TS8020 | TwinCAT BACnet/IP

BACnet (Building Automation Control Network) is a standardized, manufacturer-independent communication protocol for building automation. Areas of application include HVAC, lighting control, safety and fire alarm technology. Implementation of this protocol can be carried out as a server as well as a client and can be run on all Beckhoff Industrial PCs and Embedded PCs. All services of a B-BC (BACnet Building Controller) are supported such as for example, common data use (DS), alarm and event processing (AE), time-tabling (SCHED), trend recording (T) as well as device and network management (DM). BACnet revisions 6 and 12 are supported for TwinCAT 2. Therefore the use for new projectes is not recommended.
