Hi Dojo - while documenting future integration scenarios, I've come come across a device exposing data over the BACnet protocol [UDP port 47808 - ASHAE Standard 135-2024 (SSPC 135) / https://www.iso.org/standard/92057.html ]
Would this be something for which a "Generic BACnet" DM protocol could be created, rather than a device-specific driver?
This standard is not an IETF one, it has some similarity to SNMP - but ISO standardized.
This is how I'm currently mapping the concepts around it:
SNMP: Agent + MIB → OIDs → GET/SET
BACnet: Device + PICS(*)/object model → Objects/Properties → Read/WriteProperty
(*)PICS stands for:
Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (seems similar to a MIB to me)
It's essentially a manufacturer's declaration of what BACnet functionality their device implements
Given that a Generic SNMP was implemented in the past, I'm jut looking for advice if an attempt for a Generic BACnet could be viable - anyone aware of any BACnet integrations already done in DM?
Thanks
