BACnet Gateway-3 Installation and Operation Manual - P/N: 53372:Rev: A 5/6/09
The BACNet Gateway Configuration Tool now displays the remaining configurable
settings for the BACnet GW-3. Click the fields under the Value heading to enter
appropriate values, following the guidelines in the following steps.
Gateway Properties
•
We recommend you select the
Life Safety
Notification Type if your system supports it.
Otherwise, virtually all clients support Multi State notification.
•
Set the NCM address to a nonzero number.
•
If you are adding the BACnet GW-3 to a network that already includes another gateway or
gateways, assign the Network Number based on the highest Network Number used by any
gateway already on the network. The Network Number for the new BACnet GW-3 must be
greater than the highest Network Number by
one thousand
. For example, if the network
already includes a gateway with a Network Number of 1001, then the lowest Network Number
which can be assigned to the new BACnet GW-3 is 2001.
BBMD Configuration
•
If the BACnet GW-3 and the Building Management System (BMS) are connected to the IP
network across different subnets, they must be connected through a BACnet Broadcast
Management Device (BBMD). When using a BBMD, set the Foreign Device value to
True
and enter values for IP Address, Port and Register Time.
