New (and Edit) file export window

This window prepares files for export.

Figure 206. Add window in Bacnet File Export Manager

To open this window, expand Config > Drivers in the Nav tree followed by expanding the BACnet network Local Device, double-clicking the Export Table node and clicking New.

Property	Value	Description
Name	read-only	Identifies the object (point, export folder, etc.) including an `Object Id` and `Instance Number` or property identifier, which ensures a unique name. This name is in the format: objectType_<instance number> For example and `Event State` may be named: AHU1–Frz_Stat-eventState. Refer also to `Object Id`, `Instance Number`.
Object Name	text	Identifies a BACnet object. This name should be unique within this specific device. For components, this name includes the entire component path under the station’s Config using period (.) delimiters between parent.child levels. This enforces (externally) the BACnet requirement for unique names for all objects in a device. For a proxy point, this is the default name in the station. You can shorten or edit `Object Name`, however, each `Object Name` must be unique among all server descriptors under the Export Table. This is the name of the export file, which, by default, includes only the filename and extension.
Object Type	read-only	Reports the type of object.
Inst Num	number in the range from 0 to 4194302	Provides a unique number to combine with a device’s `Object Id`. Together, these properties form the `Device Id`. The `Instance Number` must be unique within the BACnet internetwork for each entity: components, devices, points, schedules, analog inputs, files, groups, multi state inputs, trend logs, SVO (Structured View Object), etc. The driver automatically increments this value when adding multiple entities. Refer to `Object Id`.
Export Ord	ord (defaults to the format used is the numeric handle instead of slot, which is better if the source object gets renamed)	Defines the location of the source component or file using standard file Ord notation. In an Edit window, you can access a more meaningful ord by clicking the right-side folder control. This produces a popup Select Ord window, showing the component’s location in the station’s component tree hierarchy.
Description	text	Provides additional information, which could include the camera’s geographical location or other unique information.
