    Introduction The 435 BACnet Gateway provides a simple interface to a Helvar router system and allows lighting system data to appear in a BACnet Building energy Management System (BeMS). Note: Typically, individual systems (energy control, lighting, boiler and air-conditioning systems, etc.) are measured separately for CO accountability.

    The 435 BACnet Gateway has been specifically designed to expose the ‘router’, ‘group’ and ‘device’ parameters from Helvar routers in a designated workgroup through the TCP/IP network. The BACnet/IP BMS can use this information to control and monitor the lighting, energy and environmental conditions.

    1.2.2. Button and switches The BACnet Gateway is fitted with a recessed button for rebooting the unit, and with a bank of four DIP switches. The bank of DIP switches is not functional in this version. While the reset button does not erase any configuration, we recommend that you use it only if the software reboot fails.
  • Page 8: System Overview

    The BACnet Gateway provides direct interface between Helvar routers, including the devices connected to them (such as ballasts, LED drivers, luminaires and sensors), and a BACnet/IP BMS. Thus, the BACnet/IP BeMS can access the values recorded in the Helvar 905, 910 and 920 routers and in the DALI devices.

    It operates on a client/server principle: the BACnet Gateway is the server, and either a BACnet device or the BACnet Explorer is the client. The network uses standard cat 5e cabling to transfer ‘service’ requests from each client to the server, which performs the service and then reports the result to the client.

    Installation This section explains the process of fitting the 435 BACnet Gateway in the required position and location. It also describes how to connect the cables to ensure that the unit can communicate via the BACnet/IP BeMS network and the connected devices. Finally, it gives the specific wiring conventions used by the connected communications protocols and the hardware fitted to the unit.
