Rockwell Automation 20-COMM-B BACnet MS/TP Adapter - Manual (Page 37)

Chapter
4
Using BACnet Objects
Chapter 4 provides information about controlling a compatible
PowerFlex 7-Class drive using BACnet objects.
BACnet nodes are controlled and monitored by the use of several types
of objects. The BACnet controller performs read and write commands to
these objects, and the adapter transfers/translates the data between these
objects and the drive.
When a read or write command occurs to a specific object, data in the
object is refreshed from or transferred to the drive.
The BACnet object types that are supported by the adapter are:
• Analog Input (AI)
• Analog Output (AO)
• Analog Value (AV)
• Binary Input (BI)
• Binary Output (BO)
• Binary Value (BV)
