Network Integration
The controller in this unit can easily be integrated into a BACnet MS/TP
Building Management System. The controller will automatically detect the
baud rate of the network it is connected to after a power cycle, and will
automatically begin communications.
The MAC Address is set via the dip switches on the front of the controller.
When shipped, each unit will have a factory default MAC address with
multiple units for the same project having incremented MAC addresses.
The dip switches are numbered 1 through 8, with 1 being the LSB. The
numbering is standard binary format (switches 1 and 3 ON equals an
address of 5).
The Network Instance Number (device instance) is automatically
configured based on the MAC Address setting. The network instance
number will always be 3640+(MAC Address). For example, if the MAC
address is set to 25 the network instance number would be 364025. In the
event of a duplicate instance number on the network, simply change the
MAC address to change the instance number.
The following page has a complete listing of the BACnet points with their
descriptions.
