Each Supervisor requires the appropriate license and modules.
AWS requirements
An BACnet AWS Supervisor and any PC running
Workbench with which to access a BACnet AWS Supervisor, requires these specific things:
-
Niagara Framework® and the driver’s bacnet, bacnetOws, and bacnetAws modules in the Framework’s
modules folder.
- A license that lists these features: bacnet, and bacnetOws, and bacnetAws. Without a license, the station’s BacnetAwsNetwork remains in fault. The license may also have limits on the number of devices, points, and so forth.
OWS requirements
A BACnet OWS Supervisor and any PC running
Workbench with which to access a BACnet OWS Supervisor, requires these specific things:
-
Niagara Framework® and the driver’s bacnet, and bacnetOws modules in the Framework’s
modules folder.
- A license that lists these features: bacnet, and bacnetOws. Without a license, the station’s BacnetOwsNetwork remains in fault. The license may also have limits on the number of devices, points, and so forth.
NOTE: Neither Supervisor is licensed for the server-side, BACnet export of objects. This is not an issue, as a BACnet workstation’s
purpose is to be the ultimate “authoritative client” to all other BACnet devices.
