Configuring monitoring 

You set client-specific monitoring parameters on this page. 
1.

 

You enable the monitoring of configured BACnet devices by setting a check mark. 

2.

 

Specify the desired monitoring interval. See section Monitoring functions (Page 42). 

 

Figure 9-9 

Monitoring 

The monitoring interval set here applies globally for all BACnet devices, for which 

communication relationships are configured. If a device is not reached in the configured 

monitoring interval, the PN/BACnet LINK issues a corresponding diagnostic. This diagnostic 

result is cleared as soon as the device is accessible again (see section Monitoring functions 

(Page 42)) 

Setting the priority for write operations 

On this page, you define the priority with which the BACnet client writes output objects 

(binary output or analog output) in referenced BACnet devices.  

 

Figure 9-10  Priority for write operations 

The priority set here applies globally to all configured write operations on objects in other 

BACnet devices. The highest priority is "1". The lowest priority is "16".
