1. What is BACnet Gateway?

• BACnet Gateway provides a seamless connection
between the Daikin D3-net system and a BACnet protocol
based Building Management System (BMS)

1. What is BACnet Gateway?

• BACnet is:
– the acronym for Building Automation and Control network
– an open data communication protocol which has been
developed by ASHRAE (= American Society of Heating,
Refrigerating and Air-conditioning Engineers)
– a “design standard”: companies wishing to be compatible with
this standard must follow the design guides as described by
ASHRAE
– adopted by ANSI (= American National Standards Institute)
– an implementation of an open network system

2. Overview main features

• Monitoring of air-conditioning equipment; following actions are
possible:
Function Description

Monitoring ON/OFF Status Monitors ON/OFF status of the respective air conditioners.
only
Alarm Sign Monitors whether air conditioners are operating normally and, if not, sends out an alarm
sign.
Error Code Displays error code if an abnormality occurs in the system.
Operation Mode Monitors status of cooling, heating and ventilation operation.
Room Temperature Monitors room temperature and displays the actual room temperature.
Filter Limit Checks the limit of filters in use and monitors if there is a necessity to replace the filters.
Thermostat Status Monitors whether the thermostat in the air conditioner is operating properly.
Compressor Status Monitors whether compressors in outdoor units are operating properly.
Indoor Fan Status Monitors whether fans in the air conditioners are operating properly.
Heater Operation Status Monitors whether heaters in the air conditioners are operating properly.
PPD data Electric total power (number of indoor unit) as an object of accumulator.

Description
Starts and stops the respective air conditioners and monitors control
results.
Sets the operation mode and monitors the setting results.
Sets room temperatures and monitors the setting results.
Checks whether filter limit has exceeded and resets the sign if necessary.
Sets the permission/rejection function of remote controllers in order not to
allow operation control from the remote controllers.
Sets the control permission/rejection function of centralized devices
connected on the D3-net.
Sets the airflow rate and monitors the setting results.
Sets the air direction and monitors the setting results.
Upon receiving a Forced OFF Command, checks whether it is a normal
reset or forced OFF and then operates as necessary.
Upon receiving a Thermostat OFF command, checks whether it is a reset
or set and then monitors setting results.
Upon receiving an Energy Efficiency Setting command, checks whether it
is a reset or set and then monitors setting results.

2. Overview main features

• PPD data:
– Power Proportional Distribution (PPD) data can now be transmitted via
the BACnet communication system to the BMS
– This functions requires the optional DAM412B51 board for connecting
kWh-meters to register power consumption (more on this in the
commissioning chapter)
