Hi,
I am currently implementing BACnet IP and BACnet MS/TP on M172p PLC. I couldn't find any documentation in regards BBMD configuration.
At the moment I am using sysBACnet_BBMD block but it seems not working at all.
Any ideas??
Thanks in advance

Hi,
from M172 PICS: Device support registration as a foreign device
you can test doing something like that:
(* BBMD Service *)
(* IP 0.0.0.0 ==> BBMD disabled *)
xRet := sysBACnet_BBMD(BBMD_Ip1,BBMD_Ip2,BBMD_Ip3,BBMD_Ip4,BBMD_port,BBMD_tmo);
I suggest to check with a wireshark log.
Note that Bacnet IP and MS/TP can't be active at the same time.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I have implemented the block with the Ip address. Anything else is needed to configure BBMD ??
I am testing at the moment using YABE tool, but I don't have any BBMD device to test. I have a wireshark sniffer activated but obveously I cannot see any traffic through BBMD IP.
I am using BACnet IP / YABE to test connectivity and everything is fine, however, I am not sure if my BBMD configuration is enough to establish connection between M172P and BBMD device due to lack of documentation.
Regards,
