Configuration for BACnet client has three sections: General Configuration, Devices Configuration and Gateway
Mode.
•
General Configuration
In this section, following parameters should be configured:
1.
Device Name
. Name of the device in the bacnet network (‘object name’ property of device object)
2.
Device Instance
. Instance number of the device in the bacnet network (instance number property of device
object)
3.
Password
.
BACnet password of the device to execute service ‘Device Management – Restart’, sent by other
device in the BACnet network.
4.
Sequential comms
. Enables sequential communication with other BACnet server devices. This is, no new
request will be initiated from Intesis until response to last request has been received. This becomes
necessary in case of communication with BACnet MSTP devices behind a BACnet IP to MSTP router, as no
concurrent transactions are possible in MSTP.
•
Gateway Mode
In this section, following parameters should be configured:
1.
Mode
. Select whether Intesis is going to connect with BACnet IP or BACnet MSTP. Rest of parameters in
the section will be different depending on this.
2.
(Mode IP) UDP Port
. UDP port that will be used for BACnet IP communication. It defaults to 47808 (0xBAC0)
3.
(Mode IP) Network Role
. Related to capability of the device of communicating with devices from other
networks. Disabled, Foreign Device or BBMD are the possible choices. In case of Foreign Device, IP of the
BBMD where it will connect needs to be entered, as well as TTL (time-to-live). In case of selecting BBMD,
table of BBMD’s in the BACnet network needs to be entered.
4.
(Mode MSTP) Max Masters
. Highest MAC address of BACnet MSTP master device in the MSTP line.
5.
(Mode MSTP) Max Info Frames
. Max number of frames that the device can send out to the network when
it receives token in the MSTP line.
6.
(Mode MSTP) Baudrate
. Baudrate of the BACnet MSTP link.
7.
(Mode MSTP) MAC Address
. MAC address of Intesis as BACnet MSTP device in the MSTP line.
•
Devices Configuration
In this section, a single entry for which BACnet server device the Intesis is to communicate with needs to be entered.
In Signals table, each signal will need to be associated with the device it will be read to/written from.
