Hi Pier,

I am able to discover MP172 BACnet device and objects into EBO. 

i have one issue about alarm and reset text Message of BI object. These are not propertied in ESME to add.

Hi,

the string fields can be edited only from the PLC (they are read-only)

You can double check on the PICS which properties are implemented (https://www.bacnetinternational.net/btl/index.php?m=266) - they are in line with the AAC profile.

Please contact me directly to investigate further and then we can report here the findings.

Thank you.

Hi Anawat,

As discussed, the best in this case is to use a workaround, as by using a mirror point and alarm object in EBO system.

Hello, 

we are using Bacnet Library 2.3 version within M172 controllers for AHU application and we experience random disconnections from the network. We've moved Bacnet task from background to timed task (we believe their priority is higher), also made longer timeouts on Bacnet line in AS-P, situation got a lot better, but not perfect - disconnections still occurs. Do you have any ideas ?

Thank you.

Hi,

I couldn't find the ModBUS_Addons_M172P_O library in the mentioned folder, neither in ESME HVAC V1.1 nor V1.4.

Is there some place else it can be found?

Hi,
