2.4  Points definition 

 
Every point defined in Intesis has the following BACnet features associated to it: 
 

Feature 

Description 

BACnet Device 

BACnet  device  to  which  belongs  the  point,  from  a  list  of  BACnet  devices  that  can  be 
defined in Intesis (up to 16).  
 
For  every  BACnet  device  defined,  a  virtual  signal  is  created  automatically  in  Intesis  to 
inform about the communication with the BACnet device, this signal is available also from 
the ASCII interface like the rest of points. 
 

BACnet object type 

BACnet  object  type  for  the  point.  It  can  be  one  of  the  following  BACnet  object  types 
supported by Intesis: 
 
AI = Analog Input. 
AO = Analog Output. 
AV = Analog Value. 
DI = Digital Input. 
DO = Digital Output. 
DV = Digital Value. 
MI = Multistate Input. 
MO = Multistate Output. 
MV = Multistate Value. 
LOOP = Loop 
ACCUM = Accumulator 
 

Consult documentation of BACnet device(s) to integrate for information about BACnet object types of the points 
desired to integrate. 

BACnet object instance 

BACnet object instance for the point on the external BACnet device.  

Consult documentation of BACnet  device(s) to integrate for information about BACnet  object instance of the 
points desired to integrate. 

 
Note that configuration tool used with Intesis enables for discovery of existing BACnet devices in the network, as well 
as  their  BACnet objects  and  types,  which  can  be  later  directly  added  in  configuration. This  facilitates  the  process  of 
choosing suitable parameters above for every BACnet object on every BACnet device to integrate.
