group. These overrides must fi rst be pre-programmed by the Controls Contractor and/or the building management company to override the desired WCC III control point(s). Each Override Group can override a single WCC III control point or up to fi ve WCC III control points with this Tenant Override program.
Override Hour
There is but one duration time for the all three overrides on this screen.
If you wanted to override the A/C group for 4 hours and the Light Group for 6 hours, it is possible. First you would log into the Tenant Override program with the correct Access Code and Personal Code and then select the Override A/C group check box with a time duration for 4 hours in the Override Hour Time box. You would then select the <OK> button to active the Override A/C Group and then exit the WCC III Tenant Override program. Then you would immediately log in again to the Tenant Override program with the correct Access Code and Personal Code and then select the Override Light Group check box with a time duration for 6 hours in the Override Hour Time box, select <OK> to active the Override Light Group and then exit the WCC III Tenant Override program.
