Helvar 435 BACnet Gateway: User Guide

1.
Introduction
The 435 BACnet Gateway provides a simple interface to a Helvar router system and allows lighting
system data to appear in a BACnet Building energy Management System (BeMS).
Note:
Typically, individual systems (energy control, lighting, boiler and air-conditioning
systems, etc.) are measured separately for CO

accountability. Therefore, installing the
BACnet Gateway and combining the various systems can help an effective BeMS be
more energy efficient and comply with national building regulations.
The 435 allows a Building Management System (BMS) or BeMS to control and monitor the lighting
system as well as obtain device status and group power consumption information. BACnet/IP
clients can easily connect with the gateway via a TCP/IP network.
