Introduction
This article contains a high-level overview of Enlighted Edge’s integration with the BACnet protocol. BACnet/IP is a communications standard that allows different systems and devices manufactured by different vendors to interoperate within an intelligent building. The Enlighted Edge BACnet Agent exposes Enlighted devices and logical entities as BACnet objects organized in a hierarchal representation of the Enlighted System. Also refer to Enlighted Edge BACnet Specification.
Area Datapoints
An Area is a grouping of sensors on a floor. For every area, the following datapoints will be populated. Datapoints not used can be hidden.
