To communicate with the SCADA Engine’s BACnet Device Simulator, follow these procedures:
1. Open the file all_object_types.dat in the Simulator.
2. In the driver, add the device manually with the following parameters:
- Device address: 1
- IP: IP address or machine’s name (don’t use ‘localhost’ or ‘127.0.0.1’)
- Network address: 20
- MAC: 010000000000
- Segmentation support: transmit/receive
3. Configure the Ethernet tab as follows:
- Transport: UDP/IP
- IP: same IP configured in the device
- Port: 47808
When using Elipse E3, simply import the tags via Tag Browser’s Generic BACnet device folder, changing the character from ‘#’ to ‘0’, and set up the Device field as ‘1:’.
When using Elipse SCADA, simply set up the tags according to the driver’s manual.
