Page 5: Introduction
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. -
Page 6: Device Limits And Compatibility
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. -

Activity LED 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. Helvar 435 BACnet Gateway: User Guide... -
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. -
Page 9: Helvar Devices And Dali Networks
1.3.1. Helvar devices and DALI networks The Helvar 905, 910 and 920 routers use the Ethernet connection as a network backbone to combine DALI, SDIM and DMX networks. The DALI and SDIM networks appear as Helvar router subnets in the 435 browser interface. -

2.2. Connect to the 435 BACnet Gateway Installation Leaflet After the BACnet Gateway has been correctly installed (see the supplied with Installation Guide each unit or the ), you need to configure the communication protocols and the required parameters. Each unit is supplied with a default IP address that identifies the unit on the IP network. You must replace this IP address with a unique IP address as required by the applicable local network policy. -
