• Each BBMD in a site will require a copy of the BDT for the site. The
site BDT lists only the BBMDs for that site.
• When more than one Tracer Summit site resides on an IP subnet,
each site should use a unique UDP port number.
BACnet/IP routers
Installations with BCUs (BMTS) or other BACnet devices that are not IP
capable will require the installation of a BACnet/IP router (Ethernet:
4950-0472; ARCNET: 4950-0471). Follow these rules regarding routers:
The BACnet devices on each side of the BACnet/IP router (the dedi-
•
cated-network side and the shared-network side) require unique
BACnet network numbers. Additionally, all dedicated-network
BACnet devices must have the same BACnet network number and all
shared-network BACnet devices must have the same BACnet net-
work number. These numbers can be set up in site configuration.
The router(s) will require IP configuration.

Connecting a service laptop computer to an IP network
In order to connect to an IP network, the laptop computer needs the
proper IP setup information. This information can vary depending on
where you connect on the network. This can be a particular challenge for
laptop computers that are used as service tools. Guidelines are as follows:
The owner's IS staff can provide details for how to connect to different
•
locations on the network. You may need to change the IP setup infor-
mation as you move around the building.
You may wish to carry a small Ethernet hub. This will allow you to
•
connect to the network by temporarily installing the hub between the
network jack and the BCU.
