To integrate Data Points with Niagara, the points must be exposed over networks. By default, nano EDGE ENGINE exposes points over BACnet and Modbus.
In BACnet all Data Points are exposed as BACnet objects by default. Individual Data Points can be hidden by manually changing the Expose slot value in their BACnet extension (e.g., BACnetAnalogPoint, BACnetBinaryPoint, BACnetMultistatePoint). The BACnet object type and object Id is visible in the Data Point BACnet extension. To change the Data Point’s BACnetID, right-click on the Data Point and select the SetId action.
In Modbus all Data Points in the device are automatically exposed as the Modbus server device. In order to disable the Data Point in the Modbus server network, either set the Autoexposition slot in the Modbus component to false (all Data Points hidden), or go to each Data Point individually and set the Expose slot to false.
Modbus address is set automatically. In order to set Modbus address manually, right-click the Data Point and select the SetAddress action.
