BACnet Source Code Stack

What Is BACnet?

BACnet™ is the international standard for data communications in building automation and control. If you have a need to connect to a BACnet controller or read and write BACnet devices, there are two choices. Spin it in-house or buy a solution. An in-house development is not impossible but meeting the BTL standard (BACnet Test Laboratory) is usually more time consuming and expensive than it appears. A proven industry solution is a low-risk, fast to market, economically smart decision.

When you integrate our BACnet Source Code Stack into your device, you jumpstart the conversion of your devices to BACnet. With this easy-to-implement, single task, standard C solution that can be customized for your I/O and data requirements, you accelerate your time to market and conserve precious development resources that can be used on other software tasks.

What You Get?

Our BACnet development kit is a set of modular software components that provide BACnet/IP server functionality (your device acting as a BACnet device), BACnet/IP client functionality (your device as a BACnet controller), BACnet MS/TP master functionality (your device as an RS-485 master) and BACnet MS/TP slave functionality (your device as an RS-485 slave). Your device can support any of these operation modes using the same code base.

The royalty-free, BACnet Source Code Stack development kit from Real Time Automation interfaces with your embedded application through simple function calls. The development kit includes everything you need to implement your BACnet solution: no ongoing royalties, single task source code, sample objects, a BACnet scanner tool, a ready-to-run sample application, complete documentation and much more.

OK, Why Real Time Automation?

Your best solution for BACnet is Real Time Automation. The RTA BACnet Source Code Stack is a single task solution for BACnet. This solution was built from the ground up specifically for embedded microcontroller applications. It has an incredibly straight forward, easy to understand API that makes integration of BACnet into your device almost effortless.

The support and responsiveness or our support team are second to none. You receive support from the engineers who use the code every day in real BACnet products. When you call RTA, you won’t get an automated voice or be redirected to some foreign country. You get a live, industry-recognized BACnet expert. That is the RTA difference.

What does Royalty-Free Mean?

BACnet Source Code is licensed on a one-time fee basis, meaning you pay one time, upfront for license and integration. After that, whether you sell two products or 2 million products featuring that code, you never owe RTA another dime.

The license provides for the unrestricted use of the development libraries, and their code components, for the development of BACnet products to be resold in binary form. The development source code, libraries and components may not be resold or sublicensed.

License fees include fully commented source code, documentation and a one-year warranty on all code. Service and Agreement and support is provided by Real Time Automation.
