Integrating BACnet Fire 3rd Party Devices Through Online Discovery

Scenario

Desigo CC is connected to BACnet Fire 3rd party devices, and you want to run the online discovery. For background information on BACnet Fire 3rd party devices, see the reference section.

Performing an offline configuration is recommended instead if you want to import data into Desigo CC through an EDE file that addresses complex and non-standard configuration requirements.

  • The BACnet Fire 3rd Party extension module is installed and included in the active project. The following extension is also selected automatically:
    • Fire Domain Libraries Common
