I'm involved in a project where the HVAC control company wants to use a BACnet based control system. We are installing a Crestron control system and would like to use the Crestron approved Modbus modules to communicate with the BACnet based system. I was informed that there is a Modbus to BACnet data converter that allows the two protocols to communicate and share data.
I have been unable to find such a device. Help!

 

Check out Fieldserver ( "www.fieldserver.com":http://www.fieldserver.com )

They have a converter that is supposed to be able to do just that. I hope so, as I've recently ordered one and have yet to try it to make sure!

The fieldserver product is a good answer... I have used the Allen-Bradley DF-1 to BACnet flavor and it worked great. The setup was some what tricky, but Tech. support was helpful.
