If the connected Open controllers are using autogenerate, then their settings will be:
• BACnet MS/TP Network Number = 200
• BACnet Device Instance Number = 200yy
• BACnet Device Instance Name = device200yy
• BACnet MS/TP MAC Address = yy
To set up BACnet Broadcast Management Devices (BBMDs)
If your system has multiple routers that reside on different IP subnets, you must set up one router on each IP
subnet as a BACnet/IP Broadcast Management Device (BBMD).
Every subnet with a router must have a BBMD configured in order for broadcasts from routers on that subnet to
reach the rest of the routers on the network.
NOTES
• The i-Vu® Standard or Plus application - If the i-Vu® web server is on a separate subnet than the rest of the
routers, the internal router must be assigned a routable IP address and configured as a BBMD.
• The i-Vu® Pro application - If the i-Vu® Pro server is on a separate subnet than the rest of the routers, you
must register it as a foreign device to a router acting as a BBMD device.
