Is it possible to address bacnet deviceId?
Currently, I see how to address 10.10.10.100 and all reads came from SADR 0 in my case 1601000, but I need address the other devices.

Example bacnet

Good day .
I am sorry if this has been posted many times or it is the wrong place to ask this, but for the lack of my knowledge I cannot find any tutorial online as to how exactly setup and type in the correct ip addresses to read a simple BACnet query

Node red is running on home assistant - 192.16.10.200
Bacnet.Room.Simulator is running on 192.16.10.60

I used the simple example
https://discourse.nodered.org/t/newbie-guide-for-node-red-bacnet-ip/54735

Either i get a --"Error: BacnetError Class: SERVICES (5) Code: REJECT_UNRECOGNIZED_SERVICE (67)"--
or a --"Error: ERR_TIMEOUT"--

It would be really appreciated if you could give me a example as to what i need to change where and what goes where.
Thank you very much in advance

"Error: ERR_TIMEOUT" ? Hard to debug

Which node-red-contrib-bacnet version are you using?

0.2.7

What happened?

Trying a basic BACNet-read
but keep getting:
"Error: ERR_TIMEOUT"

I've tested with Yet Another Barcnet Explore (Yabe) - it work fine and can browse the bacnet device and list

Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

How can this be reproduced?

First configured BACNET Client. Selected inteterface IP of node-red instance and set broadcast address.
Set BACHNET Device = ip address of remote device (bacnet device)
Added BACNet-read node and selected Bacnet-client and Bacnet-device.

I'm really in doubt on what to fill in on these field on the BACNet-read node
Type: ?
Instance: ? (tried 20011 as this is device-id shown in Yabe)
Property id: ? (tried 85)

What did you expect to happen?

Respons from the bacnet device.

BACnet Write node test

Hello,
I'm using your great BACnet toolbox and have some suggestions.
For the BACnet Write node, would be nice to have one more configuration element: bacnetValueType of written value. Can be selected from list, like "Type" property. Now I have to add it via function block.

This type is "BACNET_APPLICATION_TAG_xx" from https://github.com/stargieg/bacnet-stack/blob/master/include/bacenum.h
I suggest to use YABE (Yet Another Bacnet Explorer) for everyone, for finding right configuration values of BACnet points needed to read/write.

So bacnetValueType=4 in my function block.

There is my flow:

Can't reset (or send NULL) to an analog_value

Which node-red-contrib-bacnet version are you using?

0.2.7 running in Raspberry pi 2

What happened?

Frankly speaking I'm not sure if this is a bug or not. I want to reset (write NULL) in analog_value property (85: present_value) in priority 8 (manual operation). When sending a blank instead of any value for APP_TAG 4 (REAL) I would expect to remove the value in the priority array, but instead appears 0.

How can this be reproduced?

I successfully read and write properties to different analog_values in my bacnet device (PLC). I always modify property 85 (present value) with priority 8 (manual operation). The issue comes when I want to "reset" this value and remove the value in that position of the priority array. From the bacnet documentation, I understand I have to send NULL to that paticular property and priority, which is indeed what I successfully do with YABE (Yet Another Bacnet Explorer); I simply select property 85 and priority 8 and leave the value to write in blank. When I replicate that in nodered the value written is 0, not null or void, which is not equivalent. I have tried sending directly APP-TAG NULL but I receive this error: "Error: getEnumName() can only be passed an integer value, was given "NaN"". I also tried to send literally NULL as value for REAL type but I receive a timeout error. Is this a bug or am I not understading how to use the write function?

Many thanks for the work done!

Bacnet Write

Hi
Thanks for the great work. The read is working fine but cannot get write to work correctly. Please see screenshots and error. Any advice is appreciated

It needs contributors! Get started with Gitpod!

Help to fix the code!

Are you familiar with BACnet and JavaScript? Great!
Please, help that project named node-bacnet (npm name) to grow faster!

BACnet write priority Relase

hello
I found a little bug in the App-tag Setings. in fact, with the value "NULL", the number 0 is not entered in the field, its entering NULL. This means that the written array cannot be released again. It works if the number 0 is entered by hand. But it works for the rest of the entries.

I am using the following version:

/bacnet/ObjectTypes not accesible with adminAuth and httpAdminRoot

Which node-red-contrib-bacnet version are you using?

0.2.7

What happened?

• When enabling adminAuth in node red settings, the objet list "/bacnet/ObjectTypes" goes 401
• When enabling httpAdminRoot in node red settings, the objet list "/bacnet/ObjectTypes" goes 404

How can this be reproduced?

In node-redsettings enable httpAdminRoot or adminAuth

I am successfully able to connect to a BACnet Simulator
but I am not able to read the present value from it

I am attaching the snapshot of the configuration I made and the response from the servers

Kindly help.

Error: BacnetError Class: SERVICES (5) Code: REJECT_UNRECOGNIZED_SERVICE (67)

Which node-red-contrib-bacnet version are you using?

0.2.6

What happened?

I imported the example of the BACnet room simulator yabe, changed the Device to my simulator's IP.After deploying, I got the error of "Error: BacnetError Class: SERVICES (5) Code: REJECT_UNRECOGNIZED_SERVICE (67)"

How can this be reproduced?

I was running the Room Control Simulator on a Win10 machine, Yabe can find the simulator on the same machine.

Imported the example of the BACnet room simulator yabe, changed the Device to my simulator's IP.

Then changed the BACnet client like the followings:

ERR_TIMEOUT

Hello,
I am trying to use thid node and have a problem and a question.
Problem:
I can set up the bacnet read node, and it works well.
But when I try to use bacnet write, and I probably use it the wrong way, bacnet read gives this error: ERR_TIMEOUT.
Question: Can you upload some howto about the bacnet write? Maybe a sample code.

BACnet Multiple Write Feature not working

Which node-red-contrib-bacnet version are you using?

0.2.7

What happened?

I am trying to use the multiple-write feature, but it is not working. Following the documentation, the function node should be set up as:

Where type should be replaced by "tag". When using "tag", it raises an error:

Error: Cannot encode a value if the type has not been specified

If I use 'type' instead, it raises an error:

Error: BacnetError Class: DEVICE (0) Code: CONFIGURATION_IN_PROGRESS (2)

Have anyone tried multiple-write?

How can this be reproduced?

Import .json to reproduce the behaviour.

It should not raise an error and write the values into the BACnet instances.

Using a JACE8000 as BACnet device. I already created a flow for multiple-reading from the BACnet network, it is working normally.

Problem with reading Change_State_Time with Bacnet Read Node

I'm submitting a issue regarding Bacnet reading node, when I try to read Change_State_Time I do get values which are incorrect, I can see the correct values in YABE and our EBO software but I don't get correct values when I try to read it through node-red, and this problem is happening for all the points.

Current behavior

Expected behavior

Hi,

Thanks for this node,

I get this error in node-red, Here is my flow.
Error: "Error stopping node: TimeoutError: timed out after 15000ms" and no data is being read from bacnet JACE device, only way to remedy this is to reboot the raspberry pi, and on next re-deployment, same error comes up.

client.js ignores Client>IPAddress setting in node-red and uses ALL_INTERFACES='0.0.0.0' resulting in bind EACCES error.

Problem

• (x) bug report (possibly, but unsure)
• (x) unexpected behavior (using node-bacnet lib and supplying the interface IP works)

Current behavior
My setup has multiple IP's on the same Network Interface in the same Subnet /22, the first IP 192.168.252.234 is used by another BACnet client and the second is free 192.168.252.235 intended to be used by node-red-contrib-bacnet.

• in this senario, the library cannot bind exclusively only to the second IP address, instead tries to bind to all and fails everytime with "Error: ERR_TIMEOUT"

Expected behavior

• should be able to bind the the specified IP in the Interface>Client>IP_address

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions

• Simple BACnet Read Flow attached (file extn. changed to .txt to allow attaching)
  BACrpm.txt

1. First set the interface with 2 IP addresses atleast and then assign the first one to another Program like YABE or backstack from skarg, the second free IP use that for the node-red-contrib-bacnet.

2. Make a simple Read Prop Request to a BACnet Device and instantaly after the ADPU times out we get the "Error: ERR_TIMEOUT" message, this is the correct failure as we are not bound to any interface.

3. I'm noticing that the lib tries to bind to 0.0.0.0 as seen in the file .node-red\node_modules\node-bacnet\lib\client.js line 18 where the const ALL_INTERFACES = '0.0.0.0'; is set , also needed is line 20 where the const BROADCAST_ADDRESS = '255.255.255.255';

4. Inside node-red setting the Inteface>Client>IP_address seems to have no effect as it alwalys tries to bind to ALL_INTERFACES IP 0.0.0.0 , which can also result in a Error: bind EACCES as the interface IP is already in use by another client (as seen in the console if node-red is restarted after IP address change and Deployed.

5. Dirty workaround is to set line 18 with const ALL_INTERFACES = '192.168.252.235'; as in my case and line 20 to const BROADCAST_ADDRESS = '192.168.255.255'; since i have a /22 subnet

BACnet write priority settings missing

Hello,
I was playing with this node and saw there is no option to set the priority yet.
Do you ave any plan to enable it in the future or could I make the modification and do a Pull request ?
Thanks.

Ps I am just playing with a rpi as slave (modbus, BACnet, mqtt, ...) and a windows pc (node-red) at home.

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

COV is supported by the node-bacnet library and could be implemented in the package as a cov-bacnet node.

Device ID Question

Dear Sir:

First let me start by saying that this is the first time I am ever trying to work with Node-Red at all. I am a Building Automation Control Guy with 20 years of experience working in the field and have been working with Bacnet in and out every day for the past 8 years as my primary language.

What I am trying to do is I have a customer who has a very simplistic thermostat based system setup that currently is all stand-alone that was all installed by the previous building owners, so they inherited the system when they moved in. The system currently has no Building Management Device installed and so is completely stand-alone. The issue they are running into is when there is a power outage all of thermostats resort back to factory default date and wait for a time sync from the network...which never comes as there is no management device. So I am just needing a simple device to install to preform this task..thus I am looking into Node-red and your Pallet as a simple way to get that done.

The issue that I am running into, and I probably just don't know what I'm doing, is that when you go to configure the Bacnet Command block with the Time Sync function you are asked for a device...which I don't see a way to define...an example is given of an IP address and this may work if all of your devices were straight Bacnet/IP devices but using straight IP addresses is not standard for Bacnet Transit Packets which is what leaves me confused, for like in my building system all of the devices are MSTP (RS-485 Network Based) devices. I can install a router to get from Bacnet/IP to the MSTP network but to send to each individual device I would need to identify each thermostat as its Bacnet ID on the Network, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.

Can you please assist with this? Also, I see that you are looking for sponsorship and that your product is still in Beta. I would be willing to support you if you can support me.

Thank You,

Andy Burch

How do you specify the object id in the node settings of the object type you are trying to read ?

Hello, have been trying to implement a simple BACnetr read , got the basic BACnet command node for a simple whois to work, but could not figure out how to do a simple read_prop of the same device , in particular as an example to get the PresentValue(85) of Object analog_value(2) with Object_Id(4) from Device(7682)

without giving the device ip i get Error: ERR_TIMEOUT in the Debug while with the ip i get Error: BacnetError - Class:0 - Code:0

But in the BACnet Read node there is no setting for the object_id.

If possible an example flow of the 3 working nodes would be much helpful.

Aniston
