BACnet mapping allows you to map any datapoint to BACnet. That is, the NETx BMS Server acts as a BACnet device (BACnet server) and provides the mapped datapoints as BACnet objects. These BACnet objects can the be accessed by other BACnet clients.

Driver Configuration

In the BMS Studio go to BACnet / Driver configuration. Here you set up driver settings so that the BMS Server is found as a BACnet device:

These settings can also be set in the file <WorkspaceDirectory>\ConfigFiles\xio.BACnet.cfg.
