BACnet properties
In BACnet, components and systems are considered to be black boxes which contain a
number of objects. BACnet objects only stipulate the behavior outside the device, BACnet
sets no internal functions.
A range of object types and their instances represent one component.
Each BACnet device has precisely one BACnet device object. An NSAP (Network Service
Access Point - comprising network number and MAC address; MAC:
M
edium
A
ccess
C
ontrol) uniquely identifies a BACnet device. This address is BACnet-specific and must not
be confused with the Ethernet MAC address.
Data exchange with the client
The inverter receives control commands and setpoints via service instructions from the
control and transmits its status back to the control. The inverter can also send telegrams
automatically itself, respectively execute services, e.g. I-Am.
Communication settings
● The Control Unit supports BACnet via RS485 (BACnet MS/TP),
