Environmental supervision turns measurements or contact states into clearly named room-service indications. A sensor measures a condition; the supervisory function decides whether the assigned alarm or control response is needed.","In a switchroom, water ingress, temperature, humidity and equipment-service alarms can be sent to the station controller with separate point names so an operator can identify the affected area.
