Standard BACnet Configuration

CopperTree Device Estimation

10000 points per CopperTree device, or ~800 controllers.

What CopperTree needs to know:

  1. Gateway and Subnet for all IPs related to BAS
  2. Port number (default for BACnet is 47808)

Additional Configuration Considerations

  • Be sure the network requirement rules are added to your firewall in order to allow uninterrupted communication.

  • If the BAS is not on the same network as the outbound internet connection, a bridge will need to be configured either virtually or physically.

    • Please communicate with your CopperTree representative.

  • CopperTree devices automatically assign on the BACnet system as device ID of 659999.

    • Any additional CopperTree devices on the network will be assigned a device ID of n-1 (ex 599998), where n is the device installed beforehand.
    • If this will result in a conflict on the BACnet network, please provide a device ID to CopperTree for manual assignment.

  • Please make a note if BACnet is over IP or Ethernet. This will change the configuration by your CopperTree representative.
