About the BACnet Protocol

The BACnet protocol is accepted as an ISO standard for building automation and control systems. The protocol defines a number of data link /physical layers, including ARCNET, Ethernet, BACnet/IP, Point-To-Point over RS-232, Master-Slave/Token-Passing over RS-485, and LonTalk. These networks may then be further interconnected by BACnet routers.

Note: The BACNET driver is designed to communicate to BACnet networks and devices using only BACnet/IP transport option.
