BACnet PTP Serial Driver Manual

Appendix C. Vendor Information

Appendix C.1. McQuay

McQuay Units are shipped with a default Device instance of the last 6 digits of the McQuay Serial
number.

Appendix C.2. Trane

When new points are added to the FieldServer it is important to restart the Summit Workstation or BCU,
otherwise these new points may not be seen by the FieldServer.
Disconnect the FieldServer from the BACnet network when transferring images to the BCU.
Connection to a Trane BCU requires the purchase of a RTS to DB9M convertor. This is available from
Sierra Monitor (Part # FS-8917-02).

Appendix C.3. Liebert

Polling BACnet addresses that are not configured for Liebert systems may cause the connection to fail in
older versions of Liebert. Please contact your Liebert supplier for more information.

Appendix C.4. Automated Logic Corporation

When an ALC module is powered up, and it does not detect valid BACnet/MSTP traffic on its MSTP port,
then the module goes into a terminal mode and MSTP communications will not be initiated.
When connecting the FieldServer to an ALC BACnet/MSTP module, always start the FieldServer first.
Wait until the RUN Led is flashing on the FieldServer before powering up the MSTP module.

Appendix C.5. Honeywell EBI

Honeywell EBI cannot process EventNotifications with ACK_Required set to 1. The ACK_Required
property of Notification Class Map Descriptors configured for use with EBI must therefore be set to 0.
