BACnet Driver Beta

Kevin.Herron · June 12, 2020, 3:15pm

General Info

The BACnet driver beta must be installed on Ignition 8.0.13 or later. After installing the module it is necessary to either edit/save the “loopback” OPC UA connection to Ignition’s own OPC UA Server (Config > OPC Client > OPC Connections) or restart the gateway all together. This will not be necessary on subsequent restarts or reconnects.

The driver implements BACnet/IP over UDP. Any access to devices on other network media types (Ethernet (ISO-8802-3), MSTP, ARCNET, etc…) must be done through a gateway/router device.

The set of BACnet Objects currently supported are:

Device
Analog Input
Analog Output
Analog Value
Large Analog Value
Binary Input
Binary Output
Binary Value
Multi-State Input
Multi-State Output
Multi-State Value

The driver models its data according to a snapshot of the in-development BACnet OPC UA Companion Specification. What this means for you is that some of the property values are modeled as structures, which are represented in Ignition as JSON via tags with the Document DataType.

Pulling data out of these is best done by building a UDT that embeds a “Source” OPC Tag and then some number of expression tags that use the jsonGet expression function to target each member of the structure you’re interested in by its path in the JSON document. An example UDT export for the Status_Flags is included. If we can collectively agree upon a parameterization scheme then we will develop further “companion” UDTs for other structured property values.

The Status_Flags Node is a special case and its members are also available as individual Nodes underneath it in the OPC browser:

However… Even if you don’t need the companion UDTs, it’s still recommended that you develop your own UDTs on a per-object basis that use only the properties required by your application in order to minimize the traffic between Ignition and each BACnet device. In the best case scenario only Present_Value and Status_Flags properties are used because these properties can be accessed via COV subscription rather than polling (if the device supports COV). All other properties must be polled periodically.

Setup

Configure a Local Device

Before you can start communicating with a remote device you must first configure a “Local Device”, representing Ignition’s presence as a BACnet device on some network. This is done under Config > BACNET > Local Devices in the Ignition Gateway.

Local Devices are configured by specifying a local bind address, port, broadcast address, BACnet network, and BACnet device number. A Local Device can communicate with many remote devices as long as they are reachable on the same IP network. One strategy for configuring local devices is to configure one per network adapter that will be used for communication between the Ignition gateway and remote BACnet devices.

You can also configure a local device to bind to a wildcard address such as 0.0.0.0, and in fact, this is required to receive broadcast packets from any of the remote devices you intend to communicate with. We’ve found that some devices will only respond to the BACnet Who-Is request with an I-Am that is sent to a broadcast address regardless of whether the original Who-Is was sent unicast or broadcast.

Another situation where you may need multiple local devices is when registration as foreign device with a BBMD is necessary to bridge traffic between networks. Each Local device instance can only be registered with one BBMD.

Configure a Remote Device

Once a local device has been configured a remote device can be added. This is done in the same place any other device would be added: go to Config > OPC UA > Device Connections in the Ignition Gateway and then select the BACnet/IP driver.

You must know the IP address and device number of the remote device to configure a connection. A local device that allows the broadcast and/or unicast who-Is message from Ignition to reach the remote device and the i-Am response to reach Ignition must be chosen.

UDP is a connectionless protocol so a device is considered “connected” or “initialized” once Ignition has sent a Who-Is, received an I-Am, and then interrogated the remote device for some basic properties, including its object list and the supported properties of each object.

The object and properties are cached and subsequent connection attempts will only re-read them if the Database_Revision property changes. You can invalidate the browse data under the “More” menu for a given device (Config > OPC UA > Device Connections) on the devices page in the Ignition Gateway.

Things we’d like community feedback on (besides obvious bugs):

Is there some device or network topology that the current driver settings don’t allow you to connect to?
Is there some unsupported BACnet Object you really need?
Can we come to a consensus on what a set of useful “companion” UDTs might look like and how they would be parameterized?
Any other functionality you’d like to see?

dsoucy · June 16, 2020, 8:28pm

Is there any way to get it to run without a licence so we can help to test it ?

Kevin.Herron · June 16, 2020, 8:33pm

You can run it on an unlicensed full version of Ignition. ~~It’s no longer in beta but your feedback is still welcome.~~

Edit: mixed this up with a post about the Omron FINS beta

Are Broadcast messages required to establish a connection? I created a device, but the state stays ‘Uninitialized’ and the logs only tells me:

Starting discovery, searching for device number=1051 @ 10.224.63.60:47808...

A quick test with Wireshark shows no traffic from the gateway to the device address. The same device works with an other BacNet OPC-UA Server that is running on the same server as Ignition.

This is my local device:

Kevin.Herron · June 17, 2020, 12:11pm

Broadcast shouldn’t be required. There should be a who-Is message sent to both the broadcast address and directly to the IP of the remote device.

I’m not sure 0.0.0.0 is a valid broadcast address. I think in this case it should be 10.224.255.255, but I may also need to add a field for the net mask.

dsoucy · June 17, 2020, 2:03pm

So it can not run on Ignition Edge ?

Kevin.Herron · June 17, 2020, 2:31pm

I think it would run on a licensed version of Edge… let me get back to you, I need to find out if the BACnet driver should get added to some kind of Edge module whitelist.

Kevin.Herron · June 17, 2020, 4:06pm

Ok, I have confirmed, my LocalDevice fails to initialize with a broadcast address of 0.0.0.0. I will see about a better indication that a LocalDevice instance has failed to initialize.

You should have something like this in the logs:

E [c.i.i.d.b.LocalDeviceManager  ] [16:05:27]: Error initializing LocalDevice "ppp0". bindAddress=10.100.70.21, bindPort=47808, networkNumber=1, deviceNumber=1000

Good keep me updated ! We like to use raspberry for beta testing

chi · June 18, 2020, 9:34am

I do not see this log entry, even with LocalDeviceManager set to trace.

Changing the Broadcast Address to 10.224.127.255 had no effect:

BacnetIpClient	18Jun2020 11:30:18	Starting discovery, searching for device number=1051 @ 10.224.63.60:47808...

I’m testing in a 8.0.13 trial version with BacNet Module 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT (b2020061602)

Kevin.Herron · June 18, 2020, 12:33pm

Assuming 10.224.20.72 is the correct IP for one of your network adapters I have no idea why you wouldn’t at least see any traffic in Wireshark.

chi · June 18, 2020, 1:02pm

After changing the Broadcast address, i see traffic in wireshark. The configured device does not answer the ‘Who-Is’ call, maybe because it is allready connected to another Bacnet Master.
An other, similar device does answer, but the driver still says ‘Uninitialized’:

Kevin.Herron · June 18, 2020, 1:10pm

Okay, so it looks like you have one of these devices that only broadcasts its response back instead of sending it unicast.

In this case you’ll have to use 0.0.0.0 as your bind address in order to be able to receive these broadcast packets.

chi · June 18, 2020, 1:16pm

Okay, with the new bind address, i see more traffic, but still no connection. It is intentional that the server requests properties from devices that are not configured?

That’s part of the “connection” process and AFAIK that is a mandatory property.

I just realized that there is now an error logged:

Can you DM me the Wireshark capture?

Kevin.Herron · June 18, 2020, 1:38pm

I’m not sure what’s going on yet.

Can restart Ignition (just to start clean), turn the top-level loggers for “com.inductiveautomation.ignition.drivers.bacnet” and “com.serotonin.bacnet4j” to DEBUG and then send me the logs as it tries to connect again?

I have to go for now, I’ll check back in a couple hours.
