The Modbus RTU and the TCP/IP links can be used simultaneously. A BMS system can use Modbus RTU to
the BCMS Hub and a DCIM system can use TCP/IP while web pages are simultaneously displayed over the
TCP/IP link.
Distances restrictions:
•
For Modbus RTU, cable lengths should be ≤ 2000 ft.
•
For upstream Ethernet links, apply standard Ethernet length restrictions for the cable used (Cat5, Cat5e,
etc.)
The BCMS Dual Hub has (2) separate BCMS Hub systems in the same enclosure, each with its own Monitor.
Each system has exactly the same capacity, options, and restrictions as a single BCMS Hub.

The BCMS Hub collects monitoring data from
BCMS devices
. Technically a BCMS device is a
BCMS points
list
(or Modbus register map), representing a physical component, such as a panelboard. A single BCMS PCB
can have multiple points lists and appear as multiple devices. For example, a BCMS PCB for panelboards
typically has two (2) points lists, one for each panelboard it supports.
The following equipment and BCMS devices can be monitored by a BCMS Hub, if BCMS is installed with the
monitored equipment:
•
RPPs
and
JCOMMs
, monitoring panelboards and their input feeds with any of these points lists:
•
BCMS Normal, the default points list for North American panelboards
