BACnet (Building Automation and Control Network) is an open communication protocol used in building automation systems. It allows equipment from different manufacturers—like HVAC systems, lighting controls, security systems, fire alarms, and elevators—to communicate with each other on the same network. Key points: Standardized: Defined by ASHRAE Standard 135. Interoperable: Enables devices…
