Configuring BACnet Device Instance and network number
All BACnet Open controllers must have a unique Device Instance and Name. These BACnet addresses are
automatically generated and usually do not require modification. However, sometimes you need to override the
automatic addressing assignments.
Autogenerated addressing scheme:
The i-Vu® Open Router's rotary address setting determines the automatic BACnet addressing scheme for the
connected Open network.
Legend
16 = Carrier's BACnet Vendor ID
xx = i-Vu® Open Router's rotary switch address (BACnet Device Instance address)
yy = Open controller's rotary switch address (MS/TP MAC address)
For the i-Vu® Open Router:
•
BACnet Device Instance Number = 1600xx
•
BACnet Device Instance Name = device1600xx
•
BACnet IP Network Number = 1600
•
BACnet MS/TP Network Number = 161xx
•
BACnet ARC156 Network Number = 163xx
•
Port S1 MS/TP MAC Address = 0 (fixed)
For the Open controllers connected to the i-Vu® Open Router
•
BACnet MS/TP Device Instance Number = 161xxyy
•
BACnet ARC156 Device Instance Number = 163xxyy
•
BACnet MS/TP Device Instance Name = device161xxyy
•
BACnet ARC156 Device Instance Name = device163xxyy
•
BACnet MS/TP or ARC156 MAC Address = yy
•
BACnet MS/TP Network Number = 161xx (learned from the router, defaults to 16101 if no i-Vu® Open Router
is operating)
If the BACnet automatic settings need to be changed, launch the Router Configuration utility using a terminal
program. See To assign a custom IP address (page 7) for instructions on connecting to and using a terminal
program.
To change the BACnet settings:
1
Enter the BACnet selection# from the menu. Type the new setting and click Enter . The new setting will appear
on the Router Configuration screen.
2
Cycle power to the router for the new settings to take effect.
NOTE If the BACnet MS/TP or ARC156 network number of the router is assigned and not auto-generated,
and the Open controllers connected to that router are set such that their BACnet settings are auto-generated,
then the Open controller BACnet settings will be auto-generated based on the assigned MS/TP network
number in the router:
Example A router's BACnet MS/TP or ARC156 network has been assigned to 200.
