Note: BBMDs may also be used to join together two or more virtual BACnet networks which
use different UDP ports, e.g., 47808 and 47809.
Distribute broadcasts to: If BBMD mode = Full BBMD is selected, enter the list of IP addresses (and
optional UDP ports) of other BBMD services on your BACnet network.
This list should be identical among all BBMDs -- you may safely include the AcquiSuite's own IP address
in its list. You should have at most one BBMD per IP subnet. See How Do I... Span Subnets with a
BBMD
BACnet debug information: Level of detail displayed in the AcquiSuite's Debugging Messages.
Errors & Summary (default): Log only errors and summary info. Requires the AcquiSuite’s Debugging
Messages be enabled (via System à System Log Files).
·
Transitions: Also log "transitions" such as changes to System_Status and Reliability Properties.
·
Full Debug: Also log detailed debug info. This will slow the server significantly.
·
Full Debug (AREA): Debug logging for AREA only.
Note that Full Debug can significantly slow the BACnet server and should only be used until a
problem is resolved.
4.4 Handling Unsupported Meters with the Modbus Framework
If the AcquiSuite does not recognize a Modbus meter, use the AcquiSuite’s Modbus à Framework
feature to create a custom driver.
These so-called “Framework Drivers” will work with the BACnet Server.
