How do I read a device on a Bacnet network using a BACNET ROUTER?

Hello, I am trying to read data from a “BAC-9001” by connecting it via Bacnet to a “BAC-5051AE” router. I have configured this router as a BACnet/IP device. I also configured it as a local device.

I have also confirmed that I can read data from this same router, such as its name, status, etc. I did this using a tag from Ignition Designer.

However, I cannot find the VAV controller (BAC-9001) in the object list folder. I have confirmed that it is correctly connected to the router using the router's web interface, sending data and observing it change to the assigned position.

I would like to know if anyone has tried the same thing or something similar.

You should just need to create one Remote Device using the Router’s IP address with the Remote Device Number (Instance) set to 1006.

Keep in mind that if you add more device connections to the Router you will need to create a separate BACnet Remote Device for each device.

Thank you very much! It's working. Continue adding more devices using the IP address but implementing the corresponding device instance.
