Appendix C. Vendor Information
Appendix C.1. McQuay
McQuay Units are shipped with a default Device instance of the last 6 digits of the McQuay Serial number.
Appendix C.2. Trane
When new points are added to the FieldServer it is important to restart the Summit Workstation or BCU, otherwise
these new points may not be seen by the FieldServer.
Disconnect the FieldServer from the BACnet network when transferring images to the BCU.
Appendix C.3. Liebert
Polling BACnet addresses that are not configured for Liebert systems may cause the connection to fail in older
versions of Liebert. Please contact your Liebert supplier for more information.
Appendix C.4. Automated Logic Corporation.
When an ALC module is powered up, and it does not detect valid BACnet/MSTP traffic on its MSTP port, then the
module goes into a terminal mode and MSTP communications will not be intitiated.
When connecting the FieldServer to an ALC BACnet/MSTP module, always start the FieldServer first. Wait until the
RUN Led is flashing on the FieldServer before powering up the MSTP module.
Appendix C.5. Honeywell EBI
Honeywell EBI cannot process EventNotifications with ACK_Required set to 1. The ACK_Required property of
Notification Class Map Descriptors configured for use with EBI must therefore be set to 0.
Appendix C.6. Using Cimetrics Explorer
Cimetrics Explorer needs to be configured to use either BACnet Ethernet or BACnet IP. This is not a setting in the
actual Cimetrics BACnet Explorer, but is done in the Cimetrics BACstac Protocol that can be found in the Local Area
Connection Properties as shown below:
