7.5.3.2 Building and Viewing a Project
After you have edited each M2BPS that you have added to your project, you are ready
to build the project by clicking the Build Project button. Once you click this button, the
Project Builder will create a CSV file that you will later load into the BAS Remote.
Building the CSV can take some time
— the more devices in your project, the longer it
will take. Each device profile will take a few seconds to render into CSV. When the
build is complete, a new window will open and confirm the build.
After the project is built, see the results by clicking the View Built Project button in the
upper-right portion of Figure 46. In response to your click, a new worksheet opens to
display the contents of the CSV file that was just built. A sample screen is shown in
Figure 48 and is discussed below.
Figure 48
— Sample Built Project
Each row in the worksheet displays how one Modbus Variable has been mapped to a
BACnet Object. The information in the columns is as follows:
Column A This is how the COV flag was set — either NO or YES.
Column B This is the chosen COV Increment value (999999.9 if COV is set to NO).
Column C This BACnet Object Name is a concatenation of two values from the
M2BPS (Description or Location and Name) and a third value generated by
Project Builder. This third value takes the form of mxxxx, which is the letter
m plus four digits appended to assure that the Object Name is unique.
Column D This is the Modbus Address (ID).
Column E This is the Modbus Register value.
Column F This is the Modbus Register Type (number format).
Column G This is the BACnet Object to which the Modbus Variable was mapped.
Column H This is the BACnet Instance that was created by Project Builder.
Column I This is the unit of measure that was selected.
Note: Six more columns (J –O) are present, but are reserved for future use.
