The BACnet 135 standard defines a network layer
allowing multiple BACnet networks to send and
receive messages over a single BACnet
internetwork without concern for different data links.
Interconnecting two BACnet networks requires a
BACnet router and Contemporary Controls provides
three models of BACnet routers — the BASrouter,
Portable BASrouter and the BASrouterLX. Information
about each model — such as functionality and
capability — can be found on individual data sheets.
This application guide provides examples of common
BACnet routing applications and how each of these
routers can be used to solve a particular need. Because some of these applications involve
connections to the Internet and the sub-netting of
IP networks, Contemporary Controls’ EIPR-E IP
Router is used in some of the examples. To aid in
understanding the required configuration of the
equipment, web page configuration screens are
shown with the proper settings. Eleven application
examples are provided. For convenience,
reference material on the three BACnet routers
can be found at the back of the application guide.
