    SKE4 Steam Humidifier BACnet Communication Module User Guide Object Types Supported The following table lists all the BACnet properties supported for each object type. Most of the properties are locked. The exception is Present_Value, which represents the dynamic operating values of the device, and the Status_Flag, Event_State, and Reliability properties, which reflect the availability of the Present_Value.
  • Page 9: Out_Of_Service Property

    Out_of_Service Property Neptronic humidifiers offer the use of the Out_of_Service writable property. When the value of this property is set to True, it disconnects the object from the physical input, enabling you to input other values. This is useful for special applications or while troubleshooting.
