The BACnet driver also implements the BACnet Server interface. This definition file is used to configure the mapping of Server Items to BACnet objects. Each valid configuration line represents one mapping and thus creates one BACnet object within the NETx Server. The structure of the BACnet mapping definition file is as follows:
| Info |
|---|
Each line – except comment lines that start with ' – defines a single BACnet mapping and thus one create BACnet object. |
|
|
| Scope | Unit | Default value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | ItemId | The ItemID of the Server Item that shall be mapped to a BACnet Object. | ItemID | None | |
2 | ObjectName | The BACnet object name for the newly created BACnet object. Note that the BACnet object name must be unique within the server. If omitted, the ItemID is used as object name. | String | None | ItemID |
3 | Relinquish-default | Specifies the relinquish-default property of the BACnet object. This value is used by the server in case all BACnet priorities are set to NULL. | any | None | 0 |
4 | COV Increment | Specifies the minimum data change that is needed to send BACnet Change-of-Value notifications. If omitted, any data change is transmitted. | Number | None | 0 |
5 | Object type | Specifies the type of the BACnet object. If omitted, the NETx BMS Core Server automatically detects the BACnet object type that fits best to the used Server Item. | BACnet type | None | empty |
6 | Object ID | Specifies the Object ID of the created BACnet object. The Object ID and the Object type must be unique within the NETx BMS Core Server. If omitted, an auto-increment ID is used. | BACnet Object ID | None | empty |
7 | Units | None | |||
8 | State Text | Comma-separated list of texts that are mapped to BACnet properties: <active-text>,<inactive-text> | String,String | None | empty |
9 | Description | Text that are mapped to BACnet property description. | String | None | empty |
After start-up, the NETx Server writes a list of all created BACnet into the following log file: <WorkspaceDirectory>\LogFiles\xio.BACnet.ObjectList.log
The structure of this file is as follows:
| Info |
|---|
Each line – except comment lines that start with ' – corresponds to one created BACnet object. |
Col# | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
1 | Object ID | BACnet Object ID of the created BACnet object. |
2 | Object type | BACnet Object type of the created object is listed. |
3 | ObjectName | BACnet Object name of the newly created BACnet object. |
4 | ItemId | ItemID of the Server Item that is linked to the created BACnet Object. |
