The Bacnet Aws Config Manager (Figure A.16) is the default view for the Config device extension under any BacnetAwsDevice (BacnetAwsConfigDeviceExt).
This view provides all the same features as the regular Bacnet Config Manager. For details, see About the Config Device Ext container, and About Bacnet Config objects).
The Bacnet Aws Config Manager also provides two additional buttons:
-
Create
To create one or more new BACnet object in the remote BACnet device. A popup New dialog allows for selection of BACnet object type and numbers to add.
-
Delete
To delete selected BACnet object(s) in the remote BACnet device.
The selected BACnet device must support such operations for these buttons to be available, otherwise they remain dimmed. Figure A.17 shows the default New dialogs from selecting an Analog Value type object to create in the BACnet device.
Name is the BACnet object name, and will also be the Niagara name for the Config object created in the station. Typically
you change the name from defaults, e.g. “BacnetAnalogValue” as shown above.
Enter a valid instance number for the Object ID, replacing the default -1 value. This number should be unique from any other instance (of the same object type) in this device. For example, if the device already has Analog Value objects, using instance numbers 0 through 5, enter unique
Object ID instance number(s) above 5. Instance number range is from 0 to 4194302.
