(You can connect the trial operation PC in one of the two ways. You can use either method.): Refer to P.23 for the details.
* 1: The following conditions must be satisfied when using the 100BASE-TX straight cable:
● The 100BASE-TX straight cable (LAN straight cable) should be used. (This type of cable is sold at a common electrical store.)
● One free port should be reserved with the hub (procured locally) shown above. Also, an IP address which can be temporarily used
at the on-site test operation should be provided (ask the sales division or site).
● When only configuring the Interface for use in BACnet, you can connect the 100BASE-TX cross cable (LAN cross cable) directly to
the Interface for use in BACnet, rather than connecting the straight cable to the hub.
● You should be able to change the IP address of the trial operation PC and return to the original address after the test (refer to
P.25 for the procedure).
*: Using the 100BASE-TX straight cable for the trial operation ensures faster communication than using RS232C and allows quicker
settings.
*2: When connecting the trial operation PC to the Interface for use in BACnet using the RS232C cross cable, you must configure
the dial-up adapter and modem in advance. Refer to P.12 through P.21 for the procedure.

BACnet and trial operation PC) RS232C communication cable : Cross cable with 9 pin (female) - 9 pin (female)
1-3. Checking the version of the trial operation program installed on the PC
The trial operation program version 6.3.4.0 or higher is required for trial operation of the Interface for use in BACnet
(DMS502B51).
Check the version of the trial operation program installed on the PC before visiting the site in the following procedure.
(How to check the trial operation program version)
Right-click the trial operation program of Interface for use in BACnet [1] (program name: SetupBACnet),
and choose "Property (R)".
Click the "Version" tab [2] and confirm that the version number shown in the "File Version" field [3]
is 6.3.4.0 or higher.
Any trial operation programs with lower version than the version shown above cannot configure
Interface for use in BACnet which is in conformity with BTL. Obtain Version 6.3.4.0 or higher and install
it on the PC before the trial operation.

● Setting BACnet Broadcast
[Note]
BACnet allows two types of broadcasts; global broadcast and local broadcast (Note that they are different from
UDP/IP's broadcast). With global broadcast, messages broadcasted are sent beyond the BACnet router to other
BACnet networks. With local broadcast, messages broadcasted are not sent beyond the BACnet router but only reach
nodes within the same BACnet network. (Details of the global broadcast and local broadcast are described in Section
6.3.2 of the ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 135-2004.)
If a slow BACnet network (e.g., BACnet connected via RS232C) is connected via the BACnet router to the BACnet/IP
network where the station exists, and unregistered COVs which are sent from the station each time an air conditioner
changes its status are also propagated over the slower network, these COVs will occupy the communication line of the
slower network. Therefore, COVs need to be locally broadcasted in such a network configuration.
Note that the Who-Is/I-Am services are globally broadcasted even for BACnet/IP.

(You can connect the trial operation PC in one of the three ways. You can use any method.):
* 1: Use the 100BASE-TX straight cable. The following conditions must be satisfied when using the 100BASE-TX
straight cable:
● The 100BASE-TX straight cable (LAN straight cable) should be used. (This type of cable is sold at a common
electricalstore.) Also prepare the 100BASE-TX cross cable (LAN cross cable) which can be used when the hub is
faulty.
● One free port should be reserved with the hub (procured locally) shown above. Also, an IP address which can be
temporarily used at the on-site test should be provided (ask the sales division or site).
● You should be able to change the IP address of the trial operation PC and return to the original address after the test
(refer to the next for the procedure).
(Note) If you are executing trial operations for multiple Interface for use in BACnet using the same object, be
sure to keep the Interface for use in BACnet powered off or the 100BASE-TX cable disconnected until the
whole procedure of [4] in this manual has been completed.
(All Interface for use in BACnet have the identical IP address set at the factory. Therefore, if you connect them
to the trial operation PC via the hub using 100BASE-TX, the trial operation may not be executed properly
since their default addresses are the same.)
*: Using the 100BASE-TX straight cable for the trial operation ensures faster communication than using RS232C and
allows quicker settings.
*: If the IP address of Interface for use in BACnet has been changed from the trial operation PC and the new
address is unknown, you can only connect the Interface for use in BACnet and PC using the RS232C cross
cable (method *3).
In this case, be sure to set up the trial operation PC's modem as instructed in "3. Setting the Trial Operation
PC Modem" of [Before Visiting the Site]. (You can change connection to the 100BASE-TX cable once you find

[About Foreign Device]
If there is no BBMD(BACnet/IP Broadcast Management
Device) on the same subnet as Interface for use in BACnet,
it cannot receive broadcast messages from other subnets.
So the Interface for use in BACnet need to be set to behave
as a “Foreign Device (see BACnet Standards Annex-J ).”
By operating as a Foreign Device, it can receive broadcast
messages sent from other IP subnets via BBMD.
