Table 2 shows the different possibilities with the Status LED behaviour for a BACnet module.

Condition of the Status LED

Possible Cause

Solution

BACnet communication NOT active
at default MAC address = 254

Change MAC address to
another value from 0 to 127

 1 short blink

A VT7600 BACnet module has
been installed on a VT7300
thermostat

Install a VT7300 BACnet
module on the thermostat

A VT7300 module has been
installed on a VT7600 thermostat

Install the BACnet module on
a VT7300 thermostat model

 2 short blink (no wires

connected to the module)

The right module has been installed
on the right thermostat model

N/A

 2 short blink (wires

connected to the module)

Module is not at the same baud
rate as the network

Power off and on the
thermostat

 2 short blinks and a longer

blink (wires connected to
the module)

The module has detected the
presence of a network

N/A

 Right after power is

applied: 2 long blinks and
then no blinking

Polarity has been reversed at the

Default Device Name and default Device ID


Default Device Name is set to: Model number

– MAC:

 Where MAC is the current MAC address of the device.
 Where Model number is Viconics part number.


The device name will be upgraded as soon as there is a change to the device MAC address.

The Device Name and Device ID properties are writable in Viconics’ device object. Both properties can be
renamed from any BACnet network management tool as long as the tool itself can write to these properties.

VT7200X Models

Default Device ID is set to: 72000 + MAC

 Where MAC is the current MAC address of the device.


The device ID will also be upgraded as soon as there is a change to the device’s MAC.

For example, when a VT7200F5000B thermostat with a MAC address of 41 is connected to a network, its
default Device Name will be VT7200F5x00B-41 and its default Device ID will be 72041.


VT73xxX Models

Default Device ID is set to: 73000 + MAC

 Where MAC is the current MAC address of the device.


The device ID will also be upgraded as soon as there is a change to the device’s MAC.

For example, when a VT7300C5000B thermostat with a MAC address of 63 is connected to a network, its
default Device Name will be VT7300C5x00B-63 and its default Device ID will be 73063.
