Setting up a controller under the Supervisor’s network in the Supervisor station

For the data in a controller station’s database to be shared with the Supervisor station and beyond, the unique properties that configure a controller must be present as a node under the Supervisor’s BACnet network. While you may discover the controller stations, add each controller configuration as a New AWS or OWS device, or drag a BacnetAwsDevice or BacnetOwsDevice from the appropriate palette to the BACnet network node in the Supervisor station, this procedure documents using the New button on the Bacnet Aws Device Manager.
Prerequisites: You are using Workbenchrunning in a PC and connected to the Supervisor station.
  1. Expand Config > Drivers and double-click BacnetAwsNetwork.
    The Bacnet Aws Device Manager opens.
  2. Click New.
    A New window opens.
  3. Add one or more BACnet AWS devices and click OK.
    The second New window opens.

  4. Name each device and configure the Device ID, Netwk and MAC Addr (IP address) for each, then click OK.
    As a best practice, consider naming devices for the controller IP addresses. You don’t have to use the entire address, just the last two or three digits.
    The driver creates a controller network record for each controller under the Supervisor station’s BacnetAwsNetwork.
