Overview

Introduction

When the device is integrated into a BACnet system through a Milesight gateway with the BACnet feature enabled, the BMS can read device status and write supported parameters via BACnet objects.

This document lists the supported BACnet objects, object types, default values, value ranges, engineering units, and remarks for WT201 and WT211 smart thermostats.

Prerequisites

Before using the BACnet objects listed in this guide, ensure that the following prerequisites are met:

  • The thermostat has been installed, powered on, and configured according to the user guide.
  • The thermostat is added to a Milesight LoRaWAN® gateway and has joined the network.
  • The Milesight gateway has updated the payload codec to the latest version.
  • The Milesight gateway network server and BACnet features are enabled and configured correctly.
  • The BMS can communicate with the Milesight gateway through BACnet/IP.
  • The required BACnet objects have been enabled or added on the gateway BACnet object page.
Important: The thermostat does not connect directly to a BACnet network by itself. BACnet integration is implemented through a Milesight LoRaWAN® gateway with the BACnet feature enabled.

How to Read the Object List

Column Description
Object Name Name of the BACnet object displayed or configured in the gateway/BMS.
Object Type BACnet object type. See BACnet Object Type below.
Default Value Default value of the object after the device is reset or initialized.
Range Value Supported value range or enumerated values for writable objects. For objects with enumerated values, the BMS should write the numeric value rather than the text label.
Unit Engineering unit. The number in brackets indicates the BACnet engineering unit identifier used by the gateway, such as °C (62).
Remark Additional description, functional note, or related parameter name.

BACnet Object Type and Access Mode

The following BACnet object type abbreviations and corresponding access modes are used in this guide.

Abbreviation BACnet Object Type Access Mode
AI Analog Input R
AO Analog Output W
AV Analog Value RW
BI Binary Input R
BO Binary Output W
BV Binary Value RW
CSV Character String Value R
MSI Multi-state Input R
MSO Multi-state Output W
MSV Multi-state Value RW
Access Mode Description
R Read-only. The BMS can read the object value.
W Write-only. The BMS can write a value to trigger an action or configure a parameter.
RW Read/Write. The BMS can read the current value and write a supported value.
Note: Write operations may change HVAC operation. Verify the target object, value range, engineering unit, and current control permission before writing any value from the BMS.
