Connecting to Network of BACnet/IP Controllers by Wire

How to

Running the Commission mobile application on a Windows laptop computer, you can connect directly to an Ethernet port on a networked BACnet/IP controller, or use an Ethernet switch to connect to a group of controllers.

Connecting and Acquiring a Static IP Address

How to

You connect to the network and acquire an IP address so that you can communicate with the devices on that network. Most network connections used with the Commission mobile application assign an IP address to your mobile device using DHCP, which is a type of automatic addressing. However, certain Ethernet or WiFi networks may require you to use a static IP address. Consult with the network administrator to determine if a static IP address is required.

Logging on to the Commission Mobile Application

How to

You log on to the Commission mobile application to perform commissioning, flow balance, and checkout operations on BACnet/IP controllers.

Connecting to a Device through WiFi

How to

You connect to a device to begin all commissioning tasks.

Wire Sizes and Lengths

Concept

This section provides recommendations on minimum wire sizes (cross-sectional areas) and maximum wire lengths for the wires connected to the screw terminals of Central IO modules, AS-B servers, RP and MP controllers, and IP-IO modules. Recommendations on minimum wire size and maximum cable length for the digital inputs of the RP controller expansion modules, the DALI bus of the DALI light modules, the SMI Interface of the SMI blind modules, the Zigbee DALI and 0-10V modules, and the KNX Modbus gateway are also provided. The recommendations are for guidance only. Other wire sizes and lengths may be used, depending on wiring rules and when appropriate.
