Description
1.1 Introduction
This document describes the integration of BACnet MSTP and BACnet IP installations into ASCII serial (EIA232 or
EIA485) or ASCII IP compatible devices and systems using the Intesis
ASCII Server
– BACnet Client
gateway.
The aim of this integration is to make accessible BACnet system signals and resources from any system capable to be
programmed to read and write simple text messages through EIA232 or EIA485 serial port or Ethernet TCP/IP port (for
example Extron, LiteTouch systems).
The gateway acts as a BACnet IP Client device in its BACnet interface, reading/writing points of other BACnet IP
device(s), and offering this point's values of BACnet device(s) through its ASCII interface using simple ASCII messages.
The readings into the BACnet device(s) performed by the gateway can be by polling or by subscription (COV).
Configuration is carried out using the configuration software Intesis
TM
MAPS.
This document assumes that the user is familiar with ASCII and BACnet technologies and their technical terms.
