Verasys supports the automatic discovery of third-party BACnet MS/TP controllers. When you connect a third-party controller to the system bus, its data automatically fills a predefined set of views based on the object type.
You can create profiles for third-party controllers. Profiles provide the following benefits:
- You can give BACnet points user-friendly names.
- You can rearrange the data into specific views.
- You can add BACnet extensions such as alarms, trends, and schedules.
You can export profiles from the SBH and import them into another SBH to ensure a consistent interface across multiple sites. Third-party controller integration also applies to the Verasys Enterprise cloud. Third-party data is visible in the Verasys Enterprise web user interface alongside the data from Verasys-compatible devices. Refer to Verasys BACnet MS/TP Integration Technical Bulletin (LIT-12013606).
