Section 8: System integr ation and networ king
Topics in this section cover integrating the controllers into a building automation network.
These are advanced reference topics for control technicians and engineers.
The controllers can be installed as standalone controllers or they can be connected to a
BACnet MS/TP network. The topics in this section are reference material for control
technicians or engineers who are planning, installing, and setting up controllers that are
connected to a network.
In addition to the information in this section, you will also need the following information.
l Detailed plans and drawings for the building automation system.
l Information about the facility LAN including routers, switches, and network firewalls.
l Sequences of operation for other BACnet devices that will monitor or interact with
SimplyVAV controllers.

Connecting to an MS/TP network
SimplyVAV controllers are BACnet MS/TP compliant controllers. Connect them only to a
BACnet MS/TP network.
To enter the BACnet device instance, MAC address, and network baud, see the topic
Setting up network communications on page 65.
