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.
6. TENANT OVERRIDE PROGRAM
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.

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.
After a short period of time, and this time period is dependent upon
the CPU speed of your Windows-based computer and the speed of
your IP connection to the internet, the Tenant Override Connection
Dialog Box will appear.
connection is done on a higher address port number than normal
(WCC III connection is port number 39289) to help reduce the risk
of computer hacking.
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

exe program, but instead you will be connected to the Tenant
Override Set Password Dialog Screen within a new window. This
connection to the Tenant Override Set Password Dialog Screen is
not an actual IP connection, but rather a “dummy” Tenant Override
Set Password Dialog screen. 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.
Port Number:
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.
