Configuring the BCI-R
20 RF-SVN03F-EN
Managing Device Units on the
Controller Units Screen
The BCI-R device units can be viewed and managed on the
Controller Units screen from either the BACnet Setup Tool
or Tracer TU.
When the BCI-R first powers up, or after the controller has
been cleared, a
list of points (the role document) is created
from the information supplied to the BCI-R from the
ReliaTel RTRM module through the Modbus link.
Note: The BCI-R creates
the role document immediately
(often within one second).
Immediately after the points are created, the device units
are set and
saved and appear on the Controller Units
screen. The values that correspond to the device units are
set to default to SI values. In some cases, the Custom radio
button may be selected; however, the device units will still
default to SI.
If you are using Tracer TU to change the Device Units to IP
by
clearing the
controller, it is best to either unplug the
Modbus cable to the BCI-R, or to power down the entire
unit (the BCI-R). By doing this, the BCI-R will not see
Modbus traffic. This method will enable the Device Units
radio button selection, which allows you to make changes.
