BACnet

Require: IP-Symcon >= 6.3

Warning

The BACnet module is a paid extension that can be purchased for any existing Symcon license in the Shop. Up to 3 BACnet objects can be created free of charge for each Symcon license.

The BACnet (client) connection allows the comfortable setup of BACnet devices within Symcon. Thereby all BACnet devices available in the local network are searched via a discovery instance and created accordingly. In the next step each created device is queried and the data points available on the device are displayed. Any data points can be created or in the simplest case all data points can be imported into Symcon. The data points show the "Present Value", which is updated automatically via COV, provided the device supports this. Alternatively, the value can also be queried cyclically. The value can also be changed via visualization, script and flowchart.

The BACnet (server) allows to bring any variables from Symcon to BACnet via a configurator. The available data points can be read out automatically by the client and COV is also supported by the server accordingly. Symcon can also be automatically recognized as BACnet devices in the network.
