BACnet Protocol
The Building Automation and Control Network (BACnet and ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 135-2004)
protocol is a standard that allows building automation systems or components from different
manufacturers to share information and control functions. BACnet provides building owners the
capability to connect various types of building control systems or subsystems together for a variety
of reasons. In addition, multiple vendors can use this protocol to share information for monitoring
and supervisory control between systems and devices in a multi-vendor interconnected system.
The BACnet protocol identifies standard objects (data points) called BACnet objects. Each object
has a defined list of properties that provide information about that object. BACnet also defines a
number of standard application services that are used to access data and manipulate these objects
and provides a client/server communication between devices. For more information on BACnet
protocol, refer to “Additional Resources,” p. 25.
Rotary Switches
There are three rotary switches on the front of the BCI-C device that are used to define a three-digit
address when the BCI-C is installed on a BACnet communications network. The three-digit address
setting is the BACnet MAC address.
Note: All devices are MSTP masters with valid MAC addresses of 001 to 127 for BACnet.

Important: Each device on the BACnet/ MSTP link must have a unique rotary switch setting, otherwise, communication problems will occur.

BCI-C Alarming
The BCI-C unit has three binary input points that are used for communicating alarms and one binary
output point that is used to reset alarms remotely. Those inputs and output points are:
• BI 23; Alarm Present– This object indicates if any alarms are active regardless of severity. A
notification will be sent to any recipients of the Information Notification Class object when the
point transitions from No Alarm to Alarm.
• BI 24; Shutdown Alarm Present– This object indicates if any alarms that result in the
shutdown of the chiller are active. A notification will be sent to any recipients of the Critical
Notification Class object when the point transitions from No Alarm to Alarm.
• BI 25; Last Diagnostic– The active text of this object will reflect the description of the last
diagnostic to occur on the chiller.
• BO 2; Remote Diagnostic Reset Command– This object is used to remotely reset
diagnostics on the chiller. Immediately after commanding this point value to 1, the BCI-C will
send the reset command to the chiller and set this point value back to 0 and clear the priority
array.
Note: Not all diagnostics are able to be reset remotely. Some will require local reset at the chiller
front panel.

baud rate
The number of signaling elements that occur each second
during electronic data transmission. At slow speeds, baud
indicates the number of bits per second that are
transmitted. For example, 500 baud means that 500 bits
are transmitted each second (abbreviated 500 bps). At
higher speeds, multiple bits may be encoded with each
electrical change. For example, 4,800 baud may allow
9,600 bits to be sent each second. Data transmission
rates at high speeds are generally expressed in bits per
second (bps) rather than baud. For example, a 9,600 bps
modem may operate at only 2,400 baud.
