In addition to offering a secure connection to the cloud, MSA FieldServer provides a complete BACnet internetworking solution for BACnet/IP, BACnet Ethernet, and BACnet MS/TP networks. There are several ways to establish BACnet routing connections:
The FieldServer BACnet Router features two BACnet MS/TP ports and a Wi-Fi option for a BACnet/IP connection.
The dual-port BACnet Router features two RS-485 connections that allow it to connect to up to 64 BACnet devices without requiring additional line drivers. A BACnet router lowers the cost of connecting BACnet MS/TP devices to a BACnet/IP backbone and frees up important RS-485 ports on pricey BACnet controllers. Our dual-port BACnet router, compared to single-port BACnet routers, can save device connectivity costs or increase the speed of connected devices (half the response time).
With only one button press, the integrator may find all the BACnet devices connected to the router using our exclusive discovery feature, BACnet Explorer, cutting down on the time needed for smooth commissioning. Our diagnostic FieldServer Toolbox enhances this feature, enabling the user or integrator to check the status of and troubleshoot all the routers connected to the network.
Create an account on the MSA Grid interface with your BACnet Router to have remote access to local apps, configuration, and device administration.
Automated discovery of all BACnet devices linked to a BACnet network can reduce commissioning time.
The most compliant and high-quality BACnet stack facilitates interoperability and lowers troubleshooting time.
Provides the best performance (reaction time) or lowest cost per connected device, respectively.
The integrator’s installation time is reduced by one page set and forget configuration and unique network discovery capabilities.
